Ballarat Race 3

Alsop And Co Catering

Prize Money: $2,925

AUTUMN POPPY (2) finished well back at this track last time when a 9 length fifth (26.00) but scored three back at Geelong (22.47). The form from her last run is stacking up nicely. Better than the latest effort and deserves another chance. OZA KING (6) jumped cleanly last start and led all the way (22.92) at Warragul in a Maiden over 400m. Bold showing expected again. ASTON MANDLA (8) was below best last time when seventh but prior to that was a Maiden winner in quick time at Shepparton. Expected to bounce back to best. MISS LOOT (4) has ability and looks a top-three prospect.

Lines up from box 1 for the first time after finishing a 1.75 lengths fourth at Traralgon (20.34) in a Grade 7. Looks a place chance at best.

Latest effort finished 5th in a Mix 6/7 H on October 14 over 450m at this track behind Ken Kaneki beaten 9 lengths (26.00). Solid formlines coming through that last run. Looks a major player.

Well supported last time and gave a sight after a fast early split but could manage only the minor money, finishing a 1.5 lengths third (22.90) over 400m at Geelong. Solid chance with even luck.

Caught the eye with a fast early split and setting up a 1.2 lengths win at Warragul over 400m in 22.92. Makes plenty of appeal. Go close again.

Got back last start and could only manage seventh but before that won easily by 6 lengths at Shepparton (22.20) beating Aston Sidney in a Maiden on September 21. Leading chance on best form.
