With some rain overnight and the track currently rated as heavy (8), today’s racing at Ballarat will be interesting.
The rail is out 8m for the entire circuit, which tends to favor horses that are on pace or leading..
Inside barriers (1-5) hold a slight advantage, but middle barriers (6-10) can also perform well if they secure a good position early. Off-pace runners may face challenges if the track worsens, so favor horses with proven soft track form.
Best Bet Today
Race 3 – Whitford Liquid Waste Mdn Plate – Maiden Set Weights. 4YO+ $37.5k Expected Tempo: Average
#4 IGNACIO
Few decent hit outs in the lead up to this tells me this boy is ready to fire first up.
Blinkers come on.
Past ratings will give this a right good shake.
Doesn’t mind a bit of give and will be suited up on speed
Next Best Tip
Race 5 – Benchmark 64 Handicap. 3YO+ Expected Tempo: Average
#1 TURN IT UP TOMMY
Thought Turn It Tommy would start a bit shorter here.
Was trucking home last start when he seemed to be held up at the top of the straight.
Up in distance will suit and will appreciate the conditions.
Best Each Way/Roughie
Race 7 – Sportsbet – Set A Deposit Limit Hcp (64) , Expected Tempo: Solid
#7 BAVARIAN LADY
Silly odds.
Last start was nothing flash first up but i suspect she just needed the run.
She’s one that likes it wet and she will get that here.
Can give this a shake if she can spike up to past ratings that are well in this.
