Ballarat Race 5 - Pink Diamond Challenger Sprinter Ht4
BLUE VENDETTA (4) pinged the lids from the low draw and led until late to place (30.73) at The Meadows in a Grade 5 over 525m. Makes plenty of appeal. AMRON BOBBY (5) turned in a moderate effort last time when fifth at Warrnambool over 390m behind Cookie Man (22.58) in a Grade 5 H. Should be about the mark. SIR WHIP (6) placed three back at this track then out of the placings last couple but moves to box 6 this time where he has performed well. Expected to bounce back to best. SEE SAW LASS (8) cannot be left out after placing last start.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at The Meadows over 525m in 30.45 last start, beating Blue Vendetta. Can make it two on the bounce.

Good effort to win last start by 1.75 lengths over 390m at this track in a handy (22.41), beating Go Back. Will find this a bit tougher, tempted to look elsewhere.

Charged out of the boxes with a fast early split and led for much of the way before being grabbed late, finishing a 4 length second at The Meadows over 525m in 30.73. In the money last time and looks well placed to go one better.
