Ballarat Race 8 - Life Members Consolation Final
LUCY SCHOOL (1) goes very well here starting 10 times for four wins and two minors. Was out of placings last time (25.84) at this track in a Special conditions H, finishing fourth and beaten 7 lengths. Looks a key chance on best figures. HIGHWAY HOOLIGAN (6) has a strong record this journey here with three wins and a minor from seven starts. Hit the frame latest (25.66) when third at this track in a Special conditions H. With even luck and a clean start should be around the money. LENORA JAMES (3) can sneak into the finish.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage seventh last time out over 410m at Horsham. Not likely to feature on this occasion.

Scored by a nose last time (26.13) in a Grade 5 over 460m at Geelong. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and two minors. Tough field and looking to others this time.
