Ballarat Race 12 - Two More Races To Go
CHATTER BEAST (5) goes very well here starting five times for three wins and two minors. Hit the frame latest (17.13) when second at Healesville in a Grade 5. Rates on top and should go close. KIANI STAR (8) is better than last start when seventh (23.36) from Box 8 at Geelong over 400m. Can measure up this time. ABRACADABRA (1) finished well back at Healesville last time when a 2.25 lengths fifth (19.84) but scored five back at this track (22.39). Form here at the trip sound including four wins. Key runner who gets her chance to atone. PAW CHEYENNE (7) comes into calculations after placing most recently.

Was sent out long odds last time but charged out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 2.25 lengths fifth (19.84) over 350m at Healesville. Capable of taking this out.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (22.73) in a Grade 5, finishing a 8 length fifth. Yet to win but has placed three times from this draw. Looks a place chance at best.

Struggling to break through but racing consistently, finishing in the minors three starts on end. Last time out flew the lids with a fast early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when second (17.13) at Healesville over 300m. Rates highly and looks tough to beat.

Has been in the minor money the last two runs, the latest finishing third (22.62) at this track. Jumps from a wide draw. Solid top-three prospects.
