Ballarat Race 12 - Two More Races To Go

THERMAL FLICKER (4) boasts a strong record this course with three wins and three minors from seven tries. Placed last time (22.74) at Shepparton in a Rank Limit - Grade 5, finishing third and beaten 7 lengths. Looks a key chance on best form. LIKE A BLAZE (7) turned in a better run last time to find a minor placing (22.67) at this track behind Nikita Bale in a Grade 5. Settled off speed and worked to the line nicely. Leading chance. PAW FORRESTER (1) drifted back settling but did best work late to finish 5th at Warragul over 400m (23.62). Cannot be underestimated. FORBES LIGHTNING (2) can run a bold race on best form.
