Ballarat Race 12 - Two More Races To Go
CRACKERJACK MATT (6) brought up his 14th career win last start at Healesville (19.35). Goes very well here at the trip finding the frame in each of three starts. Sure to prove hard to beat. COME AND SEE (3) is in top form lately including a scintillating win at this track in 21.78 two back then backing it up with a 22.63 victory at Geelong over 400m latest. Top win two back and rates a key player again. CROYDON (5) missed the frame latest (22.75) when fourth over 400m at Warragul in a Free For All. Has two wins already from this draw. Looks one of the chances. PAW KRAMER (8) looks an each-way chance.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at this track over 390m in 21.99. Followed that up with a minor placing over 390m at this track at Mix 3/4 three weeks ago. Capable of a good showing.

Lifted to win two runs back and got the cash again last start over 400m at Geelong (22.63,) beating Lightning Range. Top chance to chalk-up the hat-trick.

Finished third at big odds last time (23.51) over 410m at Horsham. Will need a little luck early from the draw. Looking to others.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 4th on February 3 over 400m at Warragul behind Aston Renminbi beaten 5.5 lengths (22.75) in a Free For All. Placed two back at Shepparton. Capable of improvement on latest effort. Well placed and should feature.
