Ballarat Race 9 - Happy Horse Produce
PAW QATAR (8) turned in a plain performance last time when sixth at Bendigo over 425m behind Gray Grouper (25.06) in a T3 RSTW. Scored at his previous run. The form from his last run is stacking up nicely. Can discover winning form. BIG WEEKEND (1) has a strong record this journey here with two wins and a minor from six starts. Hit the frame latest (22.74) when second at this track in a T3 Grade 6. Among the main chances. ASTON FRANCESCA (3) finished third (24.64) two back at Bendigo but out of the placings last time when 7th at Healesville. Cannot be left out. IDYLLIC MEYER (2) is worth including.

Just been plugging away and needs to improve after being unplaced in three tries. Last start 4th over 300m at Healesville. Other runners look much more appealing.
