Ballarat Race 5 - Eureka Concrete
PAW ORENTHAL (1) turned spotting a big start finishing fourth (25.75) last time in a Mix 6/7 at Shepparton. Has a good record here including two wins. Rates on top in this line up. BORACAY BELLA (5) turned in a solid run last start over 450m at this track finishing 5th and beaten only 4.5 lengths (25.62). Solid formlines coming through her last run. Expected to feature in the finish. CACKLING SUZIE (3) looks close to another win after hitting the frame in a 6 length third (25.77) in a Bottom Up - Grade 6 at Warrnambool. Can measure up. RING (2) pinged the lids and wasn't headed at first outing. Must be respected.

Last start finished 4th over 450m at Shepparton beaten 7 lengths (25.75) behind Zipping Richie in a Mix 6/7 on April 20. Thereabouts at the last couple. Suited here and likely to run well.

Showed good early speed on debut. Won comfortably by 8 lengths at Bendigo (23.82) beating Stacey Devere in a Maiden on April 17. Will find this much tougher but he's got good box manners and speed. Has hit winning form and can go on with it.

Hit the frame last time at Bendigo but the start prior was a strong winner after racing just off the speed, scoring by 1.5 lengths in a Maiden at Shepparton. This tougher and prefer for a place this time.

Big odds last time but hit the ground running with a strong early split, giving a sight but fading only late to finish third (25.67) at Shepparton over 450m. Going better than form suggests. Don't underestimate.
