Ballarat Race 9 - Eureka Concrete
CYCLONE ALFIE (6) is a fast beginner who has shown good improvement at his last two starts, the latest scoring at this track over 450m. Shapes as a top winning chance on latest effort. PAW DANGER (3) was strong over this course and distance last time despite filling the minors, finishing 2.25 lengths behind Ring in 25.52 and recording a new PB here. Bold showing expected again. KOPACKI RIT (5) is a progressive dog who scored his 2nd career win last time at this track, scoring by 6 lengths (25.46). Deserves serious consideration again. ASTON SWING (7) found the frame for the second consecutive time when narrowly beaten into second last time out (25.52) over 450m at this track.

Has been in the minor money the last two runs, the latest finishing third (25.93) at this track. Drops down the inside box this time. One of the better hopes.

Sent out long odds last time but rocketed out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 2.25 lengths third (25.52) over 450m at this track. Capable of improvement on latest effort. Well placed and should feature.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when third (22.36) at big odds over 390m at this track. Has to overcome a wide draw and looks tested this line up.
