Ballarat Race 5 - Southern Sheetmetal

TINKER RAYS (4) slotted in just off the lead from the wide draw last start and boxed on to finish second (23.12) at Geelong in a Grade 5 over 400m. Leading chance again. RAVEN XANDER (1) used the rails draw to advantage to get home last time at Bendigo over 425m (24.45), scoring by a neck. Must include in calculations. YELLOW OCHRE (3) doesn't win out of turn but recent form sound. Finished third (22.67) at this track last time making it two minors on end. Solid record here winning four races. Winning chance. KATE'S RIFT (2) can sneak into the finish.

Did a good job two starts back at Geelong to win by a head in 23.12, beating Paw Cassian. Last start finished 4th over 400m at Geelong beaten 6 lengths (23.33) behind Sailor Song in a Grade 5 on May 26. Tested under these conditions.
