Ballarat Race 4 - Pink Diamond Challenger Sprinter Ht2
FLYING DOORMAT (5) ran below his best last time finishing fourth (22.83) over 390m at this track in a Grade 5. Has a good record at this journey. Solid formlines coming through his last run. Has ability and is a key runner. DASH EXPRESS (2) has been mixing form lately, hitting the frame two back before finishing fifth (27.48) at Horsham in a Grade 5 H. Key player on best and worth another try. NORTON BALE (1) has a strong record this journey here with two wins and a minor from four starts. Missed the frame latest (28.59) when fourth over 500m at Bendigo in a Grade 5. Makes strong appeal on best. KENSINGTON FLYER (8) can sneak into the finish.

Was out of placings last time (28.59) at Bendigo in a Grade 5, finishing fourth and beaten 4.5 lengths. Yet to miss the placings in six runs from this box, including two wins. Makes strong appeal.

Good effort to win last start by 0.8 lengths over 425m at Bendigo in a handy (24.29), beating Dance Lady Dance. The form out of the last run measures up. Among the chances.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fifth last time out over 350m at Healesville. Has failed to show enough to come into contention.
