Ballarat Race 8 - Sportsbet Supporters Of Having A Crack

PAW ESTRELLA (2) has a strong record this trip with 13 wins and 11 placings from 35 starts. Missed the frame latest (25.59) when fourth over 450m at Warrnambool in a Grade 4/5. Rates a leading player. ASTON HERCULES (3) doesn't win out of turn but looks close to breaking through. Finished third (25.41) at this track last time making it two minors on end. Form at the trip sound including three wins. Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Overdue and gets his chance. IMITATED (1) scored a 2.25 lengths win this course and distance last time in a personal Best Time (25.41) and also clocked one of the quickest wins on the card. Has the ability and looks a key chance. COME ON LARRY (6) picked up a cheque over this course and distance most recently - in the mix again.

Flew the lids with a quick early split but had to settle for the minor money when third (25.41) over 450m at this track. More than capable and has to be included.
