Ballarat Race 4 - Southern Sheetmetal

CHEEKY ALESSIA (1) flew the lids from out wide with an impressive turn of foot before finishing second (22.99) and beaten 1.5 lengths over 400m at Geelong. Rates highly and will give a great sight. PAW CHRISTIE (8) has missed the frame at her last couple but did finish in the minors in quick time three back (25.96) at Geelong in a Rank Limit - Grade 5. Can feature with the right run. MYRNIONG STORM (5) doesn't win out of turn. Finished third (22.42) at Warrnambool latest and might be close to finding winning form again. Form here at the trip sound including five wins. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Bold showing expected. SHEIKH OF TWEAK (2) was a surprise last-start placegetter worth considering.

Charged out of the boxes with a slick early split and went straight to the front, giving a huge sight but headed late when a 1.5 lengths second (22.99) over 400m at Geelong. Rates highly and looks tough to beat.
