Ballarat Race 13 - Ballarat Race 13
MCKERCHER (4) box seated before sticking on well to finish 2 lengths away in third (22.38) at this track in a Grade 5 over 390m. Capable of going well again. BLACK STATESMAN (2) placed two runs ago then again in the money last time when second (22.32) at this track in a Grade 5. This looks easier and expected to improve sharply. PAW ZENITH (8) well back settling but did wind up strongly to finish 5th and beaten only 4 lengths (24.88) at Sale. Leading chance. PAW VINCE (1) can return to form after missing the top-three at this circuit last time out.

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 1.2 lengths second (22.32) over 390m at this track. Boxed on well at the latest run to hit the frame. Leading player.

Flew the lids with a quick early split but had to settle for the minor money when third (22.38) over 390m at this track. Thereabouts at the last couple. Suited here and likely to run well.

Did a good job two starts back at Warrnambool to win by 1.75 lengths in 22.38, beating Angry Chief. Last start finished 6th over 400m at Geelong beaten 6 lengths (23.11) behind Onyx Lass in a Grade 5 on August 21. Can't make much of a case this time.
