Ballarat Race 10 - Onthestraight.com.au

SLICK BADGER (8) failed to feature last start at Horsham, but prior to that won by 2.25 lengths at Geelong (25.97) beating Sir Dodge in a Grade 4/5 on August 14. Has a strong record out of this box with three wins and two minor placings from seven starts. Rates on top in this line up. PAW GUSTO (7) comes here after a sizzling Grade 4/5 win at Warrnambool over 450m in 25.20. Smart winner latest and looks a key chance on that form. ELECTROJET (4) is a talented dog who is a winner of 12 races and filled a minor placing latest when third at this track (22.43). Overdue and expected to feature again. NOVA OWEN (2) is worth consideration.

Has won three in a row. Good effort to score just six days ago over 450m at Warrnambool by 3.5 lengths in a Grade 4/5. Flying lately and can score again.

Was out of placings last time (27.78) at Horsham in a Grade 4/5, finishing seventh and beaten 5.5 lengths. Box stats strong with three wins and two placings from seven starts. With a clean break looks hard to beat.
