Ballarat Race 2 - Southern Sheetmetal

MAXIMUM SILVER (8) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fourth (22.95) in a Bottom Up - Grade 7 at Warrnambool. Tough to beat if on-song. DOONGALLA SHAZIA (6) chased the lead early from the inside and boxed on well to finish second, beaten 4.5 lengths (22.61) at Warrnambool in a Bottom Up - Grade 7 over 390m. Can measure up. GOTHAM SORCERESS (1) doesn't have the best strike-rate. Finished in the minors latest when second (23.51) at Warragul and may be close to breaking through. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings six times from 10 attempts. Must be included in calculations. ALWAYS BELIEVE (2) is a chance after winning last time.
