Ballarat Race 6 - Happy Horse Produce

BLACK STAR RIOT (5) is in top form lately including a dominant win at this track in 30.72 two back then backing it up with a 25.72 victory at Geelong over 460m latest. Running fast times and looks the one to beat again. TASTE (1) was in the money last time at The Meadows (30.51) in a Grade 5, finishing a 3.5 lengths second. Unbeaten in two runs from this draw. Looks suited here and can measure up. DISPARAGE (8) had won two in a row before finishing seventh (25.57) last time at this track. Got the money at his only try from this box. Key runner on best form. PAW HAZELTON (2) generally performs well over this distance.
