Ballarat Race 5 - Onthestraight.com.au (275+Rank)

SPRING QUIZ (2) missed the frame and was safely held latest finishing 7th at Horsham following on from a third place finish (22.94) at Warragul the start prior. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings four times from seven starts. Has ability and looks hard to stop. WHERE'S MICK (1) was below best at his last start when 6th at Mt Gambier following a second place finish (22.33) at Warrnambool two back. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. ZIVA BALE (8) finds it hard to break through. Hit the board with a minor placing last time when third (22.90) at Geelong. Form here sound including four wins. Winning chance. DIMORA BIG BOY (7) is worth including.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished last in a Grade 6 on October 18 over 305m at Mt Gambier behind Tabasco Fiasco beaten 39 lengths (20.16). Placed two back at Warrnambool. Had been in strong form, hitting the frame two times on end, before the latest effort. Can atone.
