Ballarat Race 1 - Sportsbet Ht1
CRACKERJACK ASH (3) slotted in just off the lead from the wide draw last start and boxed on to finish third (23.82) at Horsham in a Maiden over 410m. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Capable of going well again. OZA DOECHII (4) comes off an average run last start when eighth at this track over 390m behind Zipping Spyro (22.87) in a Maiden. Was in the money prior to that. Expected to give a good account. PAW CHIKORITA (1) is on debut with a good inside draw a bonus. Expected to play a major role. PERFECT ALIBI (2) makes debut for the Angela Langton kennel. Gets every chance from the inside draw. Market should provide a lead to her ability.

Well bred first race starter by Quinlan Bale from Osanna Bale. She looks suitably boxed. Profiles strongly this line-up and is expected to run well.

Debutante by Plaintiff from Osprey Rose. She looks suitably boxed. Top-three hope with the right run.

Has been in the minors the last two, the latest showing strong pace early but gathered in and finished a 3.5 lengths third over 410m Horsham in 23.82. Strong form emerging from the that last run. Leading chance.

Has ability but remains a maiden after five starts, the most recent effort a eighth (22.87) over 390m at this track. Top chance to get off the mark.

Debutant by Fernando Bale from Nikki Bonkers. Trained by Adrian Kenyon. Market the only real guide to his chances.

Turned in a fair debut over 390m at this track where she was well back early but wound up late to finish fifth (22.74) and beaten 11 lengths. Should be further improved. Others preferred on this occasion.

Ran a fair race on debut when settled off the speed early and held position to finish fourth (23.75) at Horsham over 410m. Should be further improved. Looks a solid contender.
