Ballarat Race 5 - Alfredton Laundry Pace
AMPHIJET (2) added to his recent string of strong performances last time out when runner-up over 1609m at Geelong, beaten 4.5 metres. Has the benefit of a good draw. Big chance in this comparable race. LITTLEBLABBAMOUTH (8) finished fourth last start over 2150m at Bendigo but gave a good account, beaten only 1.1 metres. Won't spend a penny from this draw but luck may play a role on the bell lap. Beautifully placed and is sure to be there at the finish. BETTES BLUE VIOLET (9) was responsible for a better effort last time out when runner-up over 1609m at Cranbourne. Should run a big race. EYE SEE AMOUR (1) has drawn to advantage and should give backers a great sight.

Solid run when a close second after showing early speed, behind Sporty Philtra at Cranbourne over 2080m in a NR up to 49 on May 11 at $4.80. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.5 m finishing second behind Wingate Guy at this track over 2200m in a NR 45 to 50 on May 22 at $12. Will be about the money again.

Didn't do much last start, was driven from back in the field when 6th (Fr6) over 2200m at this track, at the bell was 9th-16.4 beaten 14 m by Wingate Guy (2:41.50) in NR 45 to 50 on May 22 at $41. Before that was well back in the run when 11th (Fr6) over 1720m after being wide early at Melton was 12th-18.2 at the bell, beaten 16 m by Grayson Red (2:03.80) in NR up to 55 on May 10 at $101. Others appear better placed.

Last start 10th (Fr6) over 2100m after showing early speed and racing wide at Geelong, beaten 13 m by Muselet (2:33.30) in 4yo+ NR up to 55 on May 30 at $26. Two runs back 2nd (Sr3) over 1720m at Melton, beaten 1.5 m by Calypso Mistress (2:04.10) in NR 43 to 49 on May 23 at $6. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

Last start was well back in the run when 8th (Fr3) over 2190m at Shepparton was 10th-16.61 at the bell, beaten 18 m by Soho Playgirl (2:44.80) in NR 45 to 51 on May 27 at $17.

Two back was well beaten into seventh after being driven well back, behind Jay Bee at Geelong over 1609m in a NR 43 to 49 on May 16 at $3.70. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5.5 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Ima Charma at Cranbourne over 1609m in a NR 40 to 49 on May 25 at $19. Should be in the finish again.
