Ballarat Race 8 - Sports Association Of Australia Pace (2Nd Heat)

HUXHAM CHUBB (7) is in good form, winning last month at Terang and placing in two of three starts since. Missed narrowly when second at her latest appearance at Hamilton, beaten a nose. Has to contend with a wide draw but can go close with even luck. BLUE MIKI (4) should be peaking now and looks close to a win following back-to-back placings. Produced a very good effort last time at Kilmore, finishing third and just a head from the winner. Can break through. THEROUX (1) is close to a win after placing in three of four starts so far this campaign and should get every chance from the ace draw. LAZENBY (3) has been hard to fault with back-to-back wins and draws to play a role again.

Solid performance when beaten by 1.75 m finishing second after being driven well back, behind Shiralee at Kilmore over 2180m in a NR 36 to 40 on April 2 at $5.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind Bettorpatchmeup at Hamilton over 2160m in a NR 38 to 42 on April 13 at $5. Drawn to advantage and expected to go well again.

Chasing a hat-trick. Last start ran on from midfield and won by 2 m (Fr4) at Cranbourne (1:58.60) beating Star Ruler in NR 40 to 45 on April 3 at $9 at the bell was 4th-6.2. Hard to leave out on current form. Must respect winning form.

Two back was well beaten into third after a quick start, behind Backbeach Peter at Terang over 2180m in a NR up to 50 on March 27 at $9. Then a handy effort when a close third behind Byrneside Boom at Kilmore over 2180m in a NR up to 49 on April 16 at $3.90. Rates highly. Working up to a win.

Good performance when beaten by 3.5 m finishing fifth behind Optimal at Stawell over 1785m in a 4yo+ NR up to 49 on April 3 at $10. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Pretty Basic at Hamilton over 2160m in a NR 43 to 49 on April 13 at $2.10. Big chance to go one better.
