Ballarat Race 5 - Hewitt & Whitty Trot

BETTOR MAN (4) came from a wider barrier for a first-up win the last time he raced here and looks close to another success following back-to-back placings from second line draws. The return to the front row gives him the chance to return to the winners' list. SCAR (7) was first up for a month when a solid fourth from a 20m handicap at Cranbourne on Sunday. Gets a wide draw for his return to a mobile start but came from a similar barrier for second three back at Geelong. WHATS THE TEA (5) came from this barrier to find winning form over a similar distance at Kilmore last week. Could go on with it. THATS YOUR OPINION (3) has had seven weeks off since he resumed with a placing from a similar draw at Bendigo. Keep safe.

Showed ability the run before when she tracked on the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 1.1 m when quickly away, (Fr6) at this track (2:47.90) beating Jungle Spider in on April 30 at $3 at the bell was 2nd-0.92. Draws well so may bounce back.
