Ballarat Race 4 - Asahi Beverages Pace
DI ANGELO (4) finished second last start, beaten 3.5 metres at this track over 2200m. Good enough to win a race of this calibre. LIVERMERE (8) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 6 metres from the winner in third over 1710m at this track. Should enjoy a nice smother from this draw and will be looking for a split at some stage. Has the ability to take this out. SHEZABLUECHIP (7) didn't do a bad job when fifth over 2190m at Shepparton last time out. RIVER PATROL NZ (2) could only finish ninth over 1720m at Melton most recently. Open to improvement and is in the mix.

Didn't do much at the last run, 6th (Fr1) over 1690m at Shepparton, at the bell was 3rd-5.69 beaten 11 m by Mammals Reason (2:04.70) on July 28 at $51. Before that surrendered the lead and finished 7th (Fr3) over 1690m after showing early pace at Shepparton was 4th-5.32 at the bell, beaten 16 m by Iamawingate (2:04.00) on July 21 at $71. This looks a far sterner test.

Recent efforts haven't been up to her best.

Solid performance when beaten by 3 m finishing fourth behind Bona Khan at Melton over 1200m on July 15 at $9.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third after a quick start, behind Skyz Above at this track over 1710m on July 23 at $5.50. Can win with even luck.
