Races MR Ballarat

Had few excuses after finding a nice trail midfield 3.8L at Belmont Cl3 over 1200m. Got back worse than midfield and was pushed along to make ground 7.3L at Ascot Cl1 over 1400m.

Ran on well from midfield for second, showing good form 4.8L at Ballarat Cg&E Bm64 over 1500m Synthetic. Made up many lengths to grab third after getting back to midfield 0.9L at Ballarat Bm58 over 1500m Synthetic.

Chimed in late after getting back for a superb victory 0.3L at Camperdown Mdn-Sw over 1600m. Failed to improve on the front runners after settling midfield 5.5L at Mildura Bm64 over 1400m. Second-up.

Pounced on the lead on the line but just lost when second 0.2L at The Valley 3Y Bm64 over 1600m. Sat behind the leaders and appeared to have every chance 3.8L at Thomas Farms RC Murray Bridge 0-66 over 1600m.

Could only hold onto fifth despite looking to have every chance behind the speed 6.3L at Ballarat Bm70 over 1400m Synthetic. Under pressure in the lead and had to pull out all stops to hold fifth 2.3L at Mildura 0 - 58 over 1400m.

Ran on nicely from midfield but was surpassed 1.8L at Ballarat Bm58 over 1500m Synthetic. Too far back to be competitive, struggling into sixth 5.9L at Echuca Bm52 over 1412m Soft 7.

Settled just off the pace and hit the line nicely for second 1.5L at Ballarat Bm58 over 1200m Synthetic. Beaten for speed and never came into contention 10.7L at Ballarat Bm58 over 1400m Synthetic.

Traveled forward in the running and laboured when it mattered fourth 3.5L at Ballarat F&M Bm64 over 1400m Synthetic. Weakened out of the race after doing a lot of chasing 7.5L at Ladbrokes Geelong F&M Bm58 over 1430m Heavy 8. Has a history of running well at this track/distance.

Found a nice position behind the speed but had nothing to show when sixth 5.1L at Kyneton 0 - 58 over 1454m. Beaten convincingly by rivals when never looked a serious threat 7.7L at Warracknabeal 0 - 58 over 1200m Soft 7. Can win second-up, consider.

One-paced to the line and always well back 9.9L at Apiam Bendigo 0 - 58 over 1100m Soft 6. Never a threat after showing no early speed from the barriers 6.1L at Pakenham Bm58 over 1200m Synthetic.

Never a threat after showing no early speed from the barriers 8.1L at Pakenham Bm64 over 1600m Synthetic. Midfield with the leaders in sight however had little to show in the finish 10.4L at Pakenham Bm70 over 1600m Synthetic. Down in grade here so don't dismiss.

Showed best work late for fifth but the race was well and truly decided 5.9L at Warracknabeal Bm52 over 1600m Soft 5. Settled a long way back and finished the race well into fourth 4.3L at Echuca Bm52 over 1412m Soft 7.

Midfield in-running and made up some ground late 2L at Ballarat 0 - 58 over 1500m Synthetic. Raced handy enough to be in the fight however didn't come on, sixth 3.8L at Kerang Bm52 over 1800m.
