Snapper Smith is drawn to receive all the favours in the fourth at Ballarat tonight and can return to winning form.
The daughter of Aston Dee Bee charged home to score an impressive at Geelong three starts back and has been undone by poor luck at her last two, running into traffic almost immediately from wide draws.
She can go forward tonight and with even luck, will take plenty of beating in something like this.
Indy Matilda is another chaser whose claims on winning have been enhanced by her drawing of Box 1 at Ballarat tonight.
The daughter of Droopys Jet charged home to score a very impressive win at Cranbourne two starts back, and while she missed placing at The Meadows last time, once again kept all of her best work for late, and was just a length behind the winner as they greeted the judge.
She can settle a little closer to the speed from Box 1 tonight and will be hard to hold out.
Trending Air tends to find her best at Ballarat, and she looks well placed to score at Ballarat tonight.
The daughter of Fernando Bale has been a model of consistency throughout her campaign, and with slightly better luck, she would have finished a lot closer at her last couple.
She can use her box speed to overcome the central draw tonight and she’ll be in this for a long way.
This shapes as Tiggerlong Jet’s race to lose.
Tiggerlong Jet has returned plenty of bold efforts this campaign and has found form around some above average chasers.
I can’t find a reason why he won’t be in the finish again, so I am going to select him as the winner in a Same Race Multi and build out my bet further with Close Encounter running into the first three and My Mascara running into the first four.
Our Same Race Multi selections are:
- 6 Tiggerlong Jet (Win)
- 8 Close Encounter (Top 3)
- 4 My Mascara (Top 4)
