Clear skies are forecast for raceday, meaning there should be zero excuses in terms of kickback for any of the fancied runners. The action from Ballarat will commence at 1:30pm AEST. Best Bet at Ballarat: Signal Signal hardly runs a poor race first-up from a spell (4: 1-2-1), while he already has two wins at this track. The six-year-old gelding is without a doubt the best horse in the field, and despite needing to lug 61.5kg, he should be winning. Barrier one is offset by the fact he is a natural leader, and with a relatively uncontested lead expected, Signal will prove too hard to gun down. Best Bet Race 5 – #1 Signal (1) 6yo Gelding | T: Matt Laurie | J: Ethan Brown (61.5kg) +200 with Bet365 Next Best at Ballarat: Miss Xtravaganza Miss Xtravaganza was beaten by the barest of margins at the Ballarat synthetic 1500m on July 16. The Xtravagant mare simply couldn’t get past the winner, but the near three-length gap back to the third horse suggests a win is coming. She stays at the track and trip, and with Jarrod Fry likely to land outside the lead from barrier five, Miss Xtravaganza will just need a bit of luck to go one better this time. Next Best Race 3 – #7 Miss Xtravaganza (5) 4yo Mare | T: Mitchell Freedman | J: Jarrod Fry (57.5kg) +200 with Picklebet Next Best Again at Ballarat: Attaboom Although Attaboom is a 16-start maiden, he has been racing in fine form on the Ballarat synthetic. The four-year-old gelding has six seconds and a third from 12 starts on the all-weather surface. Neil Farley will likely have him settled outside the speed over the 1200m, and as long as he doesn’t over-race, Attaboom should finally be breaking his maiden status. Next Best Again Race 2 – #1 Attaboom (6) 4yo Gelding | T: Anthony Cosgriff | J: Neil Farley (59.5kg) +400 with Neds Ballarat Tuesday quaddie tips Ballarat quadrella selections Tuesday, August 6, 2024 3-7 1-3-5-6-8 1-5 4-5-6-7 | Copy this bet straight to your betslip Horse racing tips View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
