Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted June 7, 2022 Journalists Share Posted June 7, 2022 What Ballarat Races Where Ballarat Turf Club – 240 Kennedys Rd, Miners Rest VIC 3352 When Thursday, June 9, 2022 First Race 12:25pm AEST Visit Ladbrokes On a cold wintery afternoon where the mercury is only tipped to reach a high of eight degrees, Ballarat will host a nine-race card. The track will be a Heavy 10 and the first race will start at 12:25pm, with the last going at 4:30pm. The quaddie races kick off at 3pm, with race six the first leg. BALLARAT BEST BET: HOUSE SPOUSE After three runs back from a spell, this Patrick Payne-trained gelding is ready to win now. We will likely get small odds, but anything close to even money might be worth a bet here. After four jumpouts and three races this time in, House Spouse is pretty fit now, and after a good second at Sale on May 25, he is ready to win again. Payne has chosen to keep House Spouse at the mile, and if he settles in a similar spot to last time (around third), we think he can hit the line stronger in this race. His last two runs on Heavy tracks have been unplaced, which is a slight concern, but he did win his maiden on Heavy ground in 2021. Sunday Buzz from the Symon Wilde stable is sure to have had plenty of training on Heavy tracks around Warrnambool, so he is the main danger. Best Bet Race 4 – #4 House Spouse (3) 3yo Gelding | T: Patrick Payne | J: Michael Dee (58.5kg) $1.75 with Bet365 NEXT BEST AT BALLARAT: SNOW BUSINESS This daughter of Frosted x Merge is trained by Ciaron Maher and David Eustace, who are among the leading trainers in Australia, and is largely on that fact we are going with this filly. She’s only had two career starts for a second and fourth on Good surfaces, so how she handles the wet is an unknown. When second at Geelong over 1200m she was only beaten less than a length, before being backed to win at the same track just weeks later when fourth. She’s had a good five months off, but you could see in both of her races she does have ability. Her main rival will be Devil’s Fiddle, who started $6 on debut with online bookmakers when running third. Next Best Race 1 – #6 Snow Business (5) 3yo Filly | T: Ciaron Maher & David Eustace | J: John Allen (57kg) $2.05 with Neds BALLARAT VALUE BET: NASDANA This is a tricky race with a few first-starters about, but we have gone with Nasdana as she has run a couple of decent races in the past albeit on Good tracks. The Matthew Ellerton-trained filly ran quite well when second at Donald before being turned out for a spell recently. She is first up today and her best chance is if there is early pace on, as she is one that likes to settle back in her races. We will be wanting each-way odds from the betting sites for this one. Best Value Race 3 – #11 Nasdana (5) 3yo Filly | T: Matthew Ellerton | J: Daniel Moor (57.5kg) $5.50 with Bet365 Thursday quaddie picks for Ballarat Ballarat quadrella selections Thursday, June 9, 2022 1-4-8-9 1-5-6-10-15 1-3-4-7 4-5-8 Investment: $240 for 100% More horse racing tips View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
