Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted August 29, 2022 Journalists Share Posted August 29, 2022 What Ballarat Races Where Ballarat Turf Club – 240 Kennedys Rd, Miners Rest VIC 3352 When Tuesday, August 30, 2022 First Race 1pm AEST Visit Ladbrokes For the final time this calendar year, the synthetic track at Ballarat Turf Club will be the venue for racing in Victoria this Tuesday. Eight races are scheduled for the all-weather surface, and despite it being an overcast day, conditions should be perfect for racing. The meeting is set to get underway at 1pm AEST. Best Bet at Ballarat – Miss Daniel Formerly with Richard & Chantelle Jolly, the now Symon Wilde-trained Miss Daniel will be looking to bring up a second-straight win for her new stable. The four-year-old returns to the Ballarat synthetic having finished second at the 1100m here two starts ago before a smart win at Donald on August 16. The Starcraft mare has shown she can be tactically versatile, whether it be settling up on speed or, like she did at Donald, taking a sit off the lead and being left for a final look at the leaders. From barrier 10, we expect Harry Coffey to use Miss Daniel’s early speed to her advantage, and with speed drawn immediately outside of her, she should gain a nice cart across the field. This girl is racing in more than good enough form since her move across the border, and at $2.80 with online bookmakers, she looks a clear best bet of the day. Best Bet Race 6 – #5 Miss Daniel (10) 4yo Mare | T: Symon Wilde | J: Harry Coffey (60kg) $2.80 with Palmerbet Next Best at Ballarat – Ultimate Edition In the opening leg of the quaddie, we are anticipating the John & Chris Ledger-trained Ultimate Edition can end a run of outs that stretches back nearly 18 months. The five-year-old gelding has finished second at both of his starts this campaign but did look the winner at one point or another in both of those races. It is hard to knock his racing pattern, as he jumps from the barriers cleanly and looks to run his rivals off his feet. Despite there being a bit of competition for early supremacy in this event, we expect Patrick Moloney to be aggressive early and have this bloke lead throughout. He looks to be a different sprinter this campaign since coming onto the synthetic, and a repeat effort of his last two starts should see him prove too hard to run down. Next Best Race 5 – #1 Ultimate Edition (3) 5yo Gelding | T: John & Chris Ledger | J: Patrick Moloney (60kg) $3.80 with Neds Best Value at Ballarat – Deep’n Meaningful Despite not being at her best this campaign, the Tony & Calvin McEvoy-trained Deep’n Meaningful looks a great play as she hops onto the synthetic for the second time. The Deep Field mare finished second in three of her four runs in her initial campaign, but in two runs back from a spell, she is yet to finish any better than fifth. We are willing to be forgiving on those two runs, with issues within the first 100m proving detrimental. She showed throughout her last campaign that she would prefer to be settled closer to the speed, so if she is settled within the first four after the first furlong, she will be in this right up to her neck. From barrier seven, look for Damien Thornton to have her lobbed in the one-one or outside the leader. If Deep’n Meaningful is afforded that luxury, she will be more than capable of finishing the job in a 1500m maiden like this. Best Value Race 3 – #8 Deep’n Meaningful (7) 4yo Mare | T: Tony & Calvin McEvoy | J: Damien Thornton (57.5kg) $7.50 with Unibet Friday quaddie tips for Ballarat Ballarat quadrella selections Tuesday, August 30, 2022 1-3 5-6 1-6-7-9-11 3-4-6-7-8 Investment: $100 for 100% More horse racing tips View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
