The Punter’s Prince finds the best bets ahead of racing from Ballarat.
There looks to be a strong bet in race two and race seven also presents the punters with a good play.
ballarat race 1
#5 keppel bay
Hard to see them beating Keppel Bay.
He will be fitter for the first-up run and should get the run of the race from the inside gate.
Suggested Bet: Keppel Bay win at $1.95
Confidence Rating: 8.5/10
ballarat race 2
#7 cannoli
Cannoli copped a heavy track on debut and we likely did not see the best of her.
Should appreciate getting onto firmer footing has the race experience over Divine Flash who is likely her main danger.
Suggested Bet: Cannoli win at $5
Confidence Rating: 7.5/10
ballarat race 3
#9 street painter
Undefeated at the jump outs and the big kicker for the confidence rating here is his ability to handle the synthetic track.
As a two-year-old gelding, he pinged away to win his Flemington jump out on the all-weather surface back on June 3.
Should have a good enough fitness base to win this.
Suggested Bet: Street Thinker win at $2.50
Confidence Rating: 7.5/10
ballarat race 4
#2 desarmer
Was looking for further than 1200 metres on debut at Geelong and then had an 11-week break before returning to the same track and distance a fortnight ago.
Gets up to 1400 metres and can run a cheeky race at good odds.
Suggested Bet: Desarmer each-way at $12 the win and $3.10 the place.
Confidence Rating: 4.5/10
ballarat race 7
#8 she's kerosene
Looks to be a fair bit of the pace in the race with Mietta, French Fields and Couer De Paris all pressing towards the lead.
Should play into the hands of She’s Kerosene who can camp in behind the leaders and finish off powerfully.
Suggested Bet: She’s Kerosene win at $4.60
Confidence Rating: 7/10
