Race comment
OVERVIEW: The so called ‘consolation’ for tonight’s Ballarat Cup (it isn’t the consolation but it is at the same time) looms as-yet another challenging and beautiful contest. There are several potential speed maps in play here, so many in fact that it’s a wise move untethering oneself from such scenarios and simply focussing upon class combined with form. If we’re playing that game, then JILLIBY SYLVESTER (5) clearly rates on top. Not only has this bloke improved like few other horses in Australia lately, but he’s also a great chance of finding he front. If that ID Consolation and last-start Hamilton Cup king leads, then this race is on his racquet. His major threats are thus. CRIME WRITER (2) had no fortune in the Hamilton Cup and wasn’t asked for anything late but his silver medal behind our top tip in the ID conso was huge, so he’s well in the mix, as is one-time Ballarat Cup champion A GS WHITE SOCKS (7) if he somehow crosses from seven to lead. The rest are probably racing for place money at best, though one horse that rewarded our patience last week was SHORTYS MATE (1) and from the polemarking draw he’s with a drum wager again, and maybe even something silly to win. EARLY SPEED: 5,7 + 3?,4? RATINGS: 5/ 2/ 7/ 1/ 9/ 4/ 3/ 6

Race comment
OVERVIEW: The so called ‘consolation’ for tonight’s Ballarat Cup (it isn’t the consolation but it is at the same time) looms as-yet another challenging and beautiful contest. There are several potential speed maps in play here, so many in fact that it’s a wise move untethering oneself from such scenarios and simply focussing upon class combined with form. If we’re playing that game, then JILLIBY SYLVESTER (5) clearly rates on top. Not only has this bloke improved like few other horses in Australia lately, but he’s also a great chance of finding he front. If that ID Consolation and last-start Hamilton Cup king leads, then this race is on his racquet. His major threats are thus. CRIME WRITER (2) had no fortune in the Hamilton Cup and wasn’t asked for anything late but his silver medal behind our top tip in the ID conso was huge, so he’s well in the mix, as is one-time Ballarat Cup champion A GS WHITE SOCKS (7) if he somehow crosses from seven to lead. The rest are probably racing for place money at best, though one horse that rewarded our patience last week was SHORTYS MATE (1) and from the polemarking draw he’s with a drum wager again, and maybe even something silly to win.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: The so called ‘consolation’ for tonight’s Ballarat Cup (it isn’t the consolation but it is at the same time) looms as-yet another challenging and beautiful contest. There are several potential speed maps in play here, so many in fact that it’s a wise move untethering oneself from such scenarios and simply focussing upon class combined with form. If we’re playing that game, then JILLIBY SYLVESTER (5) clearly rates on top. Not only has this bloke improved like few other horses in Australia lately, but he’s also a great chance of finding he front. If that ID Consolation and last-start Hamilton Cup king leads, then this race is on his racquet. His major threats are thus. CRIME WRITER (2) had no fortune in the Hamilton Cup and wasn’t asked for anything late but his silver medal behind our top tip in the ID conso was huge, so he’s well in the mix, as is one-time Ballarat Cup champion A GS WHITE SOCKS (7) if he somehow crosses from seven to lead. The rest are probably racing for place money at best, though one horse that rewarded our patience last week was SHORTYS MATE (1) and from the polemarking draw he’s with a drum wager again, and maybe even something silly to win.
