RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: QUIRKY CHARACTER (9) took a big jump in class to race against some smart performers at Melton last week and hit the line well to finish fourth. Back in a suitable grade here, he looks hard to beat. MIELICKI (2) was a strong winner at Maryborough on Sunday and will be looking to go back-to-back. From barrier two, he should be able to find a forward position. BUSLIN BRODY (6) is a great front runner but may not find the top here. He has been racing well and, with the right run, is a winning chance. SEBASTIANS WAITING (8) is a smart trotter in career-best form. He is a very big horse and is probably not suited to being stuck on the fence at Ballarat. If he can find a position off the fence, he will be right in the finish. BACK: QUIRKY CHARACTER (9) – 3 units (win)
