BALLARAT PREVIEW AND TIPS | EXPERT TIPS | SATURDAY DECEMBER 7TH 2024
RAIL: True TRACK: Good 4
Impossible to give an expect pattern or track rating with 1-10mm forecasted tomorrow and rain overnight, we could be looking at anything between a Good 4 and Heavy 8.
Best Bets
Jackson Oldham
BACK: 3. Dream All Day (WIN) for 2 units (Rated at $2.05)
Dream All Day walked in first-up and Price/Kent Jnr have done a great job in picking off a very winnable target second-up, this race hasn’t come up strongly at all and if she is going to progress through the grades, she should be winning this.
back
Jackson Oldham
LAY: 18. Sure (WIN) for 3 units (Rated at $13.00)
I thought Sure had every possible hope at Caulfield last start behind Ruakaka Raider, I think he might be a horse who is better earlier in his preparation and with possible map issues, I can’t profile any improvement for him at all.

2. Aleppo Pine
1. Hello Romeo
5. Neverenoughlego
4. Highstrung
Betting Strategy
Aleppo Pine has jumped out clearly best to my eye, on top with just not confidence to bet.
3. Dream All Day
2. Just For Show
4. Juggernaut Joan
6. Dunori
Betting Strategy
BACK: 3. Dream All Day (WIN) for 2 units (Rated at $2.05)
Dream All Day walked in first-up and Price/Kent Jnr have done a great job in picking off a very winnable target second-up, this race hasn’t come up strongly at all and if she is going to progress through the grades, she should be winning this.
2. Cleo Cat
9. Extremely Rowdy
5. Kiko
4. Zebella
Betting Strategy
Cleo Cat got out of a tricky spot at Moonee Valley to keep her unbeaten record in tact, Childs sticks and the map is good.
4. Pharari
3. Miss Roumbini
7. Miraval Rose
5. Modown
Betting Strategy
A cracking race, Pharari on top, she got into trouble straightening at Caulfield last start, should’ve won against the smart Kin, no knocks Miss Roumbini or Miraval Rose, who will only run if the track is dry.
5. Prince Eric
1. Bigolino
8. Little Jack
2. Deakin
Betting Strategy
A lottery – no bet.
19. Fickle
15. Tiffany Valentine
9. Fission
20. Don’t Hope Do
Betting Strategy
Fickle will need to overcome a wide draw but does have the early pace to do so, is all upside and I’ve been seat A1 in the fan club but this is a step up in grade and I can’t see any value at the price, I may bet a drift though.
9. Mrs Chrissie
4. Katsu
3. She Dances
1. Joyful Fortune
Betting Strategy
A really interesting race and one where the late Betfair market may tell the story. The three favourites all first-up, including She Dances and Joyful Fortune, who are both off long layoffs but have both been jumping out super at Pakenham.
17. Ruakaka Raider
7. Savoir Faire
12. Dublin Journal
9. Picaroon
Betting Strategy
LAY: 18. Sure (WIN) for 3 units (Rated at $13.00)
I thought Sure had every possible hope at Caulfield last start behind Ruakaka Raider, I think he might be a horse who is better earlier in his preparation and with possible map issues, I can’t profile any improvement for him at all.
16. Poison Chalice
5. Globe
1. Future History
8. Ain’tnodeeldun
Betting Strategy
Posion Chalice on top just in a very tricky edition of the Ballarat Cup.
5. The Open
8. Is It Me
14. Sir Atlas
7. Brazen Lady
Betting Strategy
I was keen on The Open at Moonee Valley and in hindsight he is probably looking for 1400m on a bigger track now, he gets that here and goes on top in a race of little confidence.
