Deane Lester’s Ballarat Best Bets Posted on November 23, 2018 | Posted by Deane Lester Deane Lester’s Best Bets RACE 2 NO.6 I AM SOMEONE I AM SOMEONE is a very promising sprinter from the Paul Preusker stable that should be fitter for one run back from a spell and looks the best bet of the day when he runs in the Benchmark 70 Handicap (1100m). The four year old ran on well to finish third over 955 metres at Moonee Valley on November 16. That was a good pipe-opener for this race and he will appreciate stepping up in distance from a good draw. He gets the benefit of Fred Kersley’s 2kg claim and I AM SOMEONE looks poised to record his third career win. RACE 5 NO.4 WINNING PARTNER The Super VOBIS Gold Eureka Stockade (1400m) looks a very competitive race with a variety of formlines, however the fresh horse on the scene might be WINNING PARTNER who appeals as a solid winning chance in this race. The Tony McEvoy trained gelding showed talent last preparation behind stakes class horses and resumed with a confidence boosting win in a Maiden over 1100 metres at Bendigo on October 31. He stretched out well over the final stages suggesting the extra distance of this race is in his favour. Whilst some of his rivals may have stronger credentials, WINNING PARTNER looks to be hitting this race at the right stage of his preparation and a prominent run can be expected. RACE 9 NO.3 USAIN BOWLER The best value runner of the day might be USAIN BOWLER when he contests and 3+4YO Magic Millions Classic (1100m). The four year old was a Moonee Valley winner over 1200 metres last preparation before two unplaced efforts when extended to 1400 metres which proved to be beyond him. The John Sadler trained gelding impressed in a recent Caulfield jumpout recording the fastest time of the day suggesting that he is primed for a big first-up run. He handles all conditions, elite rider Mark Zahra takes the ride and USAIN BOWLER looks a good winning chance at each way odds. Market Market
