News Corp form analyst Brad Waters runs the rule over Tuesday’s Ballarat Synthetic meeting.

BEST BET

MADE THE EFFORT (Race 6 No. 2 – $5.50)

Made The Effort has shown good ability on the synthetic tracks at her last two outings and rates a top chance of breaking through at Ballarat.

NEXT BEST

STORMIE (Race 1 No. 2 – $2.50)

Stormie relished getting onto the Ballarat Synthetic track when winning his maiden easily last time out. He’s up in class but can win again.

SNAPPY MAGNUS (Race 4 No. 1 – $3)

Snappy Magnus won well on this track two runs back before another good effort last start. This is no harder and he’ll go close again.

VALUE BET

BIG DARRYL (Race 8 No. 3 – $7)

Big Darryl is never far away on synthetic tracks and he showed a win was nearing with his last effort at Ballarat. Dropping back to 1400m could suit.

THE JOCKEY

JOHN ALLEN

A book of five rides should produce some success for John Allen at Ballarat. HALCYON EAST (Race 1 No. 1 – $2.30), RUMINATE (Race 3 No. 3 – $8), BRENNUS (Race 5 No. 1 – $12), TSARINA CHAOS (Race 6 No. 5 – $14), HALLOWED GROUND (Race 7 No. 3 – $12).
