Bendigo Race 5

National Greyhound Adoption Month

Stake: $3,696

LULU'S RIDE (6) is a well performed dog and winner of eight races who was in the minor money last time out at this track (23.93). Has a strong winning record here at this journey. Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Leading chance again. YELLOW HAWK (1) was unwanted in betting last start but proved too quick with an all-the-way win over 425m at this track in a Grade 5, scoring by 4 lengths (24.03). Winner at his latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. Leading chance again. PACKHAM PRINCE (2) was a powerful 19.27 winner at Healesville last start. Rates a leading chance if runs up to latest. TOMMY TEQUILA (3) is always a threat when he races at this journey.

Could manage only fourth last time but impressed the start prior when he clocked a hot 23.85 over 425m finishing second at this track. Will need to find best form.

Good effort to win last start by 9 lengths over 410m at Horsham in a handy (23.04), beating Noctilucent. Will find this a bit tougher, prepared to overlook.

Finished in the minors last time in a Mix 3/4 at this track when a 5.5 lengths third but did run a slick 23.93 over the 425m trip. Looms as the one to beat this time.

Comments

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when third (28.55) over 500m at this track. Tough draw to overcome but is among the better hopes.
