Bendigo (G) Race 3

Bendigo Advertiser (300+ Rank)

Stake: $1,652

LIKE A BLAZE (6) turned in a moderate effort last time when sixth at Shepparton over 390m behind Hartland Duke (22.85) in a Grade 5. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. MARINO (3) comes off an average performance last start when seventh at Shepparton over 390m behind Wandana Lad (23.15) in a Grade 5. Has ability and is one of the better chances. EPISODE FIVE (7) scored two back then was always well back and could manage only a 12 length 7th at Sale (25.88). Some good form is emerging from his last run. In the mix. DETRIOT (1) can sneak into the finish with the right run.

Suited by inside box. Latest effort finished last over 450m at Shepparton beaten 11 lengths (26.67) behind Forbidden Jutsu in a Grade 5 on May 8. The last run is a strong form reference. Follow up.

Was out of placings last time (25.11) at this track in a Grade 5, finishing fifth and beaten 8 lengths. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed five times. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts.

Got back last start and could only manage seventh but before that won easily by 4.5 lengths at Warrnambool (22.28) beating Aston Farrell in a Grade 6 on May 5. Is a danger.
