Bendigo Race 2

Sportsbet (1-4 Wins) Ht1

Stake: -

SONIA'S BEAUTY (6) has been a little hard to follow, finishing out of the placings latest but was in winning form two back scoring in a Mix 6/7 FIN at this track. Key player on best and worth another chance. PAR EXCELLENCE (2) scored well last start as odds-on favourite by 5.5 lengths at Warrnambool in a handy 25.40 beating Let's Go Out. Has a low draw and goes well at this distance. Was a winner at his only start from this draw. Bold showing expected again. EXAGGERATOR (3) had been in great form but missed the frame latest when eighth (30.76) in a Special conditions H at The Meadows. Generally fast to begin but always back from the wide draw last time. Is yet to taste defeat at this course and distance. Strong form has emerged from his last run. Has ability and can atone. VASTUS (1) is a chance after winning last time.

Good effort to win last start by a nose over 400m at Geelong in a handy (22.97), beating More Boost Rico. Will find this a bit tougher, prepared to just watch this time.
