Bendigo Race 6

Gray's Bendigo (325+Rank) (2-3 Wins)

Prize Money: $1,740

SHAKA BIG CHIEF (1) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fourth (26.21) in a Grade 5 at Ballarat. Has claims if he runs up to expectations. JAZZY BELLE (4) is worth forgiving last start after finishing seventh (29.28) from Box 3 at this track over 500m. Better than last start and can bounce back. OFFENSIVE LADY (8) can play a role in the finish without surprising.

Suited by inside box. Latest effort finished 4th in a Grade 5 on December 9 over 450m at Ballarat behind Sam's Boy beaten 6 lengths (26.21). Thereabouts at the last couple. Suited here and likely to run well.
