Bendigo Race 11

Gray's Bendigo Damsels Dash

Prize Money: $2,925

RUBY'S SHOW (8) turned in a better run last time to find a minor placing (24.81) at Sale behind Valencia Jim in a Grade 5. Has the pace to be prominent. Capable of going well again. CAROLYN'S JOY (7) rocketed out of the boxes with a strong early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when third (16.72) at Healesville over 300m. Has a strong record out of this box with two wins and two minor placings from four starts. Expected to be in this for a long way. MILITANT STORM (5) returned a better run last time, finishing in the money (24.22) at this track behind Kurraca Kid in a Grade 5. Stalked the pace but found the line strongly. Hard to beat again. HARD PRESS (2) comes into calculations after placing most recently.

Solid performance after racing just off the speed to win by a head at this track over 500m (28.65) beating Talk Backs Back in Restricted WIN on December 20. Should be around the mark.
