Bendigo Race 12

One More Race To Go

Prize Money: $1,530

ACE REDEEMER (7) boxed on well to finish third last time, beaten one length (22.58) behind Serratus at Shepparton. Comes through a solid form race last start. Rates highly and will give a great sight. TESS CABANG (2) hit the ground running from the squeeze draw with a fast early split last time, but run over late and missed the frame when a 1.75 lengths fourth (22.63) over 390m at Shepparton. The form out of her last race has been franked. Expected to feature in the finish. BONE SHAKER (1) showed good early speed but faded to a close fourth (22.88) at Shepparton over 390m. Leading chance. KRAKEN HUGGIE (3) placed last time out at this track and distance - worth considering.

Comments

Was sent out long odds last time but charged out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 1.75 lengths fourth (22.63) over 390m at Shepparton. Some good form is emerging from that last run. Expected to prove hard to beat.

Could only manage fourth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest when second (23.56) over 400m at Warragul. Has a squeeze box to navigate and will need to find best.

Finished in the minors last time when third (23.35) at Geelong, making it two placings on end. Tricky draw to overcome. Looking to others.

Good effort to win last start by 1.3 lengths over 425m at this track in a handy (24.93), beating Ned The Knight. Will find this a bit tougher, others hold stronger claims.

Latest effort finished 3rd over 390m at Shepparton beaten one length (22.58) behind Serratus in a Grade 5 on September 11. Boxed on well at the latest run to hit the frame. Leading player.
