Bendigo Race 9

Jake Klemm Carpentry (300+)

Prize Money: $1,530

SPICE ROAD (6) has a fair record and proved too strong last time to win by 1.3 lengths at this track in a handy 25.10 beating Bakali Surprise. Hard to go past. PAW NICKARA (1) is better than last start when fourth (23.19) in a T3 RSTW at Ballarat over 390m. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. MAISEY MARY (2) is having her first start around this track. Comes here after a last start 4th and beaten 2.5 lengths (23.22) at Geelong. Should be in this for a long way. ECCENTRIC MONA (7) can measure up with the right run.

Missed the frame latest (23.19) when fourth over 390m at Ballarat in a T3 RSTW. Starts from box 1 for the first time here. Has the ability and looks a key chance.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 4th in a Mix 6/7 on February 17 over 400m at Geelong behind Like Dynamite beaten 2.5 lengths (23.22). Placed two back at Warragul. Around the mark two starts back. Winning chance on that form.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage sixth last time out over 390m at Shepparton. Happy enough to dismiss in this field.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished last on February 11 over 300m at Healesville behind Grease Beast beaten 5.5 lengths (17.33) in a Bottom Up - Grade 7. Placed two back at Healesville. Solid formlines coming through that last run. Will be thereabouts.
