Bendigo Race 6

Mannings Greyhound Complex (300+ Rank)

Prize Money: $1,530

CRAIG KEEPING (1) is worth forgiving last start after finishing sixth (25.02) from Box 4 at this track over 425m. Has a very good strike-rate from this draw, with two wins from five starts. Key runner on his best form. JAYDEN (3) turned in a plain effort last time when eighth at this track over 425m behind Trajectory (24.93) in a Grade 5. Was in the money prior to that. Worth another chance. FRANCESCA ROSE (2) crossed over from out wide last start before finishing third (24.83) at this track in a Grade 5 over 425m. Expected to be in the finish again. URANA WHIRLWIND (8) with some luck can improve on an unplaced run last time here.

Ran a better race when third behind Tipsy Turtle at this track last start over 425m (24.83). Good beginner who shouldn't be far away in the run.

Latest effort finished last in a Grade 5 on February 25 over 425m at this track behind Trajectory beaten 7 lengths (24.93). Below best last time but looks well placed here. Deserves another chance.

Good effort to win last start by 1.75 lengths over 390m at Shepparton in a handy (22.39), beating Like A Blaze. In winning form now and looks a major threat.
