Bendigo (G) Race 11

Avard Civil

Prize Money: $2,925

FRENZY (1) is progressing well with another good run last time, placing (24.04) at this track. Was a winner at his only start from this draw. Likely to be in the finish again. ROCK ETERNAL (8) placed last time (24.29) at this track in a Grade 5, finishing third and beaten 5.5 lengths. Has already won five times from this draw. Looks one of the chances. SHIMA STRIPE (7) stuck on well last time to finish 2 lengths back in second (22.44) at Ballarat in a Grade 5 over 390m. The form out of his last race has been franked. Expected to feature. LAID BACK LASS (2) missed the frame latest but ran a sharp 22.24. One of the chances here.

Flew the lids with a fast early split last time, hitting the frame with a 1.5 lengths second (24.04) over 425m at this track and making it two placings on end. Capable of a strong show.

Needs to do more than recent efforts, the latest a eighth over 525m at The Meadows. Happy enough to dismiss in this field.

Did a good job two starts back at Shepparton to win by 1.4 lengths in 22.31, beating Ripper Riley. Last start finished 5th over 390m at Shepparton beaten 11 lengths (22.88) behind Fluent Action in a Grade 4/5 on March 23. Not far away last start. Right in the mix again.

Showed brilliant pace early and gave a sight when a 5.5 lengths third over 425m this track in 24.29. Excellent record from this draw, including five wins. Go well.
