Bendigo Race 2

Hip Pocket Bendigo (300+ Rank)

Prize Money: $1,530

BILLIES RAINBOW (6) has shown good improvement at her last two starts, hitting the frame latest when 2nd at this track over 425m. Likely to feature again. CALLAHAN (4) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing fourth (25.88) in a Mix 6/7 at Shepparton. Should be about the money. ALL NET (2) is better than last start when fourth (22.67) in a T3 RSTW at Ballarat over 390m. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. EXCITABLE DASH (7) can sneak into the finish.

Solid performance after tracking the speed to win by 1.5 lengths at Shepparton over 390m (22.36) beating Commander King in Maiden on February 9. Draws the rail but this will test.

Did a good job two starts back at Ballarat to win by 3.5 lengths in 22.60, beating Ice Candy. Last start finished 4th in a T3 RSTW on April 8 over 390m at Ballarat behind Tribal Advisor beaten 2.5 lengths (22.67). Has claims if at his best.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage eighth last time out over 390m at Shepparton. Hard to envisage a win.

Nearing another win after claiming her maiden success on March 14 at this track over 425m. Last start was second over 425m in 24.46, behind Prickle. Has run slick time here with a 24.03 PB at the distance. Go close.

Was out of placings last time (26.37) at Shepparton in a T3 RSTW, finishing seventh and beaten 9 lengths. Goes well out of this box with a win and three minors. Has ability and can sneak into the finish.
