Bendigo (G) Race 6

Gray's Bendigo (300+Rank)

Prize Money: $1,740

AUSSIE RAVEN (2) was a winner by a space two back when leading throughout but safely held when 8th and beaten 7 lengths at this track (29.19) latest. Some good form is emerging from his last run. Has ability and looks hard to stop. ANGELANI (1) crossed over from out wide but caught the leaders turning before drawing clear to score (28.80) at this track in a Rank Limit - Grade 5 over 500m. Can make it back-to-back wins. WHODAT WHISKEY (7) turned in a plain run last time when seventh at this track over 500m behind Lightheartedness (29.13) in a Rank Limit - Grade 5. The form out of last race has been strong. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. AMRON BUSTER (8) is worth including after a top-three finish at big odds most recently.
