Bendigo Race 3

Prize Money: $3,360

CONTRADICTION (3) goes very well this trip starting 21 times for 10 wins and six minors. Recorded a 1.75 lengths win (23.73) in a Grade 4/5 last time at this track. Looks suited and should go close. MY NAME'S EDEN (1) tends to drift back and work into the race, winding up late into second (20.10) in a Grade 4/5 at Traralgon last time and making it three straight placings. Solid record at the distance winning 17 races. Bold showing expected. PAW PRYDI (8) doesn't win out of turn but recent form sound. Has been in the minors the last two runs, the latest finishing second (22.43) at Shepparton. Has never been out of the money in three starts this course. Expected to feature again. BERNARDO BLUE (7) flew the lids and led all the way last time. Must be respected.

Hit the frame latest (20.10) when second at Traralgon in a Grade 4/5. Goes very well from the draw boasting three victories and four places from 10 starts. Looks hard to beat with even luck.

Didn't finish two back and couldn't make the frame last time when he finished 5th on June 15 over 515m at Sandown behind Mepunga Whiskey beaten 8 lengths (30.47) in a Grade 5. Hard to have this time.

Has been racing extremely well, putting three wins back-to-back. Had plenty of support last start when he won by 1.75 lengths at this track (23.73) beating Rhythmic Energy in a Grade 4/5 on July 17. Flying lately and can score again.

Was out of placings last time (24.44) at this track in a Free For All, finishing sixth and beaten 10 lengths. Goes very well from the draw boasting six victories and three places from 18 starts. Has ability but looking elsewhere this time.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at Shepparton over 450m in 25.75. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when eighth over 450m at Shepparton at Mix 3/4 level. Hard to envisage a win.

Strong performance leading throughout to post a big 4.5 lengths victory in a Grade 4/5 last start at Shepparton, clocking a brilliant 22.12 for the 390m trip. In winning form and can measure up again.

Flew the lids with a fast early split last time, hitting the frame with a 4.5 lengths second (22.43) over 390m at Shepparton and making it two placings on end. Solid showing expected.
