Bendigo Race 9

Avard Civil

Prize Money: $2,925

COOLABAH STATION (4) scored (22.44) last time out at Geelong adding to an already respectable career. Strong form has emerged from his last run. Great chance to get the job done again. PAW NASCENT (2) was strong over this course and distance last time despite filling the minors, finishing 3.5 lengths behind Air Speed in 24.07 and recording a new PB here. In form and looks a leading player again. FLUENT ACTION (3) three runs back clocked a swift 22.25 win over 390m at Ballarat then has found the minor money in two runs since. Top win three back and rates a key player again. STARLORD BALE (1) will run well despite no experience on this track.

Comments

Missed the frame last start when seventh but had been in strong form prior to that, winning two on end before placing two back. Looks a danger to the top few if returns to best form this time.

Hit the ground running with a slick early sectional but had to settle for a minor placing when a 3.5 lengths third over 425m at this track, clocking 24.07. Has won two races from this box. Expected to feature.

Has been in the minors the last two, the latest showing strong pace early but gathered in and finished a 6 length third over 425m this track in 24.17. Comes out of a hot form race. Worth following up.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at Geelong over 400m in 22.44 last start, beating Grab A Donut. Makes plenty of appeal. Go close again.

Finished fifth (25.62) last start at Shepparton. Prior to that had recorded three minor placings in a row. Tough draw to overcome and needs to find best form to feature.

Did a good job two starts back at Horsham to win by 2.25 lengths in 23.46, beating Foxy Roxy. Last start finished 5th on September 19 over 525m at The Meadows behind Mepunga Gypsy beaten 7 lengths (30.79) in a Grade 5. Has claims on best form.
