Bendigo Race 5

Great Chase Ht15 (1-5 Wins)

Prize Money: $3,875

WHITE HAWK (3) box seated before sticking on well to finish 5 lengths away in second (28.54) at this track in a Mix 6/7 over 500m. Winning claims. LIZARD COUNTRY (1) did a good job to finish second last time out over 500m at this track (28.74) in a Grade 5, the second top-three finish on the trot. Expecting significant improvement this line-up. JONI BLACK (2) was a last start winner (30.24) at The Meadows who is building a strong winning record. Sure to be thereabouts. MAGIC LOKI (4) is not to be discarded.

Showed strong pace early but found one better when a 5.5 lengths second over 500m this track in 28.74. Has a fast 28.24 PB at this course and distance. Hard to beat.

Latest effort finished 2nd on September 26 over 500m at this track behind Zap Devere beaten 5 lengths (28.54) in a Mix 6/7. In the money last time and looks well placed to go one better.

Could only manage sixth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest at double-figure odds when second (29.62) over 515m at Sandown. Drawn out wide and looks safely held.
