Bendigo Race 6

Gray's Bendigo (275+Rank)

Prize Money: $1,740

ARKANSAS (1) produced a modest effort most recently when seventh at Ballarat over 450m behind Sunshine Gold (26.47) in a Grade 5. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings three times from six starts. Should be very hard to beat this time. MY BOY HARVEY (6) ran below best last time finishing eighth (29.47) over 500m at this track from Box 1. The form out of his last race has been franked. Shapes as one to consider. PYRENEES BLAZER (2) wasn't far away at the finish when 4th and beaten only 3.5 lengths (28.87) at this track. Can do much better this time. NANNA'S BLUE BOY (3) can feature with the right run.

Missed the frame latest (26.47) when seventh over 450m at Ballarat in a Grade 5. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed three times. Key chance and should go close.

Comments

Was sent out long odds last time but charged out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 3.5 lengths fourth (28.87) over 500m at this track. Around the mark two starts back. Winning chance on that form.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors at big odds two back when third (26.18) over 450m at Shepparton. Has a low draw and is worth plenty of thought.

Hasn't shown any early speed lately and drifts back in her races. Last start finished sixth over 500m at this track, beaten 8 lengths. Prepared to risk on this occasion.

At the last outing finished last on June 7 over 300m at Healesville behind Evil Edna beaten 8 lengths (17.59) in a Grade 5. Expect improvement on the latest effort. Great chance to atone.
