Bendigo Race 4

Jarrod Larkin Concreting

Prize Money: $3,360

FEAR THE BEER (5) is progressing well with another good run last time, placing (21.96) at Warrnambool. Has a good record here at this journey. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last start despite being beaten. Top prospect. PAW QUARK (4) was out of character last run when missing the frame, finishing fourth (22.42) in a Mix 3/4 at Warrnambool. Generally a good beginner but was buried in the ruck off the inside last time. Has a strong record out of this box with five wins and five minor placings from 12 starts. Has the ability to give this a shake. PAW XENA (7) was the fastest winner on the program last time out, running away to score by one length (25.17) at Shepparton. Looks suited and has winning claims again. FLUENT ACTION (2) generally performs well here at this distance.

Goes well at this track and trip. At the last start finished 4th over 390m at Shepparton beaten 6 lengths (22.48) behind Nancy Devere in a Grade 5 on February 13. The form from the last run stacks up well. Worth including.

Turned in a good run last time, placing (21.96) at Warrnambool in a Mix 3/4. Lines up from box 5 for the first time. Should have the speed for this.

Good effort to win last start by one length over 450m at Shepparton in a handy (25.17), beating Go Flash Go. Has claims if at her best.
