Bendigo Race 5 - Mannings Greyhound Complex

LEONARDO ZEAL (2) doesn't have the best strike-rate. Hit the board with a minor placing last time when third (22.57) at Warrnambool. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings two times from four starts. Sure to be about the mark. NICKLEBY ACTION (1) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing eighth (31.46) in a Grade 5 H at The Meadows. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Should be in this for a long way. HELLO COOPER (3) has been out of the placings the last couple but was a T3 Grade 6 winner (24.51) three back at this track. Rates a winning chance on best. SQUIGGLY KING (8) can sneak into the finish with the right run.

Working his way into winning form after his success on August 1 at Shepparton over 390m. Last start was third over 390m in 22.57, behind Sarah Louise. Still to win from this draw but has been in the placings two times. Top chance.
