Bendigo Race 10 - Hanrahan Plumbing (250+ Rank)

TORNADO JACK (6) has a moderate overall strike-rate. Finished second (24.28) at this track latest and might be close to finding winning form again. Form here at the trip sound including 10 wins. Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Can find winning form. FLYIN' ETHICS (1) showed strong pace early from the inside rail and stuck on well despite missing the frame, finishing fourth over 450m Shepparton in 25.80. Bold showing expected. MOTIVATE (4) produced a moderate run last time when sixth at Shepparton over 450m behind Star Rebel (26.11) in a Grade 5. Key runner on best form. SHIMA BALLAD (7) must be included in main hopes on latest effort.

Was big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, weakening late to finish a 2.5 lengths fourth (25.80) over 450m at Shepparton. Has run slick time here with a 23.99 PB at the distance. Go close.

Flew the lids with a fast early split but had to contend with second when clocking 24.28 over 425m at this track. Boxed on well at the latest run to hit the frame. Leading player.

Well supported last time and ran up to expectations, burning early to score a 0.6 lengths win at Warragul over 460m in 26.23. This appears within his reach.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at Warragul over 460m in 26.51. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when fifth over 350m at Healesville at Grade 5 level. Not suited by wide draw, prepared to just watch this time.
