Bendigo Race 9 - Avard Civil (325+ Rank)
MORTOLOX (4) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fifth (24.89) in a T3 Grade 7 at this track. The form from his last run is stacking up nicely. Worth another chance. PRESENCE (5) turned in a modest effort most recently when seventh at Shepparton over 450m behind Hooked On Gin (26.49) in a Bottom Up - Restricted Win. One of the main contenders. SASSY BELLE (1) has been out of the placings the last couple but was a Rank Limit - Maiden winner (23.04) three back at Geelong. Can hit the frame this time. DARRA MICK (2) missed the placings here most recently but can sneak into the finish with the right run.

Placed only run here over this trip. Last start finished last in a Bottom Up - Restricted Win on January 29 over 450m at Shepparton behind Hooked On Gin beaten 10 lengths (26.49). Below best last time but looks well placed here. Deserves another chance.

Could only manage sixth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest at double-figure odds when third (23.03) over 390m at Shepparton. Tough draw to overcome and looks tested this line up.

Backs up after winning easily by 3.5 lengths at Shepparton (22.62) beating Quest For Junior in a Bottom Up - Maiden on January 29 six days ago. This is much harder assignment and he needs to find another gear.
