Bendigo Race 6 - Avard Civil (1-2 Wins)
BAKALI SURPRISE (5) was safely held last time out, finishing fifth at this track over 500m behind Tiger Rocks (28.85) in a Bottom Up - Restricted Win. Was in the money prior to that. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings two times from three starts. Better than the latest effort and deserves another chance. TIME PERPETUATED (2) is rarely far away but tends to find one better, placing 11 from 16 starts. Hit the board with a minor placing last time when third (22.89) at Shepparton. Yet to score from this box but has never missed the frame in two starts. Leading player again. SHAGGY BEAR (1) turned in a modest effort most recently when fifth at Shepparton over 450m behind High Five Indi (26.08) in a Rank Limit - Grade 7. Was in the money the start prior. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. KRAKEN SCOOBY (4) was unplaced here last start but gets his chance to atone.

Suited by inside box. Latest effort finished 5th in a Rank Limit - Grade 7 on February 19 over 450m at Shepparton behind High Five Indi beaten 10 lengths (26.08). Capable of improvement on latest effort. Well placed and should feature.

In the money last time at Shepparton (22.89) in a Rank Limit - Restricted Win, finishing a 7 length third. Yet to score but has placed each of two runs from this draw. Looks suited here and rates a leading chance.
