Bendigo Race 4 - The Flying Magpie Cfnc

CHARLESTOWN (1) flew the lids with a fast early split last time, hitting the frame with a 1.2 lengths third (43.11) over 730m at The Meadows and making it two placings on end. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Can measure up this time. GALACTIC SPARTAN (5) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing sixth (35.12) in a Grade 5 at Sandown. Has never missed the frame here at the trip from three starts. Strong form has emerged from his last run. Has ability and is one of the better chances. JONI BLACK (8) should enjoy clear running from the outside box. Below best latest at this track (28.79) when 7th and beaten 14 lengths. Has never been out of the money this course and distance including zero wins. Has ability and can measure up. MEPUNGA BREEZE (4) looks an each-way chance.

Flew the lids with a fast early split and led until late but gathered in when a 1.2 lengths third at The Meadows over 730m in 43.11. Although unsuccessful last time still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Stick with him.

Was out of the placings last time at this track but prior to that had been racing consistently, notching three minors in a row. Boxed out wide and will need a little luck to feature.
