Bendigo Race 8 - Ag Tyres And Wheels (300+Rank)

DANCE LADY DANCE (1) comes into this as a quickest on the card winner last time at Shepparton, scoring by 1.3 lengths (25.69). Expected to go close again. MAJOR SHIRAZ (3) turned in a plain run last time when seventh at Shepparton over 450m behind Bonnie Blitz (25.82) in a Grade 4/5. In the mix. HOT SPOT (5) showed strong early pace and stuck on well despite finishing out of the placings when fourth over 350m Healesville in 19.88. Has ability and can atone. HOOKED ON GIN (2) is likely to have admirers.

Hit the ground running with a slick early sectional but ran over late and missed the frame when a 1.75 lengths fourth (19.88) over 350m at Healesville. Should prove hard to beat.
