Bendigo Race 9 - Hanrahan Plumbing

STROP (1) was in the minor money with a decent 24.01, finishing second in a Grade 4/5 at this track last start. Expected to go close again if runs up to latest time. DIAMANTINA PEAR (7) turned in a fair 4th placed finish last time at Murray Bridge over 350m (19.53). Must be included in calculations. SWEET MILLIE (6) produced a moderate run last time when seventh at Shepparton over 450m behind Reckless (26.32) in a Grade 5. Cannot be taken lightly. PEPPER RUSH (3) is always hard to beat when he races here at this trip.

Hit the frame at this track last time when a 4.5 lengths second but did record a slick 24.01 over the 425m trip. Can measure up with a repeat of that effort.

Was big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, weakening late to finish a 3 length fifth (25.48) over 450m at Shepparton. Tested under these conditions.

Didn't make the placings last time at Murray Bridge (19.53) in a OPEN, finishing a one length fourth. Has two successes and three minors from eight starts from box 7. Looks suited here and rates a leading chance.
