Bendigo Race 11 - Sportsbet Blackbook

SPANISH ARMADA (1) has been hard to follow lately, running fourth (19.76) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at Shepparton. Can make amends this time. TACTICIAN (3) comes off an average performance last start when sixth at The Meadows over 525m behind Zipping Tyra (30.98) in a Grade 5. Was in the money the start prior. The form out of his last race has been franked. Shapes as one to consider. BAYINI (2) returned a better run last time, finishing in the money (23.04) at Shepparton behind Cinnabar Icon in a Grade 5. Has the pace to be prominent. Expecting another good run. SMALL MERCIES (6) is another with top-three prospects.

Hit the ground running last time with a fast early split and never headed, leading throughout to win by 0.8 lengths (24.48) over 425m at this track. Makes plenty of appeal on that latest effort.
