Bendigo Race 12 - Braidies Tavern (275+ Rank)

KNOCKABOUT KID (2) was prominent early off a low draw but weakened and dropped out when 5th over 525m at The Meadows in Grade 5 company. Should bounce back. TALTARNI BLUE (1) was strongly fancied last time and hit the ground running with a fast early split, paving the way for a 3 length win at this track over 425m in 24.11. The form out of her last race has been franked. Has hit winning form and can measure up again. ASCEND HIBISCUS (3) is a capable type and proved too strong last time to win by 1.75 lengths at Healesville in a handy 16.89 beating Dunsmore Flyer. Form from his last run is proving strong. Bold showing expected again. MISS MY BROTHER (7) looks an each-way chance.

Flew the lids with a slick early split last time and went on to clock 24.11 as a strongly fancied winner over 425m at this track. Can make it two on the bounce.

Returns from a eight months spell after being tipped out on the back of a fifth (32.06) over 525m at The Meadows. Looks a key runner while fresh.

Quickly out of the boxes with a slick early sectional clocking 16.89 with a 1.75 lengths win at Healesville over 300m. Strong form emerging from the last run. Looks one of the chances.
