Bendigo Race 9 - Haras Des Trotteurs Trot

ILLAWONG LARAJAY (4) worked but dug deep to place two back at Melton then maintained the recent momentum last time out when she scored by 2.4 metres at Cranbourne. Owns a good record at this shorter distance. Big chance to go back-to-back. SUNDONS COURAGE (5) placed two back at Melton and was solid again when midfield there last start. Has won a trial since. This looks a suitable assignment. ALDEBARAN ACRUX (1) found form and finished in the money two starts ago then broke and finished fifth last start at Cranbourne. Draws to enjoy an economical run. Player with manners. Former Kiwi AARDIEBYTHEHILL (6) could improve at his second local appearance.
