Bendigo (H) Race 7 - Strath Hill Butcher 4Yo & Older Mares Maiden Pace
WILD IDEAL (5) enjoys a class drop after tackling the Homegrown Classic 3F series, last seen when sixth in the final at Melton. In her only attempt outside of that series she was runner-up on debut at Mildura. She is nicely placed in maiden company. FUEGO CRUZADO (3) is back from a break of nine months and looks to be right up to the mark following a recent trial win. Has raced just once when fourth at Horsham. Has the benefit of a good draw. Expecting a bright start to the campaign. Last-start placegetter SKADI (1) can feature again from the ace draw while DIAMOND MAC (6) is also in the mix.

Four-year-old mare lining up for the second time. At debut 4th (Fr1) over 1700m at Horsham was 4th-7.6m on the pegs at the bell, beaten 9 m by We Favour Rosie (2:06.00) on April 8 at $101. Expect a strong return.

Finding that maiden win elusive. Last start was well back in the run when 6th (Fr5) over 1720m at Melton, beaten 18 m by Beat Sweet (2:) in 3yo No NR F on December 27 at $41. The run previous 6th (Fr2) over 1710m at Ballarat, beaten 12 m by Tough Shaz (2:05.10) in 3yo No NR F on December 19 at $71. Much better placed.
