Bendigo Race 6 - Nutrien Ag Solutions Trot
HOLD THAT MAGIC (8) was responsible for a far better performance last time out, finishing runner-up over 2150m at this track after making a sustained run from the back of the field. Shouldn't spend a penny from this draw and the sprint lane may come in handy. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a major role again. MYHEARTBEATSTRUE (7) made a nice return at her latest appearance eight days ago, finishing 4.5 metres away in second over 1690m at Shepparton. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. Won't find this any harder, and she can continue the strong start to the campaign. AI SEDHAI (9) was unplaced two starts ago, then things went amiss last start when she broke and finished 16 metres away in sixth over 2200m at Horsham. Finds a nice race and can make up for that last start mishap. MAORIS RETURN (6) is the next elect off a last-start win by a head at Swan Hill over 2240m. Include in all combinations.
