Bendigo Race 2 - Vhrc / Del Re Foods National Pace
MYNAMEISRUBY (2) continues to race well having only once missed the placings in her last eight starts. Finished third last week at Kilmore, beaten less than 4 metres. Should enjoy an economical run from this draw. Leading hope. MISS PIGGY WIGGY (8) hasn't been too far away of late. Came from this barrier for fourth last start at this circuit and distance. Major player. HESTON CASH (1) gets the ace draw and should strip fitter so must be considered after he finished runner-up when resuming here two weeks ago. TUPELO BEACH (11) might find this easier than recent attempts so is worth some thought.

Second-up here following a spell. Game effort when 2nd (Fr3) over 1650m at this track beaten 9 m by Bettorsweetvictory (1:59.10) in NR up to 40 on March 25 at $23. Draws well and may be hard to beat with that run under his belt.

Fair performance when beaten by 5.5 m finishing second behind Dot Ball at Echuca over 1755m in a NR up to 36 on March 10 at $1.55. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Shiralee at Kilmore over 2180m in a NR 36 to 40 on April 2 at $6.50. Has a low draw and should go well again.

Two back was beaten by 8 m finishing fifth behind Home And Dry at this track over 2150m in a NR 41 to 46 on March 25 at $9.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Outback Queenie at Swan Hill over 2240m in a NR 38 to 44 on March 31 at $7.50. Nice effort last time. Heading the right way now.

Didn't do much at the last run, 6th (Fr1) over 2150m at this track beaten 65 m by Maxbeca (2:38.00) in 0-1 WIN on April 1 at $71. Before that 7th (Fr2) over 2150m at this track, beaten 18 m by Home And Dry (2:38.10) in NR 41 to 46 on March 25 at $31. Unlikely to threaten.
