Bendigo Race 3 - Simonds Homes Bendigo Vicbred Voucher Trot
MUSKEE (9) hasn't raced since a midfield finish in the Group 1 Vicbred Super Series 3CG Final at Melton in November but has won when fresh before and looks to be back in good order having won two recent trials. With even luck from the second line he could make a winning return. DISTANT SUN (6) is in good form. Finished fourth from a standing start at his latest appearance at Maryborough. Before that he came from this barrier for second at Melton. Primary contender. MAJESTIC TOOTH (7) came from this barrier when runner-up last month at Shepparton and has been midfield in higher-graded races in two outings at Melton since. PRETTYBOY HARRY (3) draws well and is a chance having come from trickier barriers to place in his last two outings.

Good performance when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind Karakajack Tooth at Maryborough over 1690m in a 2-3 WINs on April 10 at $6. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5.5 m finishing third behind Just As I Am at Kilmore over 2180m in a 2-3 WINs on April 16 at $23. Ticking long wall and draws for another good showing.
