Bendigo Race 6 - Ropan Financial Planning Group Pace
MAJOR BLITZ (7) is a progressive colt who made it two wins from two start this prep when he worked to the front from this barrier and got the cash by 1.5 metres at Ballarat. His record at this distance stands at two wins and a placing from three attempts. Take beating. TOORAM MAGIC (8) made it two wins from his last three starts when he came from this row and scored by a nose at Melton last time out. Draws for a nice trail and won the only time he raced over this distance here. PERUN NZ (9) won his lone visit to this venue and is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win from this barrier at Melton. LEAVEMEOUT (4) must be respected after saluting by 9.5 metres at Cranbourne last week.

Last start 7th (Fr6) over 2080m after showing early pace at Cranbourne, beaten 18 m by Sols Me Name (2:32.50) on May 24 at $18. Before that, a game effort when 3rd (Fr6) over 2040m after showing early pace at Ouyen was leading by 1.4 at the bell, beaten 2.5 m by Rocknroll Willow (2:30.20) on May 10 at $34. Draws well so can bounce back to best form.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 4th (Fr7) over 1720m after being wide early at Melton, at the bell was 5th-9.3 beaten 5 m by Highlandhartbreaka (2:05.70) on May 1 at $19. Two runs back 3rd (Fr2) over 1720m at Melton, at the bell was 4th-4.81 beaten 10 m by Lambro Mach (2:01.70) on April 24 at $31. This looks a far sterner test.

Three-year-old colt is racing in fine form. Won his last two outings at Ballarat and this track. Last start won by 1.5 m as favourite when quickly away, (Fr7) at Ballarat (2:02.80) beating Montana Pride in on May 14 at $2.15 at the bell was leading 1.81. Can maintain his perfect record this time in.
