Bendigo Race 7 - Garrards Horse & Hound Trot
A poor start proved costly for PARIS JAMILLA (9) last time out but she had won two in a row prior, one here and the other from this row. Should enjoy a pretty soft run from this draw and the sprint lane is in play so she could bounce back. THE ITALIAN DREAM (2) impressed with a resuming win from a wide barrier here two runs ago then came from the back row for fifth at her latest appearance. Race fit and should enjoy an economical run from this draw. Leading hope. Manners can be a problem for RAKERO WARRIOR NZ (8) but a win from this row three back at Melton showed what he is capable of when on his game. OX KNOX (3) has had some tough barriers of late but should have no excuses from this advantageous draw.

Two back was well beaten into fourth after being driven well back, behind Desert Assassin at Cranbourne over 2080m on May 17 at $3.70. Then a handy effort when a close second after being driven well back, behind Aldebaran Abel at Kilmore over 1690m on May 21 at $14. Ticking along well and draws to advantage.

Last start was well back in the run when 8th (Fr7) over 1690m at Kilmore well beaten by Aldebaran Abel (2:07.80) on May 21 at $9.50. At his previous start 6th (Sr2) over 2240m at Melton beaten 30 m by Bennie And The Jets (2:48.30) on April 4 at $23. Has a better draw this time so could make amends.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Karbine at Ballarat over 2200m on April 23 at $23. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.75 m finishing second behind Amour Maternal at this track over 2150m in a M on April 29 at $7.50. Going well and is one of the contenders.

Solid run when beaten by 2.5 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Bullapark Beno at Kilmore over 1690m on May 7 at $9. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5 m finishing third behind Coltrane at Ballarat over 2200m on May 14 at $9.50. Can be thereabouts.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start was well beaten after breaking at this track on May 13. The start before 10th (Sr3) over 1720m at Melton, well beaten by Farrokh (2:05.60) on March 28 at $2.50. Manners are risky but he is capable on his day.

Bombed the start last time; 6th (Fr1) over 2080m at Cranbourne beaten 40 m by Desert Assassin (2:36.70) on May 17 at $2.80. Showed ability the race before when she won by 2.25 m after showing early speed, (Fr4) at this track (2:00.10) beating Artigas in on May 13 at $2.80 at the bell was leading 2.06. Has winning claims if she gets it right.
