Bendigo Race 9 - Bendigo Powder Coating Trot
MISS AVENGER (2) chased along the sprint lane and finished second last time out, beaten 4.5 metres in a good performance at this circuit and distance. Well served by this draw so could go one better. PLAYA DEL CARMEN (3) draws better than she did last start and was good when beaten only 1.4m into second at Kilmore prior. Primary contender from this favourable draw. ALWAYS SKYE HIGH (7) draws wide but has been tackling higher-graded races of late so may find this more suitable. ALDEBARAN MAVERICK (1) has been coming from wider or second row barriers so could be an improver from the ace draw.

Last start 7th (Fr3) over 2150m after showing early pace at this track, beaten 60 m by Kalarney Prince (2:46.60) on May 20 at $26. At the start before 6th (Fr5) over 1710m after showing early pace at Ballarat, at the bell was 2nd-0.4 beaten 19 m by Nuclear Attitude (2:07.80) on May 14 at $19.

Two back was well beaten into eighth behind Nuclear Attitude at Ballarat over 1710m on May 14 at $126. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4.5 m finishing second behind Kalarney Prince at this track over 2150m on May 20 at $13. Progressing well. Could go one better aided by a low draw.

Last start was well beaten into fifth after being driven well back, behind Kalarney Prince at this track over 2150m on May 20 at $12. Raced better the start before that with a good run when 2nd (Fr1) over 1690m after showing early pace at Kilmore, beaten 1.4 m by Massif Central (2:09.20) on May 7 at $12. Draws well so is capable of playing a major role.
