Bendigo Race 7

Stake: $1,683

SMALL DEMEANOUR (7) was safely held last time out, finishing seventh at Shepparton over 450m behind Wandana Lad (26.07) in a Grade 5. Scored at his previous run. Solid formlines coming through his last run. Rates on top in this line up. RABADA (5) goes very well this course and distance starting 12 times for five wins and four minors. In the money last time at Geelong (23.24) in a Grade 5, finishing a 9 length third. Looks one of the chances. TESSA ORCHID (2) was drawn the middle but pinged the lids and led until the final stages, holding on for a place (26.27) at Geelong in a Grade 5 over 460m. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Expected to be in this for a long way. SOLID GROUND (1) placed last start and is in the mix again.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (23.50) over 410m at Horsham. Gets the rails draw this time. Deserves respect.

Charged out of the boxes with a fast early split and led for much of the way before being grabbed late, finishing a one length third at Geelong over 460m in 26.27. Leading contender.

Got back last start and could only manage fourth but before that won by 0.9 lengths at Shepparton (22.30) beating Gold Gizmo in a Grade 5 on November 28. Others have better credentials.

Could only manage seventh last time but the start prior hit the frame when third (25.65) over 450m at Shepparton. Tricky draw to overcome but in the mix on his best form.

Hit the frame latest (23.24) when third at Geelong in a Grade 5. Yet to win but has placed two times from this draw. Looks a leading chance.

Latest effort finished 7th in a Grade 5 on November 16 over 450m at Shepparton behind Wandana Lad beaten 8 lengths (26.07). Some good form is emerging from that last run. Expected to prove hard to beat.

Good performance after racing just off the speed to win by 0.8 lengths at Geelong over 460m (26.21) beating Laser Beam in Grade 5 on December 10. Can go well again with the right run.
