Bendigo Race 5

Peter Brown Custom Homes Final

Stake: $11,082

ASTON ALIGHT (1) made it two minor placings on the trot when beaten second (24.23) in a Restricted WIN H at this track last time out. Key player on best and expected to bounce back. SCOTT GNARLY (4) got around the 425m at this track to take a Restricted WIN H in a good 23.94 for a 4.5 lengths victory. Should be in this for a long way. LAMIA WHEEZE (5) goes very well at this journey having never missed the frame including four wins. Recorded a 2.75 lengths win (23.95) in a Restricted WIN H last time at this track. Looks suited here and can measure up. PAW MADDOX (6) is a last start winner worth following up.

Has been in the minor money the last two runs, the latest at big odds finishing second (24.55) at this track. Drawn close to the inside. Has to do a bit more.

Dual acceptor. Found the going tougher last start when third over 425m at this track. That followed a win two back in 19.62 beating Peaky Avenger over 350m at Healesville. Predicted to struggle on this occasion.
