Bendigo Race 10

Jarrod Larkin Concreting

Stake: $3,159

ZORBAS BALE (2) ran below best last time finishing fifth (30.17) over 515m at Sandown from Box 4. Looks the one to beat on his best form. PAW KRAMER (7) trailed the lead and fought on well to be beaten 4.5 lengths into third (22.67) at Geelong in a Free For All over 400m. Form from his last run is proving strong. Expected to be in this for a long way. PAW VARNER (1) is better than last start when fourth (23.52) from Box 5 at Geelong over 400m. Has a strong record out of this box with three wins and a minor placing from seven starts. Can figure in the finish. MY BOY PARKER (6) will be thereabouts while fresh.

Good effort to win last start by 1.5 lengths over 425m at this track in a handy (24.35), beating Break In. Will find this a bit tougher, others preferred on this occasion.

Placed last time (22.67) at Geelong in a Free For All, finishing third and beaten 4.5 lengths. Has two successes and four minors from 11 starts from box 7. Looks hard to beat with even luck.

Didn't make the placings last time at Shepparton (22.61) in a Grade 5, finishing a 9 length fourth. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Looks one of the chances.
