Bendigo Race 5

Jarrod Larkin Concreting

Stake: $3,629

SCHILLACI (2) last seen when scorching around the 425m at this track in 23.73 for a 7 length victory. In form and looks the one to beat again. PEPPER RUSH (1) is a talented type and proved too classy last time to win by a nose at The Meadows in a handy 30.27 beating Paw Whitley. Should be in this for a long way. LORRAINE JACKY (7) steps out for the first time at this track. Comes here after a last start 4th and beaten 2 lengths (22.20) at Ballarat. A big run wouldn't surprise. SHARAPOVA STAR (8) is a last start winner and can go on with it.

Good effort to score just six days ago over 525m at The Meadows by a nose in a Free For All. Has hit winning form and can measure up again.

Returns from a 12 weeks spell after being tipped out on the back of a seventh (30.30) over 520m at Wentworth Park. Yet to win fresh but has been in the money two times. Tough line-up and place prospects appear best.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage seventh last time out over 525m at The Meadows. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.
