Bendigo Race 12 - Campbell's Comments
ZAMBADA ICON (1) broke a string of placings finishing in the money four on end before a last start fourth (22.36) at Shepparton. Has never been out of the money in five starts this course and distance. Should bounce back. CHAIN DRIVE (3) rocketed out of the inside draw with a strong early sectional and gave a sight but had to settle for a placing, finishing second (24.30) at this track over 425m. Leading chance. ELARA BALE (6) scored an upset win at big odds last time in a Grade 5 at Ballarat (22.47). Leading chance again. CRUSOE RICO (7) was in the money last start in fast time and should feature again.

Was out of placings last time (22.36) at Shepparton in a R/A FIN, finishing fourth and beaten 4.5 lengths. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed three times. Looks suited here and rates a leading chance.

Scored by 1.5 lengths last time (22.47) in a Grade 5 over 390m at Ballarat. Yet to win but has placed seven times from this draw. Looks suited here and can measure up on best.

Struggling to break through but racing consistently, finishing in the minors three starts on end. Last time out flew the lids with a fast early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when second (28.56) at this track over 500m. Fought on last time. Right in the mix again.

Good effort to win last start by half a length over 400m at Geelong in a handy (22.73), beating Shima Lite. Will find this a bit tougher, others preferred on this occasion.
