Bendigo Race 4 - Jarrod Larkin Concreting
SCOTT CHARISMA (1) was strongly fancied last time on the back of a win two back but could only manage third (22.15) at Shepparton. Yet to score from this box but has never missed the frame in five starts. Leading chance again. THIS BLACK DUCK (2) goes very well at the distance with seven wins and a placing from 11 starts. Comes off a (22.08) win last time, scoring by 1.5 lengths in a Grade 4/5 over 390m at Shepparton. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts. ASCEND IGLOO (7) is in consistent form, jumping from this same box when a 2 length second in a Grade 4/5 at Shepparton and making it back to back minors. Rates a key player. LIVING (3) has strong credentials over this journey.

Finished in the minors last time but the start prior was an eye-catching winner after leading throughout, scoring by 1.3 lengths in a Grade 5 at this track and recording a handy 24.04 over the 425m journey. Expected to push the clock again here.

Solid performance after tracking the speed to win by 1.5 lengths at Shepparton over 390m (22.08) beating Paw Clarissa in Grade 4/5 on February 23. Unbeaten in three starts from this box. Key runner.

Missed the frame last start when seventh and beaten 4.5 lengths at Shepparton. Form solid prior to that including a win at Warrnambool three back. Better than last run and looks an each way chance.
