Bendigo Race 5 - Avard Civil (300+ Rank)
BROOMBRAE TOMMY (1) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fifth (23.32) in a Grade 5 at Shepparton. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. CHAIN DRIVE (4) has shown good improvement at his last two starts, most recently finishing 2nd at this track over 425m. Leading chance. LOCHINVAR GIFT (8) turned in a modest effort most recently when sixth at Healesville over 300m behind Our Alamo (17.39) in a Bottom Up - Grade 5. Better than last start and can bounce back. SHE'S ICONIC (2) should be thereabouts.

Didn't finish two back and couldn't make the frame last time when she finished 6th in a Bottom Up - Grade 5 on March 9 over 300m at Healesville behind Our Alamo beaten 7 lengths (17.39). Below best last time but looks well placed here. Deserves another chance.
