Bendigo Race 7 - Sportsbet Blackbook
LAURA MAY (3) broke a string of placings finishing in the money three on end before a last start fifth (28.38) at this track. Has a good record here including two wins. Yet to score from this box but has never missed the frame in two starts. Has ability and looks hard to stop. ALACRITY DAVE (1) missed the frame latest when fifth at this track (28.62) but scored four back at Ballarat (25.43). Leading chance. MR. FORTITUDE (5) has mixed form a little and missed the frame the last two but was a Grade 4/5 winner three back (28.40) at this track over 500m. Can improve sharply here. LES NORTON (2) is another with top-three prospects.

Last start finished sixth on March 25 over 525m at The Meadows behind Paw Quiver, beaten 5.5 lengths (31.00) in a Grade 5. Will find this a little easier. Has ability and looks a winning hope.

Last run was an ordinary fifth over 485m at Horsham following a win two back at Geelong. Others make more appeal.

Last start finished 6th over 595m at Sandown beaten 10 lengths (35.15) behind Crackerjack Gaz in a R/A FIN on February 26. Some good form is emerging from that last run. Expected to prove hard to beat.

Got back last start and could only manage sixth but before that won by half a length at this track (28.52) beating Kraken Scooby in a Bottom Up - Grade 5 on March 18. Well placed and among the chances here.

Missed the frame last time when fifth (26.23) at Geelong. Prior to that had been racing well. Has to overcome a wide draw and needs to find best form to feature.

Strong performance to win by one length at Warragul over 460m (26.31) beating Luca Skywalker in T3 RSTW on March 19. Hard to entertain this time.
