Bendigo Race 5 - Jarrod Larkin Concreting

SMALL MERCIES (2) finds it hard to break through. Hit the board with a minor placing last time when second (22.78) at Shepparton. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Top chance in this line up. FRANCESCA ROSE (7) produced a moderate effort last time when sixth at this track over 425m behind Ollie Reiko (25.17) in a Grade 5. Was in the money prior to that. Expected to run well. CRAIG KEEPING (3) put in a much better performance last start when in the placings at this track behind Hooked On Gin (24.43) in a Bottom Up - Grade 5. Led around the bend before fighting on well and should give a sight. Expecting another good run. ANGELANI (6) is worth consideration.

Charged out of the boxes with a fast early split and led for much of the way before being grabbed late, finishing a 2 length second at this track over 425m in 24.43. The form out of the last run measures up. Among the chances.
