Bendigo Race 2 - Hip Pocket Bendigo (1-2 Wins)(300+ Rank)

DARE DEVIL (4) is a talented type and proved too classy last time to win by 2 lengths at this track in a handy 24.31 beating Chappy's Banshee. Can make it back-to-back wins. BIG WEEKEND (2) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing fourth (26.07) in a T3 Grade 6 at Ballarat. Should play a prominent role. HOLLY BLUE GIRL (8) was below best at her last start when 6th at Ballarat following a third place finish (22.92) there two back. Expected to give a good account. IDYLLIC MEYER (1) can sneak into the finish.
