Bendigo Race 5 - Sportsbet Blackbook (300+ Rank)
IRISH CARLA (1) is a talented type and proved too classy last time to win by one length at Warragul in a handy 23.04 beating Rattlin' Round. Winner at her latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. Hard to go past. DARE DEVIL (4) is a strong form, jumping from this same box to score (24.20) by 3.5 lengths in a Bottom Up - Restricted Win at this track last time and making it back to back wins. Expected to feature again. PRETTY PANAMA (8) hit the ground running off the low draw last start and was never headed (24.23) at this track in a Bottom Up - Grade 5 over 425m. Must be included in calculations. SON OF WITCHY (2) can sneak into the finish while fresh.

Good performance after tracking the speed to win by one length at Warragul over 400m (23.04) beating Rattlin' Round in Rank Limit - Grade 5 on May 14. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last time. Worth following up.

Inside draw could be an advantage. Last start finished fifth in a Rank Limit - Grade 5 on April 14 over 460m at Geelong behind Obliviate, beaten 5.5 lengths (26.59). Is a danger.

Won again and recorded an impressive time after leading to make it two on the trot at this track over 425m (24.20). With even luck looks hard to beat again.

Won two starts back at Ballarat over 390m in 22.50. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when sixth over 425m at this track at Grade 5 level. Not far from winner last time but has the job ahead here.
