Bendigo Race 9 - Gray's Bendigo Damsels Dash
ASTON LACE (1) returned a better run last time, finishing in the money (26.09) at Geelong behind DUNDEE SKYE in a Grade 5. Took the lead and boxed on but run over. Comes through a solid form race last start. Sure to be about the mark. HONEY STIRRER (3) was below best at her last start when 6th at Ballarat following a win (22.22) at Shepparton two back. Yet to score from this box but has never missed the frame in two starts. Worth following up. DUNDEE SKYE (8) was in the minors two back (25.34) at Shepparton but ran below best last time there, finishing 8th. Warrants plenty of respect. TORNADO TESSA (7) is a last-start placegetter who will have admirers.

Hit the ground running last time with a strong early split and tried to lead throughout but had to settle for the minors when second (26.09) at Geelong over 460m. The form from last run stacks up well. Hard to beat.

Finished in the minors last time in a Free For All at Warrnambool when a 3 length second but did run a solid 22.24 over the 390m trip. Looks an each way chance again here.

Didn't make the placings last time at Ballarat (26.12) in a Special conditions H, finishing a 11 length sixth. Yet to score but has placed each of two runs from this draw. Expected to go close.

Good effort to win last start by 3.5 lengths over 435m at Sale in a handy (24.63), beating Paw Allesandra. Will find this a bit tougher, not likely to feature on this occasion.

Consistent performer who is new here. Nice win last start by half a length at Shepparton (22.05) beating Kraken Whisky in a Mix 3/4 on June 15. Capable of a good showing.

Missed the frame last start when a 12 length eighth (26.07) at Shepparton. Previous form sound including a win three back at Geelong. Shapes well here on best and gets chance to atone.
