Bendigo Race 5 - Golden Square Hotel
THREE VICTORY (3) recorded her Best Time this course and distance last time when a 24.09 winner of a T3 RSTW in the quickest time on the card. In form and rates on top again. MASHED POTATO (2) ran below best last time finishing fourth (24.06) over 410m at Horsham in a Grade 6. One of the main contenders. BLACK HAWK (8) has missed the placings at his last couple but was in the money three back when third (20.32) at Angle Park in a Grade 6. This looks easier and expected to improve sharply. FRANKY'S LASS (7) cannot be left out after placing last start.

Showing promise but missed the frame last start when fourth at Horsham. Form solid prior to that including a win at Mt Gambier three back. Looks a leading contender on best and expected to bounce back.

Strong performance to win by 3 lengths at this track over 425m (24.09) beating Prickle in T3 RSTW on August 12. Looks well placed and can measure up again.

In the money last time at Shepparton (22.34) in a Bottom Up - Grade 6, finishing a 2.75 lengths second. Has a win and two places from three starts from this draw. Looks suited here and can measure up on best.

Ended last campaign with a fourth (19.97) in a TG1-4W at Angle Park and returns after a 11 weeks break. Has ability and worth including.
