Bendigo Race 4 - Goldfields Catering (275+ Rank)

PAW AMARLI (7) is progressing well scoring last time out (23.52) at Horsham and bringing up her 4th career win. Shapes as a top winning chance on latest effort. TRICKY DISCO (1) jumped from an awkward draw and ran well to finish in the placings, beaten 1.5 lengths (25.62) at Warrnambool in Rank Limit - Grade 5. Is yet to find the frame here from two. Overdue and expected to feature again. MISS MAXIMUS (8) missed the frame last time, finishing 7th (19.84) last time in a Grade 5 at Healesville. Form here at this distance is strong including two wins. One of the better chances. DYNAMITE DOUG (2) won with authority last start. Must be respected.

Has been in the minors the last two, the latest showing strong pace early but gathered in and finished a 1.5 lengths third over 450m Warrnambool in 25.62. Capable of improvement on latest effort. Well placed and should feature.

Good effort to win last start by 1.5 lengths over 350m at Traralgon in a handy (20.40), beating Urban Bites. Was in the money three on end before breaking through at the latest run. Stick with him.

Form has been solid with minor placings at her last three starts. Last time out finished 2nd in a Grade 5 on September 4 over 300m at Healesville behind Cheetah Moon beaten one length (16.96). Predicted to struggle on this occasion.

Did a good job two starts back at Ballarat to win by 0.8 lengths in 22.58, beating Minter Delicious. Last start finished last on September 4 over 425m at Traralgon behind Dr. Fallon beaten 7 lengths (24.54) in a Grade 5. Cannot enthuse on this occasion.

Charged out of the boxes with a strong early split and went straight to the front, scoring an all the way win (23.52) over 410m at Horsham. Coming out of a very strong form race. Expected to go well.

Should get a clear run from the wide draw. Wasn't impressive last start but does have a great record at this track and distance, capable of much better. Worth keeping safe.
