Bendigo Race 5 - Avard Civil (1-2 Wins)
MASHED POTATO (8) turned in a plain run last time when sixth at this track over 425m behind Chappy's Hikari (25.21) in a T3 RSTW. Was in the money the start prior. Solid formlines coming through his last run. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. PAW XANDY (1) is new here but is worth considering. PAW OLENA (6) moderate effort last start when she finished 5th in a Mix 6/7 on September 11 over 460m at Geelong (26.87). Can feature on best.

Did a good job two starts back at Mt Gambier to win by a nose in 17.96, beating Saint Kylie. Last start finished last on September 10 over 305m at Mt Gambier behind Glimmer Of Hope beaten 3.5 lengths (18.28) in a TG1-4W. Capable of much better. Worth keeping safe.
