Bendigo Race 4 - Hip Pocket Bendigo

TORNADO TESSA (4) finished in the placings last time but could not have been more impressive three back in her brilliant 22.07 win at Warrnambool over 390m. Smart win three back and looks a key chance here. PHOENIX TAN (8) missed the hat-trick last start when sixth and beaten 5 lengths (25.75) last time at Shepparton. Form here sound including two wins. Has ability and can atone. GRAY GROUPER (7) is better than last start when fifth (25.52) from Box 2 at Ballarat over 450m. Has won two of five starts from this draw. Bold showing expected. CHEEKY MEEKI (1) has a solid strike rate at this distance.

Missed the frame latest (25.75) when sixth over 450m at Shepparton in a Grade 4/5. Goes very well from the draw boasting two victories and four places from 11 starts. Looks hard to beat with even luck.
