Bendigo Race 8 - Hanrahan Plumbing
PAW ORENTHAL (3) is a capable type and proved too classy last time to win by 2.25 lengths at Sandown in a handy 29.60 beating Flying Ducati. Expected to measure up again. RHYTHMIC ENERGY (2) has a strong winning strike-rate over this track and trip with two wins and a placing from six tries. Was out of the placings last time (30.40) at Sandown in a Grade 5, finishing sixth and beaten 10 lengths. Looks a key chance on best figures. READY ONE (1) has a strong winning strike-rate here with three wins and a placing from seven tries. Hit the frame latest (34.77) when third at Sandown in a Grade 4/5. Can feature with the right run. TRAVIS INTENTION (8) must be included in main hopes on latest effort.

Has been in the minors the last two, the latest showing strong pace early but gathered in and finished a 3 length third over 595m Sandown in 34.77. The form out of the last run measures up. Hard to beat.

Didn't make the placings last time at The Meadows (30.76) in a Free For All, finishing a 8 length eighth. Goes well out of this box with a win and six minors. Has ability and can sneak into the finish.

Had been racing in honest fashion, recording three placings in a row, before finishing eighth (28.75) at this track last start. Awkwardly drawn and will need to find best.

Missed the frame last start when fifth and beaten 9 lengths at this track. Form solid prior to that including a win at Horsham three back. Has ability and looks a key chance.
