The Meadows Race 11 - Di Battista Real Estate
PRISON BREAK (1) hit the frame last time at Geelong but the start prior rocketed around 500m at Bendigo in 27.54. Rates a top chance if runs up to time two back. CROYDON (3) looks close to another win after finishing third last time (29.70) at Sandown. Has a strong winning record at this journey. Goes very well from this draw with three wins and two minor placings from six starts. Expected to be in the finish again. ASH INTENTION (8) is progressing well with another good run last time, placing (30.07) at this track. Has won two of four starts from this draw. Expected to feature again. HIGHLY CONNECTED (4) scored by 0.6 lengths last time (30.06) in a Grade 4/5 over 525m at this track. Has three wins already from this draw.

Lines up chasing another win after scoring over 525m at this track in 30.06, set up by a fast early sectional. Makes plenty of appeal on that latest effort.

She hasn't been setting the track on fire and faces tougher opposition here. Not going well enough to consider.

Was among the placegetters latest at Sandown when a 5 length third but did clock a useful 29.45 over the 515m journey. Among the each way chances if runs up to latest.

Big odds last time but hit the ground running with a strong early split, giving a sight but fading only late to finish second (30.07) at this track over 525m. Solid formlines coming through that last run. Looks a major player.
