Bendigo Race 5 - Petersen Westbrook Cameron Lawyers Bendigo Trot
JUST A JOURNEY (3) has not raced for eight months but looks forward enough for the return after two recent trials, winning the latest. Maiden winner at Melton when last seen and as that was just her second start she has upside. Should enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Expecting a bright start to the campaign. BUTLERS WHARF (8) was better behaved at his second start and showed some ability when he scored by 7.6 metres at this venue. Can settle just behind them and wait on the sprint lane. Could go through his grades now. WOMAN TO LOVE (1) drew wider and raced parked but fought well to miss narrowly as runner-up on debut at Kilmore. This looks stronger but she gets the ace draw and is open to natural improvement. SAMMY HALLER (6) has come from the back row for fourth at his last two appearances and his lone win came at this distance.

Six-year-old mare lining up for the second time. At debut solid effort when 2nd (Fr6) over 1690m at Kilmore was 2nd-1.55 at the bell, beaten a nose by Beau Truscott (2:11.00) in MAIDEN on March 26 at $12. Nicely drawn and open to improvement.

First up. At the last run she won by 1.0 m (Sr1) at Melton (2:55.90) beating Rose All Day in 2yo MAIDEN on August 8 at $8.50 at the bell was leading 5.8m on the pegs. Draws well and trialling nicely so could make a winning return.

Didn't do much at the last run, 6th (Fr1) over 2180m at Kilmore beaten 30 m by Kiss At Midnight (2:48.10) in 0-3 WINs on March 26 at $71. Before that was driven from back in the field when 5th (Sr5) over 2190m after being wide early at Shepparton beaten 21 m by I Am Harro (2:44.60) in 0-1 WIN on March 17 at $101. Hard to have on those efforts.

Comes here second-up after two weeks. Lacklustre first-up performance when 7th (Sr2) over 2190m at Shepparton beaten 30 m by I Am Harro (2:44.60) in 0-1 WIN on March 17 at $31. May need more racing.

Last start by 7 m (Sr3) at this track (2:45.20) beating Farstar in 4yo+ MAIDEN on March 18 at $9 at the bell was 3rd-3.91. Strong winner last time and has upside so could go back-to-back.
