Bendigo Race 4 - Haras Des Trotteurs Trot
THE PRIESTESS (1) overcame a much wider draw last start when she raced three deep early before working to front and going on to score by 7.5m at Melton. Can take advantage of the ace draw to strike again. SIX NATIONS (3) has yet to feature in three starts off a spell but did show improvement last time when midfield from a tough barrier. Much better drawn and should be race fit now. Manners let RUN FOREST RUN NZ (2) down last start but was he was going well prior with a win and two placings from his previous three starts. Draws well so is worth another chance. QUEEN KIZEN NZ (8) will be improved by her resuming fourth from this barrier at Melton. ROMANTIC NINA (10) did a good job to come from this row and place last start at Maryborough.

Last start broke and was well beaten into ninth behind Im Above The Law at Maryborough over 2190m in a NR 55 or better on April 10 at $3.60. Raced better the start before that with a game effort when 2nd (Sr3) over 2180m at Kilmore was 2nd-1.07 at the bell, beaten 4 m by Kyvalley Judge (2:43.30) in NR 56 to 64 on April 2 at $6. Draws well and can bounce back with manners.
