Bendigo Race 7 - Great Ocean Road Real Estate Pace

WESTERN SONADOR (6) did a good job to come form the back row for fourth in the Ouyen Cup last start, beaten 3.2 metres. This should be an easier assignment and he goes well at this distance with three wins and three placings from seven attempts. MEDINA (3) came from a wider barrier and finished second last start, beaten 3 metres at this venue. Should get his chance from a lower draw. RABADA (2) had a tough barrier and was held up last start at Melton. Came from the back row to place here prior and draws well. ULTIMATE VINNIE (7) draws wide but hasn't been too far off the placings in two starts off a spell and should be ready to peak third-up.

Two back was beaten by 9 m finishing sixth after being driven well back, behind Lougle at this track over 1650m in a 0W/15 0K stake on April 8 at $34. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3 m finishing second after being driven well back, behind Tooram Magic at this track over 1650m in a NR up to 80 on May 6 at $8.50. Draws well so can be right in the thick of things.

Didn't do much last start, 6th (Sr3) over 1720m at Melton, at the bell was 6th-10.23 beaten 7 m by Perun (2:01.00) in NR 60 to 69 on May 16 at $151. Before that 7th (Sr1) over 2240m at Melton was 10th-14.18 at the bell, beaten 12 m by Ideal Bandit (2:42.70) in 0W/15 0K stake on May 9 at $41. Not keen on his chances in this field.
