SIMONDS HOMES BENDIGO 2YO MAIDEN PACE 1650m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 21)    

ALIFETIMEFORLIVING (1) had a tough draw and was well beaten in the Group 1 Vicbred Super Series 3F Final last start but she did well to place in her semi two back when beaten less than 3m. She'll relish the class drop and draws to advantage so looks nicely placed. FORESIGHT (9) hinted that a win could be imminent when she did some work from a tough draw but kept giving to be beaten less than 3m here last start. She'll be nearing peak fitness fourth-up. ULTIMATE SAFARI (7) draws wide but placed the only time he has raced outside of the Vicbred Super Series so is much better placed. THE POSTMASTER (5) is a colt by Poster Boy on debut for Andy Gath. Has shown enough at the trials for a competitive debut.
