First
?:
Place – TRENZALORE
? Bendigo ? Race 4 ? Box 4 ? 660m ⏱ 3:03pm
TAB fixed odds: $2 Place (Top two finish required)
Form ? https://watchdog.grv.org.au/meeting/666538575/race/4


Second
?: Place – SYDNEY MONELLI
? Bendigo ? Race 7 ? Box 1 ? 425m ⏱ 4:07pm

Third
?: Place – DON’T IGNORE ME
? Traralgon ? Race 10 ? Box 2 ? 395m ⏱ 9:34pm
TAB fixed odds: $1.50 Place
Form ? https://watchdog.grv.org.au/meeting/666538572/race/10


The Watchdog says
? : TRENZALORE (4) will appreciate the smaller line-up and a top-two finish looks likely. SYDNEY MONELLI (1) has the inside draw and is expected to lead for a long way, so he should be able to hit the scoreboard. DON’T IGNORE ME (2) continues to impress and he should be in the mix from the outset.


Multi price: $6.30

? $2 Win – BIG OPAL ROCKS

? Must Watch Race ?

Fourth heat of the Group 1 Harrison-Dawson

? Sandown Park ? Race 6
? Box 3 ? 515m ⏱ 8:49pm

TAB fixed odds: $3.20 Win

The Watchdog says ?: There is absolutely nothing between BIG OPAL ROCKS (3) and AMRON BOY (2), however at the price, ‘Rocks’ looks a better investment. If he can gain a clear passage through the bend and head to the back in the top three, he should make his presence felt.

‘Must Watch Race’ Preview ?:

AMRON BOY (2) has won five-of-seven here to date and three of those have been in 29.10sec or faster. His latest win was in a breathtaking 29.07sec here last Sunday and he went through the first marker in 5.09sec, which was a PB, so with the depth in this event, he will need to run a similar sectional tonight. BIG OPAL ROCKS (3) can be a tad hard to follow, but he is one of the most gifted speedsters we have seen, and he destroyed a gun line-up at Wentworth Park two runs back. He has sub-29 second ability here and if he gets a look at them mid race, he will prove very hard to hold out. TITAN BLAZER (1) is Group 1 placed and he needs a mention. From the inside draw, he should be able to hold the early lead and he can carve out around 29.25sec.

? $4 Win – KELSEY BALE

TAB fixed odds: $3 Win
Form ? https://watchdog.grv.org.au/meeting/766390224/race/11


The Watchdog says
? : Although beaten on Sunday, KELSEY BALE (6) still turned in a great performance behind AMRON BOY and she looks suited tonight. The empty draw on her inside is a big plus, and she is armed with a dynamic turn of foot, so with an even getaway, she can light them up at the bend.
