RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: This is a very good race with some progressive horses. MIKI B (9) competed in the Group 1 Chariots Of Fire three starts ago, one of the premier races on the Australian racing calendar. He was slightly disappointing last start, but has since had a freshen-up and should be suited by barrier nine, where he can follow through into a good early position. CO CAPTAIN (1) is first up here, and the stable has a high opinion of him, with the upcoming Queensland Derby on the radar. He is lightly raced, but has been competitive at a high level for his age group. He looks a nice horse in the making. FLOJOS BEST (3) is a smart mare with good gate speed who should be able to map well. TIVOLI (10) is in great form, having won two of her last three starts impressively. She has an awkward barrier here, with some of her main rivals drawn more favourably. Also noting ANGELS WATCHING (2), who is first up here for John Justice and having its first start at Bendigo after spending the majority of its career racing at Mildura. BACK: MIKI B (9) – 2 units (win)
