Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted April 11 Journalists Share Posted April 11 What Bendigo Mile Day 2024 Where Bendigo Jockey Club – Heinz St, White Hills VIC 3550 When Saturday, April 13, 2024 First Race 12:05pm AEST Visit Dabble The annual Golden Mile meeting at Bendigo awaits punters on Saturday afternoon with 10 races set down for decision. The Listed Golden Mile (1600m) and Bendigo Guineas (1400m) headline proceedings on a track rated a Good 4. The rail sticks to its true position, with Bendigo’s marquee day commencing at 12:05pm AEST. Golden Mile Top Tip: Makram Makram has been impressive in two runs this campaign, beating Jimmysstar in Listed company first-up before finishing a length off Atishu in Group 2 company at Flemington on March 2. This is no harder than those races. Makram is blessed with talent and a strong turn of foot, and on the back of a genuine tempo, he has the finishing burst to salute in the Golden Mile. Golden Mile Race 9 – #4 Makram (8) 7yo Gelding | T: Ben, Will & JD Hayes | J: Harry Coffey (58kg) +750 with Bet365 Bendigo Guineas Tip: Roll On High Roll On High is a Group 1 winner in the making. The three-year-old filly finished 3.5 lengths off Tropical Squall in the Group 1 Surround Stakes (1400m) and then was beaten by two lengths in Group 2 company at Moonee Valley. She boasts a win over subsequent Group 1 winner Joliestar last spring, and if Roll On High is anywhere near her best, she should prove too classy in the Bendigo Guineas. Bendigo Guineas Race 8 – #8 Roll On High (14) 3yo Filly | T: Peter Moody & Katherine Coleman | J: Luke Nolen (58kg) +220 with PlayUp Best Bet at Bendigo: Divus Romulus Divus Romulus broke his maiden first-up with a dominant win over 1600m at Pakenham, then ran down his rivals over the Sandown 2100m. In this 2400m affair, John Allen will have the son of Fast Company settled towards the rear of the field throughout. Divus Romulus is armed with a strong finishing burst, however, and as long as he can handle the step up in distance, he looks the goods in the opener. Best Bet Race 1 – #14 Divus Romulus (11) 4yo Gelding | T: Nick Ryan | J: John Allen (54.5kg) +240 with Picklebet Next Best at Bendigo: Chorlton Lane If Chorlton Lane brings anything close to his best on his return from a five-month spell, he simply wins the Bendigo finale. The Ciaron Maher-trained gelding has two wins and a second in three first-up runs throughout his career, and he is yet to miss the top three in six runs at 1400m. Ethan Brown will likely have his mount in the second half of the field, but if the pair can gain a nice tow, Chorlton Lane should dispose of his rivals. Next Best Race 10 – #10 Chorlton Lane (8) 4yo Gelding | T: Ciaron Maher | J: Ethan Brown (57.5kg) +280 with Dabble Saturday quaddie tips for Bendigo Bendigo quadrella selections Saturday, April 13, 2024 1-3-4-7-9-10 1-8-12 2-3-4-10-16-17 2-10-15 | Copy this bet straight to your betslip More racing tips View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
