Bendigo hosts an eight-race country program on Thursday, with a mix of emerging talent, returning gallopers and lightly raced runners looking to make their mark.

Bendigo Tips June 25

Workforce Extensions Maiden Plate Tips (Race 3)

Bendigo Roughie - Race 3 No. 4 Done My Job

There was support at long odds ahead of his debut at Ballarat on November 3, although he was well beaten in what proved to be a strong maiden.

The three-year-old was then given time before resuming at Stawell on May 18, where he made some inroads without threatening.

His best performance to date came last start at Casterton, when he made ground despite covering extra territory and found the line nicely into fourth.

Jump-out performances have suggested he will appreciate firmer conditions, and he should get that on a drying Bendigo surface after contesting three Heavy-track runs to date.

The rise to 1400m also looks favourable, with the son of Nicconi possessing staying influences on the dam's side through the family of stakes winners Sandmason and Northwest Passage.

Bendigo Next Best Bet - Race 5 No. 3 Our Justify

After an eye-catching debut second at Mornington on December 5, Our Justify went one better when remaining at her home circuit for start two.

That victory came over Silver Bullet, a useful galloper who has won two of his subsequent three appearances.

She then put in a shocker when contesting a Saturday metropolitan race at Flemington before heading for a spell.

Following some mixed jump-out form, the jury was somewhat out, but she could not have been more impressive when resuming on June 8.

Coming from back and wide, Our Justify finished runner-up with the fastest closing sectionals of that Benchmark 70, splitting a pair of gallopers with genuine city-class references, and while this is a sharp rise in the weights, it is also a significant drop in class into a Benchmark 62 against her own sex.

RMBL Investments Rising Stars Race Tips (Race 6)

Bendigo Best Bet - Race 6 No. 13 Star Trip

Star Trip may end up elsewhere as the first emergency for this Rising Stars event, with the Ciaron Maher-trained colt also holding nominations for Rosehill, Caulfield and Sale.

That is common practice for the stable and, should he gain a start, this looks a lovely first-up assignment in a thin country sprint.

His first preparation produced some excellent form, including a debut victory over Gold Coast Belle, who subsequently won four of her next five starts, including the Listed Bendigo Guineas.

The campaign then culminated with a runner-up finish behind Cavalry Girl, another galloper who has since franked the form with city wins in December and again at Caulfield Heath last Wednesday.

Recent Cranbourne jump-outs have been sharp and he looks a colt going places, so expect the market to find him should he line up at Bendigo.

Bendigo Value Bet - Race 8 No. 13 Komito

There was enough to like during his first preparation, with a runner-up finish at Horsham over seven furlongs recorded before he relished the rise in trip to bolt in at Werribee.

That victory saw Komito well supported for a Saturday metropolitan race at Caulfield on January 31.

He failed to fire in that city assignment, although the performance can be forgiven given it came at the end of his first campaign.

Recent jump-out work suggests the OTI-owned galloper can perform well fresh and the three-year-old finds a Benchmark 62 where he could be one of the few runners with genuine upside.

From a wide draw, expect him to settle back and find his feet early, especially first-up with improvement to come, although the rise to 1500m brings him into contention and, if they are making ground, Komito is at least an each-way chance in the finale.
