Shepparton News (250+ Rank)

Prize Money: $1,530

BLACK COMPASS (4) had been in great form but missed the frame latest when sixth (24.68) in a Grade 5 at Bendigo. Shuffled back off the inside last time. Has a good record here at this journey. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and five minor placings to his credit. Can discover winning form. ASTON CAMEO (2) looks close to another win after finishing second from Box 2 last time (22.96) at Warragul. Has a solid record from this box including two wins and a minor placing. Can measure up. FASCINATE BLAZE (5) doesn't win out of turn but looks close to breaking through. Continues to race well, filling the minors at the last three starts, the latest when second (22.38) at this track. Solid record at the distance winning two races. Must be included in calculations. IDYLLIC POINT (6) is new to this circuit but cannot be left out.

Charged out of the boxes with a fast early split and led for much of the way before being grabbed late, finishing a one length second at Warragul over 400m in 22.96. Has a strong record from box 2, including two wins. Go close.

Didn't make the placings last time at Bendigo (24.68) in a Grade 5, finishing a 6 length sixth. Has performed well off the draw with a win and five places from eight starts. Looks a leading chance.
