Shepparton Race 8

Your Sold Real Estate Pace

Prize Money: $6,000

LOVE WATCH (8) is a progressive gelding made it two wins from three outings so far when he came from a back row draw to score at Bendigo last time. Draws for a trail and has plenty of upside. Strong claims. CORNISHTOWN KID (4) was returning from a let-up at Bendigo last start and performed well for third, beaten 2.5 metres after leading from a wider barrier. Can progress off that. SHES BEWITCHED (2) had been racing consistently before delivering last start at Wagga. Comes right into contention from another good draw. FOLLOWTHEACE (5) drew poorly and raced wide last start so forgive that and assess off a resuming second here two back.
