Shepparton Race 12

Rsn Grey Areas - Wednesday & Friday

Prize Money: $1,530

TINKER DAN (4) used the rails draw to advantage to get home last time at Bendigo over 425m (24.41) after leading through, scoring by a head. In form and can go on with it. TWILIGHT TORI (1) made it two minor placings on the trot when beaten second (22.52) in a Grade 5 at this track last time out. Expected to do much better this time. BOROUGH BOUND (7) was responsible for a modest effort most recently when seventh at this track over 390m behind Queston Bale (22.97) in a Grade 5. Was a winner prior to that. Shapes as one to consider. MISS MARCELINE (2) is in the mix despite finishing out of the placings here last start.

Comments

Hit the ground running last time with a strong early split and tried to lead throughout but had to settle for the minors when second (22.52) at this track over 390m. Leading chance who should prove hard to beat.

Could only manage seventh last time but the start prior hit the frame at double figure odds when third (22.63) over 390m at this track. Aided by a low draw and can measure up.

Missed the frame last start when fourth but had been in strong form prior to that, winning two on end before placing two back. Has ability and worth including among the chances.
