Shepparton Race 10

Byers Electrical Veterans (250+Rank)

Prize Money: $2,925

TINKER DOT (2) was in the placings last time but three back posted a slick 22.20 win over 390m at Ballarat. Has the ability and looks a key chance again. SOLITARY FLICKER (7) clocked a good 22.23 when filling a minor placing over 390m at this track last start. Should be in this for a long way. NALA'S GHOST (5) finished third (24.27) two back at Bendigo but out of the placings last time when 6th at this track. Solid record here at the distance winning two races. The form from his last run stacks up well. One of the main contenders. SIMPLY STYLISH (4) form at this distance reads well.

In the money last time at this track (22.23) in a Special conditions Veteran race, finishing a 4 length third. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and three minors. Key chance and should go close.
