Shepparton Race 10

Elite Collars And Leads

Prize Money: $1,530

MR. BOJANGLES (2) missed the frame latest (22.80) when sixth over 390m at this track in a Mix 6/7. Looks a leading chance on best. RIPPER KEV (6) was a winner (24.13) at Bendigo two back but out of the placings last time when 6th there. Must be included in calculations. LION MAN (8) was safely held last time out, finishing seventh at Ballarat over 390m behind Compare Bubble (22.98) in a Restricted WIN. Strong form has emerged from his last run. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. MARKET ROSE (3) is in the mix despite missing out at this track last time.

Missed the frame latest (26.18) when seventh over 450m at Ballarat in a T3 Grade 6. Goes well out of this box with a win and two minors. Will need some luck to feature.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when second (22.49) over 390m at this track. Aided by a low draw and is among the better hopes.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fourth last time out over 390m at this track. Would be better placed in something easier.

Returned to racing last start with a poor run finished 7th over 390m at Ballarat beaten 9 lengths (22.98) behind Compare Bubble in a Restricted WIN on August 5. Other runners look much more appealing.
