Horsham Race 8

Shima Shine At Stud

Prize Money: $3,875

STARBORN (5) is worth forgiving last start after finishing eighth (30.31) from Box 3 at Sandown over 515m. Should be very hard to beat this time. PAW NIALL (4) hit the frame latest (26.27) when third at Warragul in a Grade 5. Has already won three times from this draw. Looks a key chance on best figures. PAW JASTA (1) crossed over from out wide last start before finishing third (30.09) at Sandown in a Grade 5 over 515m. Has performed well from this box with a win and five minor placings to his name from 10 starts. Leading player again. ZAMBORA BLISS (2) is always a threat when he races at this journey.

Comments

Big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, grabbed late but holding on to a placing when a 3 length third (30.09) over 515m at Sandown. Well-performed from this box. Key chance on best form.

Back from a three-and-a-half months spell and last resumed over 595m at Sandown where he was in the placings, finishing third. Has claims on best form.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when second (29.90) at big odds over 515m at Sandown. Draws an inside box and is among the better hopes.

In the money last time at Warragul (26.27) in a Grade 5, finishing a 7 length third. Goes very well off the draw boasting three wins and two places from seven starts. Looks suited here and rates a leading chance.

Latest effort finished last in a Grade 5 on September 10 over 515m at Sandown behind Mepunga Turbo beaten 13 lengths (30.31). Below best last time but looks well placed here. Deserves another chance.

Missed the frame last start when seventh but had been in strong form prior to that, winning two on end before placing two back. Has ability but will need everything to go right.
