Shepparton Race 4

Shepparton News (1-2 Wins) (250+ Rank)

Prize Money: $1,530

PATS FOR RUBY (4) goes very well at the course and distance with two wins and a placing from six starts. Hit the frame latest (24.19) when second at Bendigo in a Rank Limit - Restricted Win. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. HARTLAND ROCKET (1) hit the frame two on end before being rewarded with a deserved win last time, scoring at Bendigo over 425m (24.20). Leading chance again. SO HOT SWIFTY (8) is likely to have admirers.

Solid performance after tracking the speed to win by a nose at Bendigo over 425m (24.20) beating Georgie Sunshine in Rank Limit - Restricted Win on September 12. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of the latest win.

Comments

Working his way into winning form after claiming his maiden success on August 13 at this track over 390m. Last start was second over 390m in 22.67, behind Lady Halime. Has been thereabouts of late and is among the chances.

Comments

Charged out of the boxes with a slick early split and went straight to the front, giving a huge sight but headed late when a 1.4 lengths second (24.19) over 425m at Bendigo. In the money last time and looks well placed to go one better.

Comments

Form has been solid with minor placings at her last five starts. Last time out finished 2nd on September 7 over 390m at this track behind Astor Ones beaten 6 lengths (22.50) in a Mix 6/7. Others make more appeal.
