Shepparton Race 14

Prize Money: $2,925

EARLY CROW EVANS (5) jumped from box 7 last time and ran away with an impressive win scoring by 6 lengths at Bendigo in a handy 23.77. Has the squeeze box to overcome and will need the breaks early. Winner at his latest appearance in the quickest time on the card. The one to beat again. FRANKY'S LASS (7) hit the ground running from an outside draw with a fast early split, holding on for a minor placing when second and beaten 2.25 lengths at this track over 390m in 22.27. Has performed well from this box with a win and two minor placings to her name from four starts. Expected to feature. BERSERKER VIKING (2) can sneak into the finish. Something for the Multiples: NIGHTMARE SWIFTY (3)

Comments

Sent out long odds last time but rocketed out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 6 length third (22.50) over 390m at Ballarat. Looks a solid contender.

Was out of placings last time (22.36) at this track in a Grade 5, finishing fifth and beaten 5 lengths. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed four times. Others appear better placed.
