Warragul Race 10

Shima Shine At Stud

Prize Money: $3,360

ART THE CLOWN (6) showed good speed off a low draw and there throughout but run over late when 6th over 400m at this track in a Mix 3/4. Form here at the trip sound including three wins. Has never missed the frame from four starts from this draw, including two wins. Can atone. GALLOPING JIMMY (5) was 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 3.5 lengths third (22.71) over 400m at this track. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and two minor placings to his credit. Will give a great sight again. LETHAL AVENGER (2) finished second (21.98) two back at Shepparton but out of the placings last time when 8th at The Meadows. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings two times from three starts. Leading chance. GOTHAM MARQUESS (1) has a solid strike rate at this track and distance.

Didn't make the placings last time at The Meadows (31.40) in a Grade 5 H, finishing a 17 length eighth. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Leading chance.

Has won at this track and trip. Last start finished seventh in a Grade 5 on December 10 over 410m at Horsham behind Gas Lantern, beaten 5.5 lengths (23.90). Can't make much of a case this time.

Flew the lids with a quick early split but had to settle for the minor money when third (22.32) over 390m at Ballarat. Broke a two-start winning streak with the minor placing last time. Can bounce back.
