Shepparton Race 13

Prize Money: $2,925

BARRETOS (3) missed the frame last time when sixth (24.81) at Sale but prior to that had two placings in a row. Goes very well here finding the frame in each of three starts. Form from his last run is proving to be solid. Can atone. ART THE CLOWN (5) boasts a consistent overall record including 10 wins from 50 starts, but missed the frame latest when eighth (23.51) over 400m at Warragul. Form at the trip sound including nine wins. Meets a moderate line up and should run well. LITTLE MINNIE (4) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing seventh (26.02) last time in a Grade 4/5 at this track. Solid record here at this trip including four wins. Some good form is emerging from her last run. In the mix. TESS CABANG (2) collected a minor prize last start after leading - must be considered.

Facing tougher opposition than he has faced recent starts and current form just not to what is required to figure. Hard to have. Others look better.

Latest effort finished 6th over 435m at Sale beaten 6 lengths (24.81) behind Dr. Asher in a Free For All on May 2. Capable of improvement on latest effort. Well placed and should feature.

Was out of placings last time (26.02) at this track in a Grade 4/5, finishing seventh and beaten 5.5 lengths. Has one success and two minors from four starts from box 4. With a clean break looks hard to beat.

Missed the frame latest (23.51) when eighth over 400m at Warragul in a Grade 5. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and five minors. Looks suited here and rates a leading chance.

Showed strong early pace and stuck on well despite finishing out of the placings when fourth over 450m Ballarat in 25.75. Prepared to risk on this occasion.

In the money last time at this track (22.34) in a Grade 5, finishing a 2.25 lengths third. Yet to score but has placed each of two runs from this draw. Looks a place chance at best.
