Shepparton Race 8

Shepp City Fencing

Prize Money: $1,530

HOVERING (2) is in hot form after clocking a speedy 22.72 victory two back then followed up with a 26.36 win at Warragul over 460m last time. Flying lately and looks a key chance again. SHOOT THE BREEZE (1) finished well back at Bendigo last time when a 7 length fifth (28.98) but recorded best time of the card when winning five back. Should be about the money. SUNNY STRIDE (3) broke from a low draw and filled a minor placing last start, beaten only 2 lengths (24.32) behind Concrete Kaos at Bendigo. Although beaten ran one of the quickest times on the card last start. Expected to be in this for a long way. Something for the Multiples: LUNA'S GIRL (4)

Missed the frame latest (28.98) when fifth over 500m at Bendigo in a Restricted WIN. Starts from box 1 for the first time here. Looks a leading chance.

Hit the ground running and set it up early last time, clocking 26.36 with a long neck win at Warragul over 460m and making it back to back wins. Top chance to chalk-up the hat-trick.

Has been in the minors the last two, the latest showing strong pace early but gathered in and finished a 2 length second over 425m Bendigo in 24.32. Close to the speed and boxed on well at the latest run. Key chance again.
