Shepparton Race 8

Nagambie Gutter Cleaning (300+ Rank)

Prize Money: $1,530

BUCK SHINES (7) turned in a plain effort last time when seventh at Ballarat over 450m behind Sunny Stride (26.21) in a Grade 5. Better than the latest effort and deserves another chance. SPICY SEDUCTION (2) copped a check in the run and finished a well held 12 lengths eighth (26.13) last time in a Grade 5 at this track over 450m. Better than last start and can bounce back. BARRY BALE (6) was prominent throughout when winning two back then got further back last time but came home hard into second and beaten 3.5 lengths at Ballarat (22.48). Form from his last run is proving to be solid. Expected to be in this for a long way. LITTLE MINNIE (1) can sneak into the finish with the right run.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when third (24.51) at big odds over 425m at Bendigo. Has the inside draw but needs to bounce back.

Missed the frame latest (26.13) when eighth over 450m at this track in a Grade 5. Placed at all two starts from this draw. With a clean break looks hard to beat.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage seventh last time out over 450m at this track. Can't recommend against this lot.

Won two starts back when well in the market at Warrnambool over 450m. Last start finished 2nd over 390m at Ballarat beaten 3.5 lengths (22.48) behind Ruby's Show in a Grade 5 on October 6. Some good form is emerging from that last run. Expected to prove hard to beat.

Was out of placings last time (26.21) at Ballarat in a Grade 5, finishing seventh and beaten 10 lengths. Has three successes and three minors from 11 starts from box 7. Looks hard to beat with even luck.

Comments

Backs up after winning by 1.5 lengths at Healesville (16.89) beating Zippi Mustang in a Grade 5 on October 10 six days ago. Likely to find this a lot tougher and she needs to find another gear.
