Shepparton Race 10

Elite Collars And Leads (250+Rank)

Prize Money: $1,530

PAW LAUREN (8) finished well back at this track last time when a 7 length fifth (22.36) but scored four back at Sale (24.73). Form from her last run is proving strong. Has ability and can bounce back. SWEET I AM (2) showed little early speed at her last couple, the latest finishing fifth (22.45) in a Grade 5 at this track. The form from her last run stacks up well. Should be about the money. I'M HONEY (7) started big odds in tougher last time when finishing 6th over 390m at Warrnambool. Scored at Warrnambool in weaker company the previous run. The form out of last race has been strong. Worth following up. BLUE BOY SHIRAZ (6) should be thereabouts.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (22.45) in a Grade 5, finishing a 4 length fifth. Yet to win but has placed two times from this draw. Key chance and should go close.

Was sent out long odds last time but charged out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 4 length fourth (22.71) over 390m at this track. Can't recommend in this field.

Last start finished fourth in a Grade 5 on July 2 over 390m at this track behind Happy And Numb, beaten 7 lengths (22.65). This looks too tough.

Was out of placings last time (24.96) at Bendigo in a Grade 5, finishing fifth and beaten 10 lengths. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed three times. Among the main chances.

Resumes from a four months spell and was a winner at only other fresh up run, scoring in 25.52 at big odds over 450m at Warrnambool. Comes out of a hot form race. Worth following up.
