Shepparton Race 9

Byers Electrical (1-2 Wins)

Prize Money: $1,530

LION MAN (3) skirted wide from an outside draw and found the front, leading until late when second (22.52) at this track in a Mix 6/7 over 390m. Form from his last run is proving to be solid. Can measure up this time. PAW ALIA (7) turned in a plain effort last time when seventh at Warragul over 400m behind Patsy Stone (23.30) in a Mix 6/7. Solid formlines coming through her last run. Likely to play a prominent role. STORM (4) has performed well at her last couple of runs here, most recently when third beaten 4.5 lengths (22.59). Expected to be in the finish again. ROY (8) is worth including after a top-three finish most recently.

Got back last start and could only manage sixth but before that won by 2 lengths at this track (22.85) beating Energy Kiss in a Maiden on September 14. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.

Finished eighth (23.14) last start at this track. Prior to that had recorded three minor placings in a row. Aided by a low draw but needs to find best form to feature.
