Warragul Race 8 - Shima Shine At Stud
DARNUM DIESEL (4) has a fair record and proved too strong last time to win by 3.5 lengths at this track in a handy 25.97 beating Ring Me Later. Form from his last run is proving to be solid. Can go close again if runs up to latest figure. HERE COMES JOJO (7) missed the frame latest (26.08) when fifth over 460m at this track in a Grade 5. Has already won out of this draw. Suited here and expected to run well. BLESSED RAIN (1) won again and recorded an impressive time after running them ragged to make it two on the bounce, scoring at Horsham over 410m (23.11). Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Sure to measure up. DAPPER CHAP (2) has been freshened for this and can hit the frame.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 5th on November 15 over 525m at The Meadows behind Aston Countach beaten 11 lengths (30.82) in a Grade 5. Placed two back at Sandown. Solid claims this line-up.

Charged out of the boxes with a strong early sectional but swamped late when a close up fifth (26.08) at this track over 460m. Should be right in the finish.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at Sale over 510m in 28.79. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when sixth over 515m at Sandown at R/A FIN level. Not suited by wide draw, this looks too tough.
