Shepparton Race 2 - Infinity Coordination & Support Maiden Pace
PEPPERCORN BARRY (9) has been in the placings two times from as many runs this prep. Worked to find the lead and kept kicking only to find one better last start over 1690m at Kilmore. Meets a similar lineup and he can figure in the finish. MAXBECA (4) turned in another strong performance last time when he battled on bravely to finish second over 2100m at Charlton. Meets a comparable field and he can figure in the finish. SKYGAZER (5) is at the track for the first time. By A Rocknroll Dance and hails from the B M Thomson stable. Looks to have some talent based on a recent trial win. Makes plenty of appeal. MIKI SING (7) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish second at this track over 1690m.

Fair run when beaten by 3 m finishing third behind Mighty Bling at Bendigo over 2150m in a 3yo MAIDEN on March 26 at $9. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.5 m finishing second after being driven well back, behind Magnetic Storm at this track over 1690m in a 3yo MAIDEN on April 8 at $9. Rates highly. Has the same draw and gets his chance to break through.
