Shepparton Race 12 - Shepparton News (275+ Rank)

BLUE CHINCHILLA (4) missed the frame and safely held latest finishing 7th at this track following on from a win (22.60) there the start prior. Better than the latest effort and deserves another chance. SMILING BEE (7) pinged the lids and led throughout to score last start (24.55) at Bendigo in Grade 5 over 425m. Can go close again if runs up to latest figure. SHIMA SUNSET (1) was safely held last time out, finishing seventh at Ballarat over 390m behind Tinker Jack (22.96) in a Grade 5. Expected to feature in the finish. ROCKET RALPH (3) is worth another chance despite missing the top-three here most recently.
