Shepparton Race 12 - Two More Races To Go (300+ Rank)
CANYA IGNITE (5) is in top form notching back to back wins, the latest over 350m in (19.87) at Healesville. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in his latest win. In great form and can continue his winning ways. ASCEND HIBISCUS (3) has shown good improvement at his last two starts, hitting the frame latest when 2nd at Ballarat over 390m. Can measure up. TIPSY TURTLE (1) has been hard to follow lately, running fourth (22.64) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at Bendigo. This looks easier and expected to improve sharply. GAME OF PHONES (2) justified the favourite's tag last time - cannot be taken lightly.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 4th over 390m at Ballarat beaten 10 lengths (22.64) behind Buck Shines in a Grade 5 on January 26. Placed two back at Bendigo. Has been racing well. Well placed here and looks a leading contender.

Flew the lids with a fast early split but had to contend with second when clocking 22.41 over 390m at Ballarat. Close to the speed and boxed on well at the latest run. Key chance again.

Good effort last time when second (22.55) over 390m at this track. Will need a little luck early from the draw. Has to do a bit more.

Continued winning form with another impressive display to make it two in a row at Healesville over 350m (19.87). Has the ability and looks a key chance again.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when third (22.53) over 390m at this track. Drawn out wide but is worth plenty of thought.

Should get a clear run from the wide draw. Wasn't impressive last start but does have a great record at this track and distance, not far away last start. Right in the mix again.
