Shepparton Race 8 - Homesanddomes.com.au
HARD COMPASS (2) rocketed out of the boxes with a strong early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when second (25.86) at this track over 450m. Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Top chance in this line up. HOT CROSS (1) finds it hard to win. Finished in the minors latest when third (17.01) at Healesville and may be close to breaking through. Solid record here winning three races. Expected to be in the finish again. PAW QUANDA (8) had been in great form but was out of the placings last run, finishing fourth (24.39) in a Grade 5 at Bendigo. Generally a good beginner but was buried in the ruck off the inside last time. The form out of last race has been strong. Likely to be about the money. PAW JULIA (3) generally performs well from this box.

Last start finished 3rd over 300m at Healesville beaten 2.25 lengths (17.01) behind Abundant Lumens in a Grade 5 on February 6. Should be right in the finish.

Nearing another win after his success on January 14 at Bendigo over 500m. Last start was second over 450m in 25.86, behind Dad's Surprise. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last time despite being beaten. Follow up.

Good effort to win last start by a neck over 450m at this track in a handy (26.47), beating Jayden. Will find this a bit tougher, will be tested in this company.

Hit the ground running with a slick early sectional but ran over late and missed the frame when a 4 length fourth (26.09) over 450m at this track. Happy enough to avoid.

Was out of placings last time (22.54) at Ballarat in a Grade 5, finishing sixth and beaten 5 lengths. Has two successes and three minors from 10 starts from box 6. Looks suited here and can measure up on best.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at Bendigo over 500m in 28.53. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when fourth over 425m at Bendigo at Grade 5 level. Solid chance with even luck.
