Shepparton Race 12 - Two More Races To Go
BLUES TRAIN (2) returned a better run last time, finishing in the money (22.71) at this track behind Belgium Slice in a Grade 5. Has the pace to be prominent. Must come into calculations. BULLSEYE BOB (1) turned in a moderate performance last time when fifth at this track over 390m behind Chilli Crumpet (22.72) in a Grade 5. Placed at his previous run. Likely to play a prominent role. SMILING LILY (4) boasts a strong record this course with two wins and two minors from five tries. Was out of placings last time (23.45) at Geelong in a Grade 5, finishing seventh and beaten 15 lengths. With even luck and a clean start should be around the money. HAPPY BUDDHA (6) looks an each-way chance.

Could only manage fifth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest when third (22.76) over 390m at this track. Drawn a inside box but will need to find best.

Was out of placings last time (17.09) at Healesville in a Grade 5, finishing sixth and beaten 5 lengths. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Makes appeal on best.
