Shepparton Race 3 - Sportsbet Ht2 (1-4 Wins)
CANYA KEEP UP (1) was out of character last run when missing the frame, finishing fourth (30.33) in a Mix 6/7 at Sandown. Generally fast into stride but was shuffled back from the tricky draw last time. Comes through a solid form race last start. Ready to return to form. INCLINATION (3) turned in a better run last time to find a minor placing (30.18) at The Meadows behind Paw Raelia in a Grade 5. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Form from his last run is proving strong. Expected to be in the finish again. HOLMES (4) scored (29.68) last time out at Sandown adding to an already respectable career. Solid record at the distance winning two races. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Hard to fault his form and he makes plenty of appeal. SOLID GROOVE (8) is worth some thought after being close-up last start.

Missed the frame last start when a 8 length fourth (30.33) at Sandown. Previous form sound including a win three back at Ballarat. Looks a leading contender on best and expected to bounce back.

Got back last start and could only manage fifth but before that won easily by 4.5 lengths at this track (22.16) beating How Awesome in a Restricted WIN on July 27. Needs to find a bit more to test these.

Strongly fancied last time and hit the ground running with a slick early split, giving a sight but could manage only second (30.18) at The Meadows over 525m. Comes out of a hot form race. Worth following up.

Consistent performer who is new here. Nice win last start by 2.25 lengths at Sandown (29.68) beating Breach in a Mix 6/7 on July 27. In top form and can make it three straight.

Form has been solid with minor placings at his last three starts. Last time out finished 2nd in a Grade 5 on August 9 over 435m at Sale behind Elswyk Sid beaten half a length (24.87). Racing well and deserves a win.
