Shepparton Race 9 - Ckh Painting (1-2 Wins)

MUG SCIENCE (6) was narrowly beaten when placing two back but missed the frame latest finishing fourth (23.03) in a Rank Limit - Grade 7 at Geelong. Look for sharp improvement here. MARKET ROSE (7) had been in super honest form hitting the frame three times on end before finishing fourth (22.83) at this track last time. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings two times from four starts. Must be included in calculations. LIL COCKATOO (4) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fifth (22.95) last time in a Bottom Up - Restricted Win at this track. Deserves plenty of respect. MIA BLONDE (8) was in the money last start and poses a threat again.
