Shepparton Race 9 - Ckh Painting
REALITY UTE (8) steps out for the first time at this track. Missed the frame last time when 4th and beaten 16 lengths (23.76) at Warragul. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Should bounce back. NOT SORRY (6) beaten last start over the 425m at Bendigo but finished in the minors in a decent 24.02. This tougher but looks a leading chance again. BUFFALO COWBOY (4) scored a most impressive win two back then drifted back and missed the frame latest finishing a 5 length 4th at Traralgon (24.61). Key runner who gets his chance to atone. DIM SIM OLLIE (3) cannot be ruled out.

Was out of placings last time (30.76) at The Meadows in a Grade 5, finishing eighth and beaten 10 lengths. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and seven minors. Tough field and looking to others this time.

Was sent out long odds last time but charged out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 4 length fifth (24.16) over 425m at Bendigo. Missed the frame last time but prior to that had two placings in a row. Deserves another chance.

Was a little disappointing last start, fading in the run home at Traralgon over 425m. The start prior was at his best with a one length win over 425m at Bendigo. Look for improvement. Not out of it.

Hasn't shown any early speed lately and drifts back in her races. The latest effort was a 11 length fifth over 600m at The Meadows. This will test.

Returns from a five months spell after being tipped out on the back of a fourth (23.76) over 400m at Warragul. Yet to win but has placed from two first-up runs. Well placed here and expected to be tough to beat.
