Shepparton Race 5 - Gv Plaster Products Concession Drivers Pace
TALISKER SKIPPER (5) again drew a wide gate last start but did a good job, beaten 4 metres into second at Kilmore over 2180m. Taking on a better field but he is up to the task. CATIES SON (8) finished ninth last start over 1690m at Kilmore, beaten 15 metres, after a good third there the run prior. Will enjoy a pretty soft run from this draw, with the sprint lane to play a big role. Certainly cannot be faulted after that last effort and is good enough to win a race of this calibre. MONSIEUR FLAMEL (6) was responsible for a better effort last time out when runner-up over 1720m at Melton. Should run a big race. CRESCO THREEPEAT (7) must be respected after scoring last start by 1.4 metres at Albury over 1770m. Hard to knock winning form.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 5th (Fr4) over 2190m at this track beaten 6 m by Treacheroustimes (2:45.00) on August 11 at $12. Two runs back 5th (Sr1) over 1609m at Cranbourne, at the bell was 8th-14.6 beaten 10 m by Dot Ball (1:59.60) on August 2 at $6. Others make more appeal.

Didn't do much last start, was well back in the run when 6th (Fr6) over 2160m at Hamilton, beaten 15 m by Optimal (2:41.00) on August 10 at $26. Before that was well back in the run when 7th (Fr6) over 2200m after racing wide at Ballarat, at the bell was 8th-12.95 beaten 11 m by Imallattitude (2:44.80) on August 5 at $12. Not keen on his chances in this field.

Last start surrendered the lead and finished 7th (Fr3) over 1720m after showing early speed at Melton beaten 65 m by The Last Trip (1:59.40) in 3yo+ on August 1 at $23. At the start before solid effort when 2nd (Sr1) over 1690m at Kilmore beaten 25 m by The Last Trip (2:00.70) in 3yo+ on July 22 at $41. This looks a more suitable assignment.

Two back was beaten by 8 m finishing fifth after showing early speed, behind Elated at this track over 1690m on August 4 at $18. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.2 m finishing second behind Treacheroustimes at this track over 2190m on August 11 at $6. Right in the calculations.

Back in form at the last couple of outings, two starts back posted a big 5.5 m win (Sr4) at Melton (2:45.10) beating Altius in on July 31 at $4.60. Last start just missed, game effort when 2nd (Sr3) over 2180m at Kilmore beaten 4 m by Archaa (2:42.00) on August 6 at $3.30. In fine form. Bold showing expected again.

Last start was ninth after showing early speed, behind Hurrikane Dusty at Kilmore over 1690m on August 6 at $2.30. Performed better the start before with a solid effort when 3rd (Sr3) over 2180m at Kilmore, at the bell was 6th-9.52 beaten 4 m by Hiltons Spirit (2:40.20) on July 30 at $26. Big chance on his best form.
