Shepparton Race 3 - Adele Poyner Memorial Pace
MYNAMEISRUBY (4) finished third last time out, beaten 5 metres, in a nice return to form at this track over 2190m. Won't find this any harder and she can go right on with the job. TOMMYS LOOKOUT (5) drew wide last start and was never a genuine threat, beaten 12 metres into sixth at this track over 1690m. Meets a similar quality field and is good enough to take out a race like this. ATOMIC GLORY (2) is on the radar after his last-start fourth over 1710m at Ballarat six days ago. MISS HERMES (6) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish second at this track over 1690m. It would be no surprise to see her go one better in this.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 9th (Fr6) over 1690m after racing wide at this track beaten 20 m by Mammals Reason (2:03.70) on August 4 at $7. At the run before 7th (Sr1) over 1690m at this track, beaten 21 m by Our Mystery Bet (2:03.10) on July 28 at $11. Capable of more than he has shown recently. Much better gate this time and gets a chance to show his best.

Two back was well beaten into tenth despite hanging in on scoring up, after being driven well back, behind Final Bow at this track over 1690m on August 11 at $18. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5 m finishing third behind The Irishman at this track over 2190m on August 18 at $3.10. Form sound and expected to measure up.

Last start was well back in the run when 6th (Fr6) over 1690m at this track, at the bell was 8th-11.67 beaten 12 m by Our Mystery Bet (2:03.10) on July 28 at $2.30. Before that, a solid effort despite getting well back, when 2nd (Fr5) over 2080m at Cranbourne was 7th-12.4 at the bell, beaten 2 m by Tex Goes Bang (2:34.40) on July 19 at $3.60. Rates highly and from a much better draw can bounce back.

Two back was well beaten into seventh behind Treacheroustimes at this track over 2190m on August 11 at $12. Then a handy effort when beaten by 9 m finishing second after showing early speed, behind Smoking Shannon at this track over 1690m on August 18 at $13. Can improve. With even luck is a winning chance.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 7th (Fr6) over 1609m at Cranbourne, at the bell was 8th-13.4 beaten 13 m by Caruso Star (1:58.60) on August 16 at $51. Two runs back 3rd (Sr3) over 2180m at Kilmore, beaten 1.4 m by Dot Ball (2:44.80) on August 6 at $26. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

Failed to impress last start; 9th (Sr3) over 1690m at Kilmore, beaten 23 m by Hez Harrywho (2:03.20) on August 13 at $21. Showed ability the outing before when he won by 4 m after showing early speed, (Fr3) at Ballarat (2:04.60) beating Dancebytheseaside in on August 5 at $3.90 at the bell was leading 3.02. Will be in the finish if he finds his best.
