Shepparton Race 5 - Racers Function Centre
PELICAN'S SUNDAY (1) shapes well after a solid run last time, finishing second in a Rank Limit - Grade 5 at Geelong in 22.64. Expected to go close again if runs up to latest time. POINT THE FINGER (2) unwanted in betting but showed good early dash and led until late, finishing second and beaten 1.5 lengths (22.32) at this track in a Grade 5 over 390m. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last start despite being beaten. Leading player again. OCEAN BURN (8) should enjoy clear running from the outside box. Below best latest at this track (22.90) when 6th and beaten 7 lengths. Has a strong winning record here at this journey including three wins. Likely to be about the money.

Hit the ground running with a fast early sectional but found one better when runner up over 400m at Geelong clocking 22.64. Fought on last time. Right in the mix again.

Charged out of the boxes with a slick early split and went straight to the front, giving a huge sight but headed late when a 1.5 lengths second (22.32) over 390m at this track. Forward showing expected.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fifth last time out over 390m at this track. Hard to tip with any confidence.

Good effort to win last start by 1.75 lengths over 400m at Warragul in a handy (23.14), beating Cindy Cabang. Will find this a bit tougher, cannot enthuse on this occasion.

Finished second last time (24.35) over 425m at Bendigo. Wide draw here. One of the better hopes.

Was out of placings last time (22.90) at this track in a Grade 5, finishing sixth and beaten 7 lengths. Has performed well off the draw with a win and two places from six starts. Looks suited and should go close.
