Shepparton Race 8 - Ckh Painting
RIORDAN LOMAR (1) was well off top last time, finishing 6th (25.78) in a Free For All at this track. Has a strong winning record here at this journey including two wins. The form out of his last race has been franked. Has ability and can bounce back. ANALYZATION (4) hit the ground running from the squeeze draw with a strong early split last time, paving the way for a 1.3 lengths win at The Meadows over 525m in 30.54. Some good form is emerging from his last run. One of the prime contenders. PAW XENA (8) is a well performed dog and winner of 29 races who is worth forgiving after finishing out of the placings at Geelong (22.79). Form here at the trip sound including three wins. Key runner on best form. UNIVERSE (2) can measure up with the right run.

Resumes from a three-and-a-half months spell and was a winner at only other fresh up run, scoring in 24.88 over 450m at this track. Has performed below expectations at his last couple but is capable of far better.

Could only manage seventh last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest when second (24.07) over 425m at Bendigo. Aided by a low draw but will need everything to go his way.

Was out of placings last time (22.79) at Geelong in a Grade 4/5, finishing fourth and beaten 5.5 lengths. Goes very well from the draw boasting four victories and six places from 14 starts. Looks suited and should go close.
