Shepparton Race 6 - Ckh Painting
RED HOT PRETTY (2) turned in a modest effort most recently when eighth at Healesville over 350m behind Ridiculous (19.94) in a Grade 5. Was in the money prior to that. Has performed well from this box with a win and two minor placings to her name from five starts. Has claims if she runs up to expectations. BUSTER BOURBSKI (1) doesn't win out of turn but looks close to breaking through. Has hit the frame the last two runs, the latest when third (17.16) at Healesville. Expecting another good run. JAICOS (4) held his own to the line last start and filled a minor placing, beaten only 2 lengths (24.48) behind Paw Brody at Bendigo. Some good form is emerging from his last run. Overdue and is among the main hopes. GREMLIN (7) will need to run right up to last start to feature again.

Last start finished 3rd on May 1 over 300m at Healesville behind Glamorous Jewel beaten 1.75 lengths (17.16) in a Grade 5. Has been around the mark at his last couple and should make his presence felt.

Didn't make the placings last time at Ballarat (22.51) in a Grade 5, finishing a 4.5 lengths fourth. Yet to win but has placed three times from this draw. Looks a place chance at best.

Hit the ground running with a fast early sectional but found one better when runner up over 425m at Bendigo clocking 24.48. Some good form is emerging from that last run. Expected to prove hard to beat.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 1.5 lengths in 25.99, beating Belgium Slice. Last start finished last over 500m at Bendigo beaten 19 lengths (29.99) behind Serrated Edge in a T3 RSTW on October 15. Can't enthuse on this occasion.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at Bendigo over 425m in 24.66 last start, beating Paw Ucarty. Among the chances and worth following up.

Resumes from a four-and-a-half months spell and was in the minors at only other fresh up run, finishing second at big odds over 425m at Bendigo. Not far away last time but this is a stiff test.
