Shepparton Race 1 - Pink Diamond Veterans Ht4
RIPPER RILEY (8) hit the ground running from out wide last start and crossed down to lead throughout (22.33) at this track in a Grade 5 over 390m. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings 10 times from 14 attempts. Expected to go well again. RAGING STORM (3) could manage only seventh at Healesville last time but turned heads when posting a handy 19.31 over 350m at Healesville the start prior. Expecting another bold showing. PEPPER RUSH (1) is a handy type who was well below best latest at Bendigo, finishing fourth (24.23) in a Grade 4/5. Generally a safe beginner but buried in the ruck from a squeeze draw last time. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. One of the better chances. OVER ACHIEVER (2) is worth consideration.

Ordinary effort last start when he was slow out over 350m at Healesville. Prior to that won by 2 lengths at Healesville (19.31) beating Zinzan Charlie in a Grade 5 on May 24. Expected to bounce right back. Hard to beat.

Found the going tougher last start when second over 450m at this track. That followed a win two back in 22.18 beating Scott The Pop over 390m at this track. Be tough to make an impression against this lot.
