Shepparton Race 3 - Homesanddomes.com.au

DISTORTED HUMOUR (2) was big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, grabbed late but holding on to a placing when a long neck second (25.21) over 435m at Sale. Good form should continue. MIDNIGHT IN SALE (5) looks close to another win after finishing third from Box 6 last time (19.72) at Healesville. Boasts two wins from five starts out of this box. Expected to feature. TIGER SHARK (4) was safely held last time out, finishing seventh at Ballarat over 450m behind Zari Desiree (26.31) in a Grade 5. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Worth following up. NALA'S MANTIS (1) has claims fresh from a recent placing as favourite.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at Bendigo over 425m in 24.33. Followed that up with a minor placing over 425m at Bendigo at Grade 5 eight days ago. In form and another win would not surprise.
