Shepparton Race 12 - Two More Races To Go
PAW BASTOW (1) was in the minors two back (22.24) at this track but ran below best last time at Traralgon, finishing 6th. Has performed well from this box with a win and six minor placings to her name from 11 starts. Looks the one to beat on her best form. CHEEKY ALESSIA (3) hit the ground running last time with a fast early split and never headed, leading throughout to win by 1.75 lengths (22.47) over 390m at Ballarat. Sure to measure up. LILAH RAINBOW (6) unwanted in betting but showed good early dash and led until late, finishing second and beaten 2.25 lengths (22.37) at this track in a Grade 5 over 390m. Solid formlines coming through her last run. Expected to feature. TWO TRUTHS (2) can play a role coming off a short let-up.

Drawn the outside box and could be suited with some luck. Goes ok at this track and distance but recent form not good enough, failed to threaten last start and looks tested again.
