Shepparton Race 6 - Yarrawonga Refrigeration & Airconditioning Wangaratta Pacing Cup
NUGGET ROGERS (5) could only manage to finish seventh at his latest appearance over 1690m at this track, failing to live up to market expectations. Taking on a better field but he is up to the task. FIRE MARSHALL (7) found a couple better two runs back then made mistakes last time when he broke and finished 11 metres back in sixth over 1710m at Ballarat. Will need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position. Facing a tougher assignment but he is up to the challenge. WITH IN REASON (3) finished second last start over 2250m at Boort. Generally runs very well at this circuit so can play a big role. MOMENTUM SHIFT (11) is in the mix following a fifth at his most recent appearance over 1720m at Melton.

Ran well last start showing plenty of improvement following January 12 run. Just managed to hang on and win ran on strong from last on the turn and won by a head when driven back in the field, (Fr5) held up early, at this track (2:03.20) beating Spirit Of Sahara in NR up to 55 on January 17 at $3.50 at the bell was 6th-12.21. This race will be harder than that win. Might find this beyond him.

Two back was beaten by 7 m finishing second behind Interpretation at this track over 2190m in a NR 50 to 56 on February 17 at $7. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Lewielewis at Boort over 2250m in a NR 56 to 64 on March 1 at $5. Has a low draw and will go well again.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 5th (Fr7) over 2180m at Kilmore beaten 40 m by Isolation (2:40.80) in NR 52 to 56 on February 26 at $31. Two runs back 3rd (Fr2) over 1770m after showing early pace at Albury, at the bell was leading 1.2 beaten 7 m by Usyk (2:09.50) in NR up to 60 on February 13 at $31. This looks too tough.
