Shepparton Race 7 - Celebrating Kevin, Leo & Warren Newbound Pace
SASSCILIAN (1) was responsible for a very good effort last time over 1720m at Melton, finishing second and just a nose from the winner. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Meets a comparable field and he can take this out. TASTE IT (6) finished seventh last start over 2180m at Kilmore, beaten 21 metres, after filling a minor placing at the previous appearance over 1720m at Melton. Meets a comparable field and she can give this a mighty shake. THE ACCIDENTAL ONE (7) is the next elect off a last-start win by a head at Echuca over 1755m. LITTLE WHIPPET (3) is the best of the rest after finishing fifth over 1755m at Echuca last time out.

Last start 5th (Sr4) over 1755m at Echuca was 8th-14.5 at the bell, beaten 8 m by The Ladybird (2:10.10) in NR 37 to 42 on March 10 at $71. Before that, was driven from back in the field when 5th (Fr5) over 2190m after racing wide at this track, at the bell was 5th-11.82 beaten 19 m by Miss Piggy Wiggy (2:44.90) in NR up to 38 on March 3 at $31. Better than the latest run and from a low draw gets his chance to bounce back.

Resumes. Finished off last campaign when well beaten into eleventh after being driven well back, behind Flip A Coin at this track over 2190m in a NR up to 47 on November 4 at $126. Capable of more than he has shown recently. Bold showing expected.
