Shepparton Race 6 - Saddleworld Shepparton Pace
MASTER MIKI (1) ran fifth last start at Bendigo over 2150m, beaten 11 metres. Has the benefit of a good draw. Finds a nice race and will be a major force. IAMAWINGATE (6) turned in a poor effort by his standards last time out when 25 metres away in eighth over 2200m at Ballarat. Form prior to that had been solid. Meets a comparable field and he can make amends. HIGHVIEW HAMMER (4) is on the radar after his last-start sixth over 1755m at Echuca nine days ago. Top-three candidate. LUVERBOY (5) could only finish sixth over 1690m at Kilmore most recently. Open to improvement and is in the mix for some minor money.

Resuming after a layoff of four months. Well beaten at the end of his last preparation at this course and distance when twelfth unwanted in the market behind My Lady Sarah. Maybe later.
