Shepparton Race 1 - Shepparton Showcase Podcast Preview Show Pace
REASON TO LAUGH (9) turned in a better run last time out when third over 2150m at Bendigo, beaten 18 metres. Tackles a similar assignment and he can go right on with the job. NIVEKALON EAGLE (5) has had three runs this prep and is yet to finish in the top three. Added to the sequence last time over 2150m at Bendigo, finishing 24 metres away from the winner in fourth. Meets a comparable field and he can figure in the finish. VERY TEMPTING (11) is worth another chance after a last-start seventh over 2180m at Kilmore a week-and-a-half ago. JOEYS HANGOVER (10) is next in line but might need a few good breaks from an awkward draw.

Didn't do much at the last run, was well back in the run when 11th (Fr4) over 1690m after racing wide at this track, beaten 30 m by Iamawingate (2:04.20) on May 26 at $81. Before that 8th (Fr2) over 1690m at this track was 7th-9.88 at the bell, beaten 9 m by Mynameisruby (2:06.60) on May 19 at $61. Not doing enough to threaten the top few.

Last start was well beaten into seventh after being driven well back, behind Favouritehighlight at Kilmore over 2180m on May 21 at $21. Raced better the start before that where he won by a head as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr1) at Melton (2:07.30) beating Atomic Glory in on May 15 at $1.95. Strong winning hope.
