Shepparton Race 3 - Book For Dining Xmas On July 28th Pace
IAMAWINGATE (7) filled a minor placing at this track two runs ago before finishing seventh at his latest appearance over 1690m here, beaten 25 metres. Meets a comparable field and he can give this a mighty shake. ARRAPS (5) recorded another strong performance last time when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 1690m at this circuit. Right in this contest. WHERES WOOD WOOD (3) disappointed last time when eighth over 1690m at this circuit. Draws low and can bounce back. MYNAMEISRUBY (1) gets the coveted pegs and should give backers a great sight.

Before that, hung in on scoring up, was well back in the run when 10th (Fr7) over 2150m at Bendigo was 10th-13.68 at the bell, beaten 10 m by Elleegant Lane (2:40.40) on June 17 at $51. Good signs last start and this looks a more suitable contest.
