Shepparton Race 1 - Peter Cormican & Terry Logan Pace
MAJOR ORION (5) finished second last start, beaten 5 metres at this track over 1690m. Meets a similar line up so he will be hard to beat. ELIZAJANE (7) missed the placings for the second time in a row last start when 5 metres away in fourth over 1740m at Riverina Paceway. Recent form includes a win at Riverina Paceway three starts back on September 11. Tactics will be crucial from this wide draw. Meets a comparable field and she can finish a lot closer this time. IM DUSTEE (4) is the next best after finishing third over 1690m at this track last time out. WICKED MITZI (8) is worth some thought after her last-start fourth over 2190m at this track on October 6.
