Shepparton Race 5 - Vhrc / Benstud Standardbreds Pace
ROCK THE JET (3) comes here after making a move a long way from home and getting up to salute by 1.5 metres at her latest appearance over 1720m at Young when sent out as the $2.70 favourite. No excuses from this advantageous draw. This doesn't look as hard so she is set to continue her fine form. KRAKEY (5) continued a strong run of recent form and deserved his win last time out, scoring by a neck over 1690m at Kilmore after having raced outside the leader at the bell. Meets a comparable field and he can go right on with the job. ALTA BAYAMO (6) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish second at this track over 1690m. Rates well as a genuine threat. TOBYS SHOUT (8) is in the mix if he can recapture the form from two starts back that saw him finish second over 1690m at Kilmore after he raced three-wide for the entire trip.

Failed to impress last start; 6th (Fr4) over 2190m after showing early pace at this track, beaten 22 m by Blue Cannon (2:44.00) on October 28 at $6. Showed ability the run before when he won by 1.2 m (Sr4) at this track (2:05.20) beating Mystic Motiver in 4yo+ on October 13 at $3.80 at the bell was 2nd-2.43. Capable of taking this out.

Last start 10th (Fr6) over 1690m after being wide early at this track beaten 35 m by Tryx Vixen (2:02.60) on October 28 at $12. Two runs back raced just off the speed and boxed on; won by a head when driven back in the field, (Fr7) held up early, at Swan Hill (2:46.90) beating Miley Kay in on October 15 at $9.50 at the bell was 2nd-0.9. Prefer others on this occasion.

Hard to fault of late. Last start came from midfield and won by a neck as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr6) at Kilmore (2:05.70) beating Dot Ball in on October 27 at $2.90 at the bell was leading 0.81. Looks very hard to beat.

Two back was beaten by 8 m finishing fourth behind Wheres Wood Wood at this track over 2190m on October 20 at $3.20. Then a handy effort when a close second after showing early speed, behind Tryx Vixen at this track over 1690m on October 28 at $1.55. Shapes as one to consider.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 2 m third behind Over The Line at Echuca over 1755m M last start. Before that was beaten a head second at this track over 2190m in on October 28. Should be in the finish again.

Didn't do much last time out, was well back in the run when 8th (Fr7) over 2100m at Charlton, beaten 20 m by Sports Wrack (2:35.40) on November 2 at $26. Before that 5th (Sr2) over 1690m at this track was 3rd-5.93 at the bell, beaten 8 m by Tryx Vixen (2:02.60) on October 28 at $101. This looks far too tough.
