Shepparton Race 3

National Greyhound Adoption Month

Stake: $3,218

RUXTON SHINE (3) flew the lids with a slick early split last time and went on to clock 22.58 as a strongly fancied winner over 390m at Ballarat. Expected to be right there at the finish again. REEMA BALE (8) has been mixing form lately, hitting the frame two back before finishing seventh (17.28) at Healesville in a Grade 5. Can hit the frame this time. JARMON (2) ran below best last time finishing fourth (22.59) over 390m at Ballarat from Box 5. Strong form has emerged from her last run. Likely to be about the mark. ESPECIAL DIGGER (1) will give backers a sight.

Strongly fancied last time and hit the ground running with a fast early split, paving the way for a 0.6 lengths win at Ballarat over 390m in 22.58. Looks the one to beat.
