Shepparton Race 3

Vale Neil Mason

Stake: $1,775

AUTUMN RAINS (8) ran below best last time finishing fifth (23.19) over 390m at this track in a Bottom Up - Restricted Win. Has ability and can bounce back. WHIRLWIND NISEKO (7) ran above expectations to claim maiden two back then finished fourth last start and beaten 3.5 lengths at Bendigo over 425m (24.77). Has placed one times at this track. Well placed here and should do much better. BLAZE (1) produced a modest effort most recently when sixth at Healesville over 300m behind Night Ralf (17.63) in a T3 Grade 7. Cannot be underestimated. PRESENT GIFT (5) will give backers a sight.

Missed the frame latest (17.63) when sixth over 300m at Healesville in a T3 Grade 7. Starts from box 1 for the first time here. Has the ability and should feature.
