Horsham Race 8

Shima Shine At Stud

Stake: $4,650

DUSTIN (6) Led all the way when winning last run at Bendigo in 27.61s over 500m. Should be going forward early. Tracking very well this campaign. Big claims. PAW JASTA (4) Was nothing special when 6th last time at Traralgon but coming back up in distance. Should muster plenty of early toe. In good form since resuming from a break. Can push an each way bet for it. PAW RAELIA (8) Honest race when 2nd last time at Sandown Park and will try to take advantage of the box. Likely to be well placed early. Big danger. PAW NIALL (3) Mediocre performance when 6th last start at Traralgon. One at a bit of odds.

Odds of $7.50 and below par performance when 6th last time at The Meadows but has a nice advantage with a good draw. Sound chance.

Odds of $3.30 and subpar when 6th last time at Traralgon but back to a longer distance. Should muster plenty of early speed. Exhibiting good form this campaign. Looks a nice proposition.

Took charge of the race to win last run at Bendigo in 27.61s over 500m. Won't be far away during the run. Racing consistently this prep. Strong claims.

Strong effort to the line to win last time at Sandown Park in 29.91s over 515m. Should be swooping on the field late. Looking sharp on the track this campaign. Possible place chance.
