Shepparton – Tuesday, 4th November 2025

12 – Aussie Jay Mac

7 – Colorado Girl

1 – Captain Grin

4 – Master Miki

 

R2 – 7:16pm – Efex Pace – 2190m

R5 – 9:00pm – Neatline Vicbred Voucher Mares Pace – 1690m 

4 – Lilstrepo

8 – Kualight

1 – Princess Arna

6 – Majors Creek

Strategy:

Lilstrepo is well placed here as a four-time winner this season against her own sex. She has the early speed to settle forward, and if she can replicate the times she’s been running recently, she should prove too sharp for these.

BACK: 4 Lilstrepo – 3 Units (win)

 

R6 – 9:30pm – SHRC Facebook Abbey & Abby Pace – 1690m 

8 – Uncle Trev

10 – Chainsmoke

9 – Postit Lafite

4 – Onyx

Strategy:

Uncle Trev has returned in solid form this preparation, placing in both runs including a narrow defeat last time. His experience and ringcraft give him a genuine edge over this opposition, and with even luck from the back row he’ll be hard to hold out.

BACK: 8 Uncle Trev – 2 Units (win)

 

R7 – 10:03pm – Munro & Associates Conveyancing Pace – 2190m 

5 – Big Sledge Hammer

6 – Therockgod

9 – Captain Jazz

8 – Animado

Strategy:

Big Sledge Hammer is ready to peak now fourth-up, dropping back into a winnable class. He possesses good early gate speed, races well at Shepparton, and the booking of Chris Alford adds further confidence.

BACK: 5 Big Sledge Hammer – 2 Units (win)

 

R8 – 10:31pm – Echuca Race Next Tuesday Trot – 2190m 

7 – Shes Sky High

5 – Abbie

1 – Aldebaran Axl

6 – Franco Americano

Strategy:

Trainer Tyrone Abela dominates this race with six runners engaged, but Shes Sky High looks his standout. Chasing her fourth straight win, she faces a tricky draw but brings strong momentum and proven closing speed. If the map works in her favour, she’s the one to beat.

BACK: 7 Shes Sky High –3 Units (win)

 

QUADDIE (Races 5-8)
