Ryan Phelan has done the form for tonight's 8-race program from Shepparton. 

R1 – 5:34pm – J&A Mazzetti Painting Pace - 1690m

11 – Alta Bayamo

4 – Arraps

9 – Conspirator

8 – Muriel

R2 – 6:03pm – Hygain 2yo Maiden Pace – 1690m 

1 – Dusty Philtra

2 – Mister Seaside

9 – Famous Crimes

8 – Ruggards Gee Tee

Dusty Philtra has shown promise in all three career starts, placing each time against city-class opposition. Likely to be crossed early by key rival Mister Seaside, but based on exposed form, he hits the line strongly and looks a genuine threat late.

BACK: 1 Dusty Philtra – 2.5 Units (win)

R3 – 6:29pm – VHRC Homestead Farm Trot – 1690m 

10 – Myheartbeatstrue

2 – Magic Law

3 – Starlight Red

9 – Betsy Anne

Myheartbeatstrue resumes as a 3YO after a strong juvenile season competing in the Vicbred series against elite company. Her recent trial was sharp, defeating a subsequent winner, and she now returns with a top trainer-driver combo - confidence is high.

BACK: 10 Myheartbeatstrue – 3.5 Units (win)

R4 – 6:59pm – Neatline Homes Pace – 2190m 

10 – Sharp Interest

1 – Iamahunter

2 – Soho Playgirl

4 – Im In Style

Sharp Interest is third-up and fitter now, she’s attracted strong market support in both runs this prep, suggesting she’s showing plenty at home. Her last start was full of merit after working hard, and the step up in trip now looks a clear advantage.

BACK: 10 Sharp Interest – 1.5 Unit (win)

R5 – 7:33pm – Central Tyre Service Pace – 1690m 

2 – The Answer

5 – Tooram Cee Cee

9 – Day Two

3 – Ideal Moth

The Answer looks well placed here following a strong last start win in good time. She was luckless the start prior as favourite in a strong Melton form race. Has early speed, a leading driver aboard, and the short trip suits - ticks plenty of boxes.

BACK: 2 The Answer – 2.5 Units (win)

R6 – 8:07pm – VHRC Renown Pace – 2190m
