Ryan Phelan has outlined his selections and suggested game plan for tonight's 7-race card at Shepparton.

R1 – 5:55pm – Shane Sanderson Pace - 2190m

4 – Wind Sock

10 – Can Feel The Fury

6 – Major Bert

8 – High Flux

Good contest to start the night. Whilst you can make a case for half the field, I have to be with Wind Sock despite the draw being a little awkward. He’s a consistent customer and his run here last week was superb with strong closing sectionals.

BACK: 4 Wind Sock – 1 Units (win)

R2 – 6:33pm – Lee Brennan Pace – 1690m 

1 – Eye See Philtra

6 – Racing Writer

3 - Notsokool

2 – Good Tobe Locksley

Well look who I’m tipping again, my old mate Eye See Philtra! I was with him from barrier 10 and 7 and had no luck in those two runs - so I must be with him from the ace. This is a stronger field but if he can hold the lead, he’s the one to beat.

BACK: 1 Eye See Philtra – 2 Units (win)

R3 – 7:00pm – Hunter Rural Maiden Trot – 2190m 

7 – Sky Lindy

11 – Aldebaran Susanne

2 – Oprah Double You

9 – Glengarry Red

Sky Lindy went in the black book with a tough second at her last start, when narrowly defeated after sitting parked, beating the rest by a space. There’s no notable front runners here, so if she can roll to the top, she will be mighty hard to beat third up and fitter.

BACK: 7 Sky Lindy – 1 Units (win)

R4 – 7:34pm – Paul Graydon Trot – 2190m 

8 – Picket Wire

4 – Destrier

3 – Cabin Crew

1 – Zingara Lass

Picket Wire comes out of the Vicbred Super Series when 3rd in her heat, before dropping out in a strong final. This is a huge drop in class and despite the awkward draw, you get the services of James Herbertson.

BACK: 8 Picket Wire – 2 Units (win)

R5 – 8:08pm – Alabar Pace – 2190m 

6 – Pete Mitchell

7 – Better Saint

2 – Mynameisruby

5 – Major Suspect

We were with Pete Mitchell last week and on face value he was disappointing despite working early in the race. This race is looks easier on paper and the front row draw also works in his favour with the potential to be waved onto the lead over the middle distance.

BACK: 6 Pete Mitchell – 2 Units (win)

R6 – 8:42pm – Mick Lombardo Pace – 2190m 

6 – Shallow Beach

8 – My Rock Moves

3 – Bronski Moment 

4 – Playnice

Looks to be two winning hopes in Shallow Beach and My Rock Moves. Driver Ian McMahon here is directing me in the favour of Shallow Beach, as the pair get on well and I expect an aggressive drive to look for the lead and be in front of his main rival.

BACK: 6 Shallow Beach – 2 Units (win)

R7 – 9:16pm – Neatline Homes Pace – 2190m 

7 – Self Exclusion

9 – Northern Terror

1 – Muriel

3 – Pinnacle Hope
