COUNTRY RACING ITS GOT IT ALL TROPHY
SHOCKLETZ (7) clearly on top. She dashed well first up at Bendigo before getting shuffled back at Sandown Hillside and making good ground to just miss the minor placings, beaten 1.4 lengths. She's bred to stay and everything she's done to date suggests she'll improve sharply out to 2000m. Huge chance. I ONLY WISH (5) sets a good benchmark, racing consistently in some good races. She's tried hard behind two progressive fillies in Madiyya & Mary Eliza her past couple and that form will hold up well. STYLISH SECRET (1) is going well and will be rock hard fit with a pair of 2000m runs under his belt. Drawn wide but if the pace is on he'll be hard to hold out. NEPTUNITE (11) can measure up off a dominant five length maiden win at Mornington last time out. Only his third start there, he's clearly got staying potential. KISS MY ROCK (10) is going well and an each way chance.

Third-up today. Resuming 2nd of 13 at Warrnambool 3yo Mdn-Sw on April 30 over 1700m, on a slow track; 0.5 len behind Factcheck with 56kg at $7.50. Last start favourite; tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; scored a big 4 len win at Horsham Mdn-Sw May 19 over 2100m defeating Triora carrying 57.5kg at $1.28. Has upside, respect.

On the up, can give a sight.

The race before that 5th of 11 at Ballarat Bm64 on May 11 over 1600m, 1.75 len behind Professor Pickles carrying 57kg at $8. Tough to beat again with the confidence high.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. First-up set the pace for much of the race 3rd of 9 at Pakenham Mdn-Sw on May 8 over 1600m, 4 len behind Dark Simba with 59.5kg at $9.50.

The run before that 4th of 8 at Cranbourne Mdn-Sw on May 2 over 1600m, 5 len behind Savamoon carrying 59.5kg at $13. Tougher here and the ratings indicate he will struggle to feature in the finish.
Most recently won by 1.5 len at Geelong Mdn-Sw May 23 over 2460m defeating Zinovation with 57.5kg at $21. Before that eased back early on 5th of 10 at Kilmore Mdn-Sw on May 5 over 1607m, 6 len behind Kansherun carrying 57.5kg at $101. Much tougher assignment today and looks outclassed.
