Prominent owners Jamie Cockshutt and Barry Cooper look to have another nice pacer in Franco Sheffield who claimed the C4 to C5 at Ubet Park in Hobart on Sunday Night.
Cockshutt is the Tasracing form analyst he also is the driving force behind the Halwes Medal and the BOTRA Medal young achievers in Tasmania.
Bred in New Zealand the five year old son of Live Or Die showed good gate speed tofind the front and gave nothing else a chance winning by 19 metres from Punt Road Disco with Sky Tower finishing third.
Franco Sheffield was formally trained by Juanita McKenzie but has been in Marc Butlers care for nearly six months.
Driver Ricky Duggan believes there are more wins installed for Franco Sheffield given the strength of his win on Sunday.
Other winners on the program were:
I AM CAMELOTBy Safari
LICINIA- By Changeover
THE BETTORMACK- Bettors Delight
ANINCHOFHISLIFE- Red River Hanover
LU WAY LORD- It Is I
BILLY KHAN- River Khan

It was a good night for Nevele R stallions with Changeover and Live Or Die both siring winners.
