Just nine points separate fourth from seventh following Tuesday’s action, meaning the race for a prized finals spot has blown wide open approaching the halfway mark of the Edna Harling Shield.
Reigning premier Tallygaroopna continued its spiral down the ladder, with a loss to Shepparton Park consigning the Redlegs to a slightly concerning sixth place.
Park netted a 14-63 to 2-49 result on the road, hitting its straps in two of the three rinks as Noel Halden and Paul Warren skipped the visitors to victories over David Daws and Mick Hanna.
Though Mark Ryan’s four bested Kate Bush’s quartet 23-19 in the third set of ends, Park eventually skirted away to a 13-shot victory and now perches 10 points off pace setter Shepparton Golf.
The Golfers will be hard to catch, going off Tuesday’s performance as a yardstick.
Hosting Tatura-Hill Top, Golf crafted a consummate victory against the Bulldogs to keep the unblemished record intact, taking the spoils 14-67 to 2-43.
Elsewhere, Euroa remains hot on Park’s heels following a narrow win over Seymour VRI.
Euroa overturned a 13-shot deficit in the first rink to scrape a three-shot triumph as Shane Holmes and co stood tall in the 14-54 to 2-51 result.
Finally, Seymour vaults into fourth spot by a sole point after downing East Shepparton convincingly, emerging 14-61 to 2-43 winners at home.
