Tim O’Connor has outlined his selections and suggested game plan for tonight’s eight-race card at Melton Entertainment Park.
R1 – 5.31pm – TAB We’re On Free For All – 2240m
9 Catch A Wave
2 The Lost Storm
8 Bulletproof Boy
6 Mach Dan
Catch A Wave makes his return to the races tonight and this looks to set up nicely for the megastar pacer with a small field and likely speed off the front row. I fancy he can sit handy and come with a sweeping run to prevail.
BACK: Catch A Wave – 2 units (win)
R2 – 6.01pm – Alabar Pace – 1720m
11 Alot Like Louie
2 Another Nien
1 Blaster Ranger
9 Pablo Rocks
Think Alot Like Louie might possibly be too classy here, but I’m drawn to the chances of Blaster Ranger who possesses a sharp sprint and should be able to figure late with a cosy trip on the fence. He won from three back the pegs in a race at Shepparton first-up for this stable, so let’s hope for a similar run here.
BACK: Blaster Ranger – 1 unit (win)/4 units (place)
R3 – 6.32pm – Logical Staffing Solutions Trot – 2240m
5 Aldebaran Miley
10 Mercenary
11 Watts Up Partytime
1 El Resamo
R4 – 7.04pm – Lifestyle Communities Trot – 1720m
6 Focus
11 Exalted
7 Rapid Return
2 Im Bobby
Focus has been in super form this preparation, finds another winnable opportunity for Mark Lee and Stacey Towers and has come up good odds. Small play.
BACK: Focus – 1 unit (win)
R5 – 7.40pm – Nevele R Stud Pace – 2240m
4 High Above
7 Clear Left
5 Techys Watching
1 Jaccka Connor
We were on Clear Left last week and he was nailed on the line by stablemate Clymenus, but it was still another great performance from the former Kiwi pacer. High Above goes on top here, however I’m tipping some pressure up front and I’m hoping Clear Left can hit the line hard while running into a place at a nice price.
BACK: Clear Left – 2 units (place)
R6 – 8.12pm – Aldebaran Park Trotters Free For All – 2240m
2 Aldebaran Vera
6 One Over All
7 Aldebaran Zeus
1 Ebonys Avenger
R7 – 8.41pm – Australian Pacing Gold Pace – 2240m
6 Hes From Heaven
8 Earl Of Pembroke
1 Younggiftedandblack
7 Gawn
R8 – 9.12pm – Prydes EasiFeed Pace – 1720m
4 Oliver Dan
5 Le Belle Bijoux
6 Classic Mission
7 Stravinsky
