OVERVIEW: Looking to the Bill Collins Trotters Sprint and Maryborough Trotters Cup form here, with the top four picks all coming through those races in recent weeks. So much depends on manners and who steps to the top, but I’ll lean to LOVEMETO (3). He left the tapes well and led initially in this race back in February last year, then quickly went off stride for no apparent reason. He still did a good job to run third behind Keayang Chucky despite racing roughly late. He’s a very classy type who sat parked and finished second in the Bill Collins, and would be very hard to run down if he worked to the front. HOPPY (4) turned the tables on him with victory in the recent Maryborough Trotters Cup, where he ran past the other top three picks in this race to win in track record time. He’s a real newcomer to the free-for-all ranks, but he’s very progressive. IM BOBBY (6) led and boxed on well for second at Maryborough and can fly the tapes, while IMPERIAL MONARCH (7) and the first-up and lightly-raced CRACKERJACK (11) look the other key hopes in a great edition of the Australasian Trotting Championship.
