SELECTIONS: LITTLE YANKEE (5), STOCKMAN PETER (6), TWEEDLEDEE (1), MAC FLICK (4)
OVERVIEW: Two in-form trotters meet here in LITTLE YANKEE (5) and STOCKMAN PETER (6) for what shapes as a great clash. LITTLE YANKEE (5) has smashed the line his two runs back from a break, with a win at Bendigo on April 18 and third placing to Quirky Character at Melton on May 2 setting him up well. He should be going close. STOCKMAN PETER (6) hails from South Australia and just missed victory in his Melton return last weekend when second to the Group 1 winner I Am Wilma. His two victories back home before that were outstanding and he’s a major winning chance. TWEEDLEDEE (1) put in a good run to finish third to I Am Wilma last weekend (he also raced at Ballarat on Thursday night) and draws the pole, while MAC FLICK (4) is a last-start winner but the times suggest he’d need to improve to beat the top two picks.
BACK: LITTLE YANKEE (5) – 2 units (win)
