SELECTIONS: WORTH WAITING (2), DICHOTOMY (9), EZRA KAI (13), MEADOW VALLEY STAR (4)
OVERVIEW: WORTH WAITING (2) settled in the second half of the field and finished off strongly when a game second behind Promise Dream at Melton last outing. She led throughout at her previous Melton victory and should prove hard to beat from her good draw. DICHOTOMY (9) is resuming since a strong Melton victory back in June. She won three of her last four starts at the end of her preparation and will take beating if she is somewhere near her peak form. EZRA KAI (13) is resuming since June but he is a quality 3yo trotter and has performed nicely at the trials with a win and a third at Shepparton recently. He is poorly drawn but has too much ability to dismiss. MEADOW VALLEY STAR (4) did extremely well when a game second behind Hoppy at Bendigo last outing and is worth an investment.
EARLY SPEED: 2 (likely leader), 4,5,7
