Tim O’Connor has done the form for tonight’s meeting at Melton.
R1 – 6.04pm – GARRARDS HORSE & HOUND PACE – 1720m
9 – Stormryder
2 – Nakula
4 – Layden
8 – Hes Charlies Angel

Stormryder looks the class here and returns from a tough run in a hectic Hamilton Cup where he was a short favourite. Form before is very strong.
BACK: 9 Stormryder – 2.5 units (win)
R2 – 6.30pm – NEVELE R STUD TROT – 1720m
3 – Bitta Irish Luck
4 – Picket Wire
8 – Lair Of The Eagle
2 – Shaq The Anvil
Leaning to Bitta Irish Luck, who got home fast for second to Im Bobby two back and was okay at Shepparton last time in a dash home. I also fancy Picket Wire, who has good form around Aldebaran Brooke last week at Ballarat and Illawong Larajay four back. Backing both to win.
BACK: 3 Bitta Irish Luck and 4 Picket Wire – 1 unit on each (win)
R3 – 7.02pm – VHRC CADUCEUS 3YO CLASSIC – 1720m
6 – Always Hot
5 – Forty Love
1 – Galaxy Lass
2 – Soho The Real Deal
R4 – 7.35pm – HERTZ MELTON CASEY CLASSIC – 2240m
3 – Leap To Fame
2 – Young Bluey
11 – Republican Party
6 – Tact Mcleod
Leap To Fame looks a moral here and should find the front under his own steam. Young Bluey should trail him, and with no pressure in the race, he can dash home hard for a place. He’s very fast.
BACK: 2 Young Bluey – 2.5 units (place)
R5 – 8.05pm – WOODLANDS STUD V L DULLARD TROTTERS CUP (GROUP 3) – 2240m
13 – Keayang Chucky
12 – Queen Elida
11 – Mufasa Metro
8 – Lovemeto
R6 – 8.38pm – ALDEBARAN PARK TROT – 2240m
2 – Watts Up Partytime
4 – Aldebaran Acrux
8 – Aldebaran Miley
9 – Hephaestus Phoenix
R7 – 9.07pm – BERALDO COFFEE PACE – 1720m
3 – Major Assassin
6 – The Narcissist
2 – Kia Ora Beauty
1 – Ultimate Jou
I’m a huge fan of Metro Assassin. He has done super things in his first few starts and his win last time was incredible at Hamilton. He got home in a last half of 53.84 and beat Soho Americano, who has won well since. He could be anything.
BACK: 3 Major Assassin – 2 units (win)
R8 – 9.35pm – LOGICAL STAFFING SOLUTIONS MARES FREE FOR ALL – 2240m
6 – Sweetnikkilou
7 – Sweet Bella
8 – Sew What
4 – Heavenly Gipsy
Sweetnikkilou charged home from three pegs past Sew What and just missed Sweet Bella at Melton in November. It’s a great form race to look at given all three clash here. She has won twice since and has the barrier advantage over those two rivals tonight.
BACK: 6 Sweetnikkilou – 1 units (win)
QUADDIE ($70,000 jackpot and $300,000 projected pool)
8, 11, 12, 13
2, 3, 4, 8, 9
3, 6
6, 7
