Tim O'Connor has done the form for the Saturday night meeting at Melton Entertainment Park.

R1 – 5.02pm – RANVET PACE – 2240m

10 – Kiss

4 – Draw a dream

11 – First Dance

9 – Le Belle Bijoux

Kiss produced some incredible performances in top end races last season as a three-year-old and looks to be a very smart customer on the rise. She resumes here as a four-year-old and I think class can prevail despite the back row draw.

BACK: 10 Kiss – 2.5 units (win)

R2 – 5.37pm – NATIONAL GUARDIAN SOLUTIONS PACE – 1720m

9 – Young Bluey

4 – Sir Jimmy

7 – Hes From Heaven

10 – Curly James

R3 – 6.12pm – NEED FOR SPEED NOMS ON HARNESSWEB 3YO TROT – 2240m

7 – Mecarno

5 – Karbine

4 – Mystery Fred

2 – No Money No Honey

Basically any horse in this field could win and it wouldn’t surprise, so I’m having a tiny, tiny each-way play on my mate Karbine. He showed so much promise as a two-year-old but did things wrong, then put it together finally first-up as a three-year-old last start and got the cash. I think he’s pretty handy.

BACK: 5 Karbine – 0.5 units (each-way)

R4 – 6.47pm – ENCOMPASSING PACE – 2240m

4 – My Uncle Stan

3 – Chasing Rex

9 – Calexico

1 – Big Bad Ossie

My Uncle Stan was a sectional star last time when he nearly broke 54sec home for the last 800m despite being wide on the track. I’m hoping he lobs handy in the running line tonight and can reel off another big finale.

BACK: 4 My Uncle Stan – 1 unit (win)/2 units (place)

R5 – 7.22pm – LOGICAL STAFFING SOLUTIONS PACE – 2240m

4 – Jilliby Illuminate

8 – A lot Like Louie

2 – New Yorker

3 – Perun

Jilliby Illuminate looked like she was shot out of a cannon when winning last time at Melton and this shapes as another suitable event. She might even be able to work to the front tonight, and from there she’d be close to over the line.

BACK: 4 Jilliby Illuminate – 3.5 units (win)

R6 – 7.49pm – HERTZ MELTON TROT – 1720m

9 – Sebastians Boy

8 – Pinnie

4 – El Resamo

5 – Plymouth Chubb

1 – Ebonys Avenger

R8 – 8.48pm – APG MELBOURNE SALES GRADUATE SERIES (2YO COLTS & GELDINGS) FINAL – 1720m
