Tim O'Connor has done the form for the Friday night meeting at Melton Entertainment Park.
R1 – 5.46pm – AUSTRALIAN PACING GOLD PACE (1ST HEAT) – 1720m
1 – Standandeliver
11 – Asmileandawinx
8 – Sporty Philtra
4 – Whiskeydrinkingbill
Was shocked Standandeliver went around huge odds when third last Friday at Geelong after showing some really solid form. Draws well here and should get a nice run in a race lacking any rivals in dominant form. Place heavy each-way.
BACK: 1 – Standandeliver 1 unit (win)/2 units (place)
R2 – 6.21pm – HYLAND RACING COLOURS PACE – 1720m
9 – Chasing The Wind
1 – The Villain
11 – Best Back Bruce
5 – Four Lonely Nights
Chasing The Wind was ultra-short when beaten as favourite in a strange race at Geelong last Friday, where the winner sat three deep for basically the entirety to score. Willing to forgive the run and back this guy based off his strong prior form.
BACK: 9 Chasing The Wind – 2 units (win)
R3 – 6.52pm – MIMOSA HOMES PACE – 1720m
4 – Im The Wild One
9 – Home And Dry
11 – Sir Nippa
7 – Ona Merry Dance
R4 – 7.27pm – 2CONSTRUCT TROT – 1720m
7 – Imperial Command
8 – Ultimate Tess
10 – The Sky Is The Limit
1 – Trouville Sur Mer
R5 – 8.04pm – SWIFT SIGNS PACE – 1720m
10 – Go Miki
9 – Gunforhire
7 – Tara Victory
6 – Sometuffluv
R6 – 8.40pm – WASTE SENSE PACE – 1720m
4 – Di Angelo
13 – Blue Ocean
11 – Ohhemmjay Cresco
12 – Micton Mouse
Thought Di Angelo’s last couple of runs had been full of merit and he gets a front row draw in a race where most of the key chances are off the back. Low confidence, but worth a small play.
BACK: 4 Di Angelo – 1 unit (win)
R7 – 9.15pm – NEED FOR SPEED NOMS ON HARNESSWEB TROT – 1720m
8 – Spirited Lass
5 – Allwatfunjingles
6 – Atego Dawn
4 – Christmas Babe
Spirited Lass produced a super effort two starts ago at Melton to flash late and run second to the unbeaten Ijustcalledtosay. She then made a mistake in the breeze last weekend at Cranbourne. I think a faultless display tonight can see her overcome a sticky gate to win.
BACK: 8 Spirited Lass – 2 units (win)
R8 – 9.50pm – PRYDES EASIFEED TROT – 1720m
5 – Azalea May
8 – Faith Full
9 – Rakero Warrior
7 – Magic Law
R9 – 10.25pm – LIFESTYLE COMMUNITIES WOODLEA 2YO TROT – 1720m
6 – Truscotts Elegance
4 – Mystical Truscott
7 – Elle Perfecto
5 – Northern Truscott
Thought Truscotts Elegance would lead this race, and if she produced something like she did last weekend at Melton when only beaten by the very handy Keayang Bazlenka, then it might be good enough to land a second career victory.
BACK: 6 Truscotts Elegance – 2 units (win)
