R1 – 6.22pm – BENSTUD STANDARDBREDS PACE – 1720m
9 – Vee Em Gee Macray
10 – Wattlebank Arnie
4 – Mona Mia
1 – Seve
Playing a couple at odds here in the opener at Melton. Vee Em Gee Macray has been running well from back in the field in recent times and looks overs, while Wattlebank Arnie also brings a class factor to the race.
BACK: 9 Vee Em Gee Macray and 10 Wattlebank Arnie – 0.5 unit (win)
R2 – 6.53pm – NUTRIEN EQUINE PACE – 1720m
3 – Shonny Lou
10 – She Really Matters
5 – Sports Wrack
2 – Auckland Red
R3 – 7.28pm – WASTE SENSE TROT – 1720m
5 – Coconut Mickey
3 – Tunbridge
7 – Watts Up Raptor
11 – Kota Bharu
Coconut Mickey has been running some great races of late and really looks ready to find the winner’s circle again.
BACK: 5 Coconut Mickey – 1 unit (win)
R4 – 7.58pm – PRYDE'S EASIFEED PACE – 1720m
1 – Illawong Phoenix
2 – Tinsel Tiara
3 – Alcatraz Girl
4 – Icanmotor
Worried about being buried back along the pegs here with Illawong Phoenix, but if he can settle a little handy, he should be able to give this race a shake. His effort when second to Celestial Zodiac two back is good enough to take this and that horse has won again since.
BACK: 1 Illawong Phoenix – 0.5 unit (win)/1.5 units (place)
R5 – 8.34pm – CENTRE STATE PRINTING PACE – 1720m
1 – Alfredjohncrusader
8 – Writteninthesky
9 – Fulloffight
5 – My Atlantis
Alfredjohncrusader clearly the one to beat here, but Fulloffight has gone super his last couple. Made up good ground after a bad start two back to be beaten just 4.5m and was huge from the chair last time at Bendigo.
BACK: 9 Fulloffight 0.5 unit (win)/1.5 units (place)
R6 – 9.09pm – CATANACH'S JEWELLERS PACE – 1720m
9 – Ata Rangi
1 – Calypso Mistress
5 – Capitalism
6 – Morvah
Ata Rangi has been running great races in good company and good time. This looks much easier than his recent outings. Keen.
BACK: 9 Ata Rangi – 2 units (win)
R7 – 9.44pm – HIP POCKET WORKWEAR CASTLEMAINE PACE – 1720m
6 – Rocco Americano
5 – Tough Shaz
1 – Popcornfriday
7 – Arnies Army
Rocco Americano turned in a top performance last weekend at Shepparton when he sat parked and boxed on bravely to be beaten 7.4m in good time behind Kia Ora Beauty. He was the first horse home off the pegs and while Tough Shaz looks hard to beat here, he’s worth an each-way play.
BACK: 5 Rocco Americano – 0.5 unit (win)/1.5 unit (place)
QUADDIE
1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 11
