Ross Payne expects to spend plenty of time at the front of affairs at Mildura, giving punters some valuable insights in tonight's edition of Inside Word.

The reinsman for Vince Vallelonga's four runners is confident at least three can make a forward running, including 55-start maiden Melinka, who debuts for his new stable.

Payne was also particularly confident about Fire Safe in the third, which is listed as a $5.50 chance with TAB.com.au, and rated Torrid Saint his best in the last leg of the quaddie.
