Melton R9 IRT AUSTRALIA PACE

Race comment

OVERVIEW: BIGJIMVALENTINE (3) appears to be a chance at odds in the final event. He settled three back on the outside and appeared to be bolting leading up to the home turn before he unfortunately broke stride and lost his chance. He wasn’t asked for an effort in his requalifying trial performance last week and is a possible improver here. SPORT DREAMER (6) led throughout and won easily at Maryborough on February 12 and hasn’t had much luck with the barrier draw since. He is likely to look for a forward position in the early stages and should make his presence felt. PADDINGTON CENTRAL (1) led throughout at a Melton mid-week victory on January 19. He settled midfield on the outside and ran to the line quite well at his latest third so he must be respected. OUR SUMMER WIND (4) raced against handy opposition at Terang last week and is a possible improver. MURANO (8) is awkwardly drawn but is a place hope along with BONAVISTA BOY (10). EARLY SPEED: 6 (possible leader), 1,4,7 RATINGS: 3/ 1,6/ 4/ 8,10/ 9
