Melton R1 ALABAR VICBRED PLATINUM

Race comment

  OVERVIEW: Harness Racing Victoria have a fabulous digital show hosted by a wildly charismatic broadcaster these days called Burning Questions. That name was chosen because most races have at least one critical query which – of answered correctly – represents the chasm between profit and loss. The Burning Question – or questions – in this Metro Pace decider is thus: will LA CAPTAIN (5) cross an incredibly rapid front line, and if yes, will it be a bloodless coup or something far more taxing? Based on his recent form, if LA CAPTAIN (5) burns across to the pegs purely through superior speed, he’ll likely win the race. It’s slightly more likely, however, that the price paid by whoever leads tonight will be significant. Should the early war create multiple casualties, this contest has many potential winners. The best of these is KISSMELVIS (9) who roared home at heat level and only needs a solid speed to claim this race at odds. Peg-line players ALLSHOOKUP (8) and OZZIE PLAYBOY (1) are also in this up to their ears under the right circumstances as is FOOLISH PLEASURE (7) though his draw presents a snag. Finally, it’s time to talk about DRAIN THE SWAMP (3). A pretty dominant heat winner last weekend, he has only won in races where he’s led. If he defies the predicated map and finds the top, he’ll take any amount of catching. If not, his opening quote of $1.80 looks quite ridiculous indeed.   EARLY SPEED: 1,2,3,5 RATINGS: 9/ 6/ 3/ 8/ 1/ 7/ 2/ 11/ 5/ 10
