Race comment
OVERVIEW: American novelist Thomas Wolfe once said that you can’t go home again. Tonight, however, we’re doing just that with the first Melton metro meeting in seven weeks, and, strictly between us, nothing has changed with regard to opening events. Let’s be clear here; anything can win this race. For our purposes, however, we want reasonable or perhaps even unreasonable pressure because if the heat is on then MIRAKURU (13) probably salutes car park draw and all. Steve Cleave’s well above average 7YO has struggled to string races together right throughout his career but arrives here third-up off a Herculean last-start effort in a slightly stronger contest than this. Don’t expect to see him driven in his typically brutal fashion from the outside-second-line draw but do expect him to be potentially lethal if the Lead Time and first quarter are staged in genuine fashion. Two of his major threats CELESTIAL GOSSIP (10) and FOOLISH PLEASURE (12) are drawn back there with our top tip though the former horse goes far better in front and the latter needs more fortune than most with his one-run style of racing. Of the front row runners Ben Yole looks to hold the strongest hand. Back in the day ARDEN ROANOKE (6) could explode off the gate and if he crossed these and found the chance to cruise in front he’s a very serious chance as is HAYDEN BROMAC (4) who should settle close enough for his pattern of racing from the tidy gate. EARLY SPEED: 1,2,3,6 + 4? RATINGS: 13/ 6/ 10/ 12/ 4/ 7/ 8/ 5/ 3/ 1/ 2/ 9

Race comment
OVERVIEW: American novelist Thomas Wolfe once said that you can’t go home again. Tonight, however, we’re doing just that with the first Melton metro meeting in seven weeks, and, strictly between us, nothing has changed with regard to opening events. Let’s be clear here; anything can win this race. For our purposes, however, we want reasonable or perhaps even unreasonable pressure because if the heat is on then MIRAKURU (13) probably salutes car park draw and all. Steve Cleave’s well above average 7YO has struggled to string races together right throughout his career but arrives here third-up off a Herculean last-start effort in a slightly stronger contest than this. Don’t expect to see him driven in his typically brutal fashion from the outside-second-line draw but do expect him to be potentially lethal if the Lead Time and first quarter are staged in genuine fashion. Two of his major threats CELESTIAL GOSSIP (10) and FOOLISH PLEASURE (12) are drawn back there with our top tip though the former horse goes far better in front and the latter needs more fortune than most with his one-run style of racing. Of the front row runners Ben Yole looks to hold the strongest hand. Back in the day ARDEN ROANOKE (6) could explode off the gate and if he crossed these and found the chance to cruise in front he’s a very serious chance as is HAYDEN BROMAC (4) who should settle close enough for his pattern of racing from the tidy gate. EARLY SPEED: 1,2,3,6 + 4? RATINGS: 13/ 6/ 10/ 12/ 4/ 7/ 8/ 5/ 3/ 1/ 2/ 9

Race comment
OVERVIEW: American novelist Thomas Wolfe once said that you can’t go home again. Tonight, however, we’re doing just that with the first Melton metro meeting in seven weeks, and, strictly between us, nothing has changed with regard to opening events. Let’s be clear here; anything can win this race. For our purposes, however, we want reasonable or perhaps even unreasonable pressure because if the heat is on then MIRAKURU (13) probably salutes car park draw and all. Steve Cleave’s well above average 7YO has struggled to string races together right throughout his career but arrives here third-up off a Herculean last-start effort in a slightly stronger contest than this. Don’t expect to see him driven in his typically brutal fashion from the outside-second-line draw but do expect him to be potentially lethal if the Lead Time and first quarter are staged in genuine fashion. Two of his major threats CELESTIAL GOSSIP (10) and FOOLISH PLEASURE (12) are drawn back there with our top tip though the former horse goes far better in front and the latter needs more fortune than most with his one-run style of racing. Of the front row runners Ben Yole looks to hold the strongest hand. Back in the day ARDEN ROANOKE (6) could explode off the gate and if he crossed these and found the chance to cruise in front he’s a very serious chance as is HAYDEN BROMAC (4) who should settle close enough for his pattern of racing from the tidy gate.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: American novelist Thomas Wolfe once said that you can’t go home again. Tonight, however, we’re doing just that with the first Melton metro meeting in seven weeks, and, strictly between us, nothing has changed with regard to opening events. Let’s be clear here; anything can win this race. For our purposes, however, we want reasonable or perhaps even unreasonable pressure because if the heat is on then MIRAKURU (13) probably salutes car park draw and all. Steve Cleave’s well above average 7YO has struggled to string races together right throughout his career but arrives here third-up off a Herculean last-start effort in a slightly stronger contest than this. Don’t expect to see him driven in his typically brutal fashion from the outside-second-line draw but do expect him to be potentially lethal if the Lead Time and first quarter are staged in genuine fashion. Two of his major threats CELESTIAL GOSSIP (10) and FOOLISH PLEASURE (12) are drawn back there with our top tip though the former horse goes far better in front and the latter needs more fortune than most with his one-run style of racing. Of the front row runners Ben Yole looks to hold the strongest hand. Back in the day ARDEN ROANOKE (6) could explode off the gate and if he crossed these and found the chance to cruise in front he’s a very serious chance as is HAYDEN BROMAC (4) who should settle close enough for his pattern of racing from the tidy gate. EARLY SPEED: 1,2,3,6 + 4? RATINGS: 13/ 6/ 10/ 12/ 4/ 7/ 8/ 5/ 3/ 1/ 2/ 9

Race comment
OVERVIEW: American novelist Thomas Wolfe once said that you can’t go home again. Tonight, however, we’re doing just that with the first Melton metro meeting in seven weeks, and, strictly between us, nothing has changed with regard to opening events. Let’s be clear here; anything can win this race. For our purposes, however, we want reasonable or perhaps even unreasonable pressure because if the heat is on then MIRAKURU (13) probably salutes car park draw and all. Steve Cleave’s well above average 7YO has struggled to string races together right throughout his career but arrives here third-up off a Herculean last-start effort in a slightly stronger contest than this. Don’t expect to see him driven in his typically brutal fashion from the outside-second-line draw but do expect him to be potentially lethal if the Lead Time and first quarter are staged in genuine fashion. Two of his major threats CELESTIAL GOSSIP (10) and FOOLISH PLEASURE (12) are drawn back there with our top tip though the former horse goes far better in front and the latter needs more fortune than most with his one-run style of racing. Of the front row runners Ben Yole looks to hold the strongest hand. Back in the day ARDEN ROANOKE (6) could explode off the gate and if he crossed these and found the chance to cruise in front he’s a very serious chance as is HAYDEN BROMAC (4) who should settle close enough for his pattern of racing from the tidy gate.
