Race comment
OVERVIEW: THE RACONTEUR (10) settled three back on the markers, worked into the clear on the home turn and charged home to win impressively at Melton on February 04. This race is of similar standard and he is worth thought again. COMMON COURTESY (2) produced a top performance to win in a mile rate of 1.53.0 at Melton two starts ago then didn’t have much luck over the concluding stages when fourth behind Bonnie Belle on February 04. She is perfectly drawn over the sprint distance and looms as one of the leading chances. MONA MIA (11) produced another big performance when second behind Sew What at Melton last outing. She tried to sustain a long run when fourth behind THE RACONTEUR (10) prior and should be competitive again. CAPTAIN WILSON (6) faces a negative swing in the barrier draw but he is a short course specialist and should give another forward showing. GOLFO PARADISO (1) and OZZIE PLAYBOY (8) are both capable of showing up without surprising. EARLY SPEED: 4 (likely leader), 2,6 RATINGS: 10/ 2,11/ 6/ 1,8/ 3

Race comment
OVERVIEW: THE RACONTEUR (10) settled three back on the markers, worked into the clear on the home turn and charged home to win impressively at Melton on February 04. This race is of similar standard and he is worth thought again. COMMON COURTESY (2) produced a top performance to win in a mile rate of 1.53.0 at Melton two starts ago then didn’t have much luck over the concluding stages when fourth behind Bonnie Belle on February 04. She is perfectly drawn over the sprint distance and looms as one of the leading chances. MONA MIA (11) produced another big performance when second behind Sew What at Melton last outing. She tried to sustain a long run when fourth behind THE RACONTEUR (10) prior and should be competitive again. CAPTAIN WILSON (6) faces a negative swing in the barrier draw but he is a short course specialist and should give another forward showing. GOLFO PARADISO (1) and OZZIE PLAYBOY (8) are both capable of showing up without surprising. EARLY SPEED: 4 (likely leader), 2,6 RATINGS: 10/ 2,11/ 6/ 1,8/ 3

Race comment
OVERVIEW: THE RACONTEUR (10) settled three back on the markers, worked into the clear on the home turn and charged home to win impressively at Melton on February 04. This race is of similar standard and he is worth thought again. COMMON COURTESY (2) produced a top performance to win in a mile rate of 1.53.0 at Melton two starts ago then didn’t have much luck over the concluding stages when fourth behind Bonnie Belle on February 04. She is perfectly drawn over the sprint distance and looms as one of the leading chances. MONA MIA (11) produced another big performance when second behind Sew What at Melton last outing. She tried to sustain a long run when fourth behind THE RACONTEUR (10) prior and should be competitive again. CAPTAIN WILSON (6) faces a negative swing in the barrier draw but he is a short course specialist and should give another forward showing. GOLFO PARADISO (1) and OZZIE PLAYBOY (8) are both capable of showing up without surprising. EARLY SPEED: 4 (likely leader), 2,6 RATINGS: 10/ 2,11/ 6/ 1,8/ 3

COMMON COURTESY (2) produced a top performance to win in a mile rate of 1.53.0 at Melton two starts ago then didn’t have much luck over the concluding stages when fourth behind Bonnie Belle on February 04. She is perfectly drawn over the sprint distance and looms as one of the leading chances. MONA MIA (11) produced another big performance when second behind Sew What at Melton last outing. She tried to sustain a long run when fourth behind THE RACONTEUR (10) prior and should be competitive again. CAPTAIN WILSON (6) faces a negative swing in the barrier draw but he is a short course specialist and should give another forward showing. GOLFO PARADISO (1) and OZZIE PLAYBOY (8) are both capable of showing up without surprising. EARLY SPEED: 4 (likely leader), 2,6 RATINGS: 10/ 2,11/ 6/ 1,8/ 3
