OVERVIEW: CAPTAIN BELLASARIO (6) enjoyed the perfect trip but did a good job to run past Sir Jimmy in a sizzling final quarter of 26.9 seconds when he scored at Melton last outing. He raced fiercely in the lead when second behind the smart pacer Rocknroll Hammer prior so he must be considered as a winning chance again. LOUIE LOU I (4) is a very honest pacer and did well to work into third last week in the Melton Plate. He is nicely drawn and looms as one of the leading chances. TIGER BAND WAGON (5) defeated LOUIE LOU I (4) by a narrow margin at Melton prior to being unplaced in the Charlton Cup. He is a versatile pacer and is worth an investment against this class. RAGING WHITEBAIT (3) is stepping up in grade but he has been very impressive since coming from New Zealand having won five of his six starts.

OVERVIEW: CAPTAIN BELLASARIO (6) enjoyed the perfect trip but did a good job to run past Sir Jimmy in a sizzling final quarter of 26.9 seconds when he scored at Melton last outing. He raced fiercely in the lead when second behind the smart pacer Rocknroll Hammer prior so he must be considered as a winning chance again. LOUIE LOU I (4) is a very honest pacer and did well to work into third last week in the Melton Plate. He is nicely drawn and looms as one of the leading chances. TIGER BAND WAGON (5) defeated LOUIE LOU I (4) by a narrow margin at Melton prior to being unplaced in the Charlton Cup. He is a versatile pacer and is worth an investment against this class. RAGING WHITEBAIT (3) is stepping up in grade but he has been very impressive since coming from New Zealand having won five of his six starts. He dashed well clear on the home turn then held on late when he defeated Repelling last week. EARLY SPEED: 3 (possible leader), 2,4,6, RATINGS: 6/ 4,5/ 3/ 2

Race comment
OVERVIEW: CAPTAIN BELLASARIO (6) enjoyed the perfect trip but did a good job to run past Sir Jimmy in a sizzling final quarter of 26.9 seconds when he scored at Melton last outing. He raced fiercely in the lead when second behind the smart pacer Rocknroll Hammer prior so he must be considered as a winning chance again. LOUIE LOU I (4) is a very honest pacer and did well to work into third last week in the Melton Plate. He is nicely drawn and looms as one of the leading chances. TIGER BAND WAGON (5) defeated LOUIE LOU I (4) by a narrow margin at Melton prior to being unplaced in the Charlton Cup. He is a versatile pacer and is worth an investment against this class. RAGING WHITEBAIT (3) is stepping up in grade but he has been very impressive since coming from New Zealand having won five of his six starts. He dashed well clear on the home turn then held on late when he defeated Repelling last week. EARLY SPEED: 3 (possible leader), 2,4,6, RATINGS: 6/ 4,5/ 3/ 2
