OVERVIEW: RUFF NUT (11) was driven confidently to move up without cover and produced a strong performance to score in a mile rate of 1.55.7 at Melton last outing. He is a handy 3yo pacer and should prove hard to beat again. ZARA TINDALL NZ (13) is a former Western Australian mare, which finished off fast for a game second at a Melton trial effort last week and must be respected. ROCKABILLY RINGO (6) was supported at longer odds and finished off well for third behind RUFF NUT (11) last week. He possesses early speed and pushed forward to find the lead when he scored at Hamilton in July and he should give another forward showing under these conditions. LOU WILL (8) finished off solidly to score at Wagga last week. He wasn’t beaten by far at his Melton performances prior and he should be finishing off well. EARLY SPEED: 6 (possible leader), 5,7 RATINGS: 11/ 13/ 6,8/ 4/ 7,10/ 9

OVERVIEW: RUFF NUT (11) was driven confidently to move up without cover and produced a strong performance to score in a mile rate of 1.55.7 at Melton last outing. He is a handy 3yo pacer and should prove hard to beat again. ZARA TINDALL NZ (13) is a former Western Australian mare, which finished off fast for a game second at a Melton trial effort last week and must be respected. ROCKABILLY RINGO (6) was supported at longer odds and finished off well for third behind RUFF NUT (11) last week. He possesses early speed and pushed forward to find the lead when he scored at Hamilton in July and he should give another forward showing under these conditions. LOU WILL (8) finished off solidly to score at Wagga last week. He wasn’t beaten by far at his Melton performances prior and he should be finishing off well. EARLY SPEED: 6 (possible leader), 5,7 RATINGS: 11/ 13/ 6,8/ 4/ 7,10/ 9

Race comment
OVERVIEW: RUFF NUT (11) was driven confidently to move up without cover and produced a strong performance to score in a mile rate of 1.55.7 at Melton last outing. He is a handy 3yo pacer and should prove hard to beat again. ZARA TINDALL NZ (13) is a former Western Australian mare, which finished off fast for a game second at a Melton trial effort last week and must be respected. ROCKABILLY RINGO (6) was supported at longer odds and finished off well for third behind RUFF NUT (11) last week. He possesses early speed and pushed forward to find the lead when he scored at Hamilton in July and he should give another forward showing under these conditions. LOU WILL (8) finished off solidly to score at Wagga last week. He wasn’t beaten by far at his Melton performances prior and he should be finishing off well. EARLY SPEED: 6 (possible leader), 5,7 RATINGS: 11/ 13/ 6,8/ 4/ 7,10/ 9

Race comment
OVERVIEW: RUFF NUT (11) was driven confidently to move up without cover and produced a strong performance to score in a mile rate of 1.55.7 at Melton last outing. He is a handy 3yo pacer and should prove hard to beat again. ZARA TINDALL NZ (13) is a former Western Australian mare, which finished off fast for a game second at a Melton trial effort last week and must be respected. ROCKABILLY RINGO (6) was supported at longer odds and finished off well for third behind RUFF NUT (11) last week. He possesses early speed and pushed forward to find the lead when he scored at Hamilton in July and he should give another forward showing under these conditions. LOU WILL (8) finished off solidly to score at Wagga last week. He wasn’t beaten by far at his Melton performances prior and he should be finishing off well. EARLY SPEED: 6 (possible leader), 5,7 RATINGS: 11/ 13/ 6,8/ 4/ 7,10/ 9
