OVERVIEW: WHATS THE TEA (7) was a good winner from the chair at Maryborough on Monday and I fancy he can repeat the result here at Melton. He was held up back in the field and charged through the line impressively in his two starts before that victory, and he’s certainly going well enough to overcome the wide gate. JESSICAS STORY (2) is a consistent type who should be able to cross to the pegs and run a nice race, MACHO MAORI (3) looped the field to win at Bendigo in early March and was then caught parked before dropping out last time, while ATEGO DAWN (5) prevailed two runs back when beating home the on-top selection, but this draw is sticky.

OVERVIEW: WHATS THE TEA (7) was a good winner from the chair at Maryborough on Monday and I fancy he can repeat the result here at Melton. He was held up back in the field and charged through the line impressively in his two starts before that victory, and he’s certainly going well enough to overcome the wide gate. JESSICAS STORY (2) is a consistent type who should be able to cross to the pegs and run a nice race, MACHO MAORI (3) looped the field to win at Bendigo in early March and was then caught parked before dropping out last time, while ATEGO DAWN (5) prevailed two runs back when beating home the on-top selection, but this draw is sticky.
