RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: ROYAL APPOINTMENT (1) broke through for a deserved victory at Mildura last week when doing work from the chair through the last lap and heads back to Melton where he’s landed a lovely gate under random barrier draw conditions. He’s been ready to claim one of these 0W/15.0K stake races for some time and I think he gets a great chance following two runner-up placings from this draw in similar races of late. MAAS BETTING AGAIN (3) looks the likely leader and won three races in succession from the front before things didn’t work out last weekend, LOWRIDER (6) won well from the top first-up in much easier grade on July 24 but will need to be good if he doesn’t find the fence, while DANCE AFFAIR (8) ran a good third from three fence last week behind I Am The Storm and might land the same spot here. BACK: ROYAL APPOINTMENT (1) – 2 units (each-way)
