RACE COMMENT
OVERVIEW: LENARD ESS (9) is a real stable favourite of trainer Jess Tubbs and he landed a 19th career win at Melton last Friday when driven perfectly by James Herbertson. He led, handed up and then sprint-landed to a powerful victory as a short-priced favourite. He had gate one there, and while he won’t find the fence this time, he looks good enough to go close in what shapes as a very similar event. ALLHEARTNOHEIGHT (3) is flying for trainer Brett Cole and came from off speed to land his second-straight victory in slightly easier grade last Friday. He’s stepping up a shade in class here, but must be regarded as a winning chance based on his current form. Stablemate GOODTIME MAE (2) got home well from back in the field from a horror draw to finish fifth in the same race and draws to settle much closer this time, while WICHITA KANSAS (5) was a winner two starts back here at Melton and ran soundly for fourth behind LENARD ESS (9) last time. He’s some chance along with FREAK OUT (7) and WOODLEA DIEGO (4), who would need luck but are capable. BACK: LENARD ESS (9) – 1 unit (win)
