Melton Race 3 - Dynamic Print Group Pace

KEAYANG WASABI (7) scored last time out by 2 metres in a break through win this campaign at Terang over 2180m. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. Facing a tougher assignment but he is capable of running another big race. SOHO DARKNSTORMY (6) finished ninth last start at Group Three level in a race won by Hesitate over 1720m at this track, beaten 24 metres. Ideally placed to make amends. BLAKE BOLAC (11) is also high on the list of contenders despite a tough draw. Best form measures up favourably in this line-up so just needs a bit of luck to go his way. LAYDEN (2) has drawn to advantage and should give backers a great sight.

Returns after six months in the paddock. Finished off last preparation when beaten by 5 m finishing fourth behind Cigano at this track over 1720m in a NR 65 to 75 on August 30 at $6. Has to contend with an awkward draw but has the talent to take this out.

Didn't do much last time out, surrendered the lead and finished 7th (Fr6) over 2190m after showing early pace at Maryborough was 3rd-4.2 at the bell, beaten 8 m by New Yorker (2:40.10) in NR 60 to 80 on February 4 at $10. Before that was well back in the run when 7th (Fr5) over 1609m at Geelong, beaten 17 m by Smoken Ace (1:51.20) in NR 76 to 89 on December 12 at $23. Not keen.

Been racing well and showed plenty of improvement following January 21 run. Last start posted a big 3.5 m win (Sr1) at this track (2:45.30) beating Soho Darknstormy in NR up to 80 on January 30 at $9.50 at the bell was 4th-4.47. This race will be harder than that win. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

Six-year-old gelding who has plenty of ability. Unlucky last start 5th (Fr7) over 2190m after showing early pace at Maryborough, at the bell was leading 0.6 beaten 3.5 m by New Yorker (2:40.10) in NR 60 to 80 on February 4 at $1.50. Expect to see the best from him now.
