Melton Race 4 - Dynamic Print Group Pace
TOMMYS LOOKOUT (8) has been very good from this barrier in his last two outings, missing narrowly when placed two back before scoring by 4.5 metres at Bendigo last week. Drawn to enjoy an economical run and with the sprint lane in play could make it two on the trot. AVEIRO (9) did a good job for fourth in a higher-graded race last start, beaten 4.5 metres at. Draws on the back row but is suited at this level and expected to perform well. ATOMIC GLORY (4) is a chance after a string of sound recent performances, the latest a solid second from this barrier at Bendigo. DOT BALL (7) draws wider but deserves some respect a last-start win by 2.7 metres at Cranbourne.
