Melton Race 2 - Apg Vicbred Super Series (3yo Colts & Geldings) Silver Pace
SOHO TRUMP (1) came from wider than this when he faded out of his semi final but had kicked off his campaign with two wins, one at Menangle and the other in the heats of this series. Led in both of those so has the speed to take advantage of the ace draw. Won the final of this series last year and can find some consolation here. Stablemate SOHO PARK AVENUE (9) was held up late last start but had recorded a string of top-two results prior including a Menangle win and a second to SOHO TRUMP when starting from this barrier in the heats. Player with some luck. STAR VISION (6) had a tough draw when midfield to SOHO TRUMP last start. That was his first defeat in four starts and he hails from a leading yard so could bounce back. SEASIDE BOY (4) draws better than when midfield last start and had recorded a string of wins and placings prior including a fighting win from the back row here two back.

Gave plenty of ground last start when well beaten into ninth after a quick start, behind Le Cardinal at this track over 2240m in a 3yo on September 5 at $7.50. Raced better the start before that where he won by 1.75 m as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr4) at Kilmore (2:38.40) beating Soho Park Avenue in 3yo on August 27 at $2.25. Can take full advantage of the ace draw and prove tough to stop.

Failed to impress last start; was driven from back in the field when 5th (Fr6) over 2180m at Kilmore, beaten 13 m by Soho Charmer (2:37.10) in 3yo on August 27 at $8. Showed ability the run before when he came from midfield and won by a nose (Sr2) at this track (2:01.50) beating Midnight Moth in on August 8 at $2.25 at the bell was 2nd-0.28. Nicely drawn and can make an impact.

Last start was well beaten into tenth behind Le Cardinal at this track over 2240m in a 3yo on September 5 at $31. Raced better the start before that with a solid effort when 2nd (Sr2) over 2180m after being wide early at Kilmore beaten 1.75 m by Soho Trump (2:38.40) in 3yo on August 27 at $13. Held up last time and can measure up with even luck.
