Melton Race 8 - Benstud Standardbreds Pace

ISOLATION (7) recorded back-to-back wins last month - one of them at this circuit and distance - and was good again when third in a higher-graded race here last week. Draws wider built this is winnable with even luck. SEATHESTARS (4) has been freshened since the Vicbred Super Series where he resumed with a placing in the latest before fading out of the final. Owns a strong record here and has won two of three tries when third-up. He would win this with his best. MY LITTLE BO (2) came from this barrier in her last-start fourth when resuming at this circuit and distance a week ago. Proven second-up so can progress. TOORAM MAGIC (6) must be considered after he came from this barrier and finished runner-up when resuming at Kilmore last week.
