Melton Race 6

Hertz Melton Pace

Stake: $11,400

HE'S NO ROMEO (4) has been good so far in Australia, winning in his lone visit to this circuit two back. Since then he stuck on well to place at Bendigo, beaten 4 metres. Race fit and has winning claims. ALWAYS THE SHOWMAN (8) is in fine form having won twice from this row along with a second in his last three outings. Came from this barrier to score at this circuit and distance last week. Could back that up. HUGO ROCKS (2) has had some tough draws of late, including when he won here three back. Should get his chance from this more favourable barrier. WATTLEBANK ARNIE NZ (1) has been racing consistently and gets the inside draw so can be competitive again.

Recent form below what he is capable of. Last start was driven from back in the field when 7th (Fr7) over 2240m at this track was 9th-13.37 at the bell, beaten 13 m by Strapping Red (2:42.50) in NR 67 to 75 on November 29 at $17.
