Melton Race 9

Forty Winks Melton 2yo Mdn Pace

Stake: $7,200

KINGS GALLERY (6) is back from a break of ten weeks and looks to be right up to the mark following a recent trial win. Expecting a bright start to the campaign. KELROSE CULLEN (3) is a two-year-old gelding by Soho Tribeca from Guptas Cullen on debut. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Trial winner who looks above average. Has the right credentials to play a major role. MILEY KAY (7) is a two-year-old filly from the Adam Kelly stable on debut. Was not far away in a recent trial. Sure to prove very hard to beat. LADY FLASHEART (2) lines up for the first time. By Poster Boy and hails from the R Cashman stable. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Was not far away in a recent trial. Has the right credentials to play a major role.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 7th (Fr4) over 1710m at Ballarat, beaten 30 m by Comeandsee (2:01.90) in 2yo on June 11 at $51. At the run before was well beaten after breaking at this track on May 15. Draws the pegs so expect a better effort.
