Melton Race 1 - Irt Vicbred Voucher Mares Pace

MY BETTOR HALF (3) had to work but dug deep to win in Adelaide last start and was terrific when she covered ground from a wider barrier but fought well to place in the G1 Vicbred Super Series 2F Final here prior. Has had eight weeks off but hails from a top yard and draws well. CHIRRIPO (4) won for the second time in her last three starts when getting home narrowly at Shepparton last time out. Can make an impact again. OUR ROKU (2) has been racing consistently, adding to a string of top-four finishes when fourth from this barrier last start. Came from wider to win here prior. Draws to play a role. SCHEMING (6) could be working her way back into form having produced after a better effort for fourth at Kilmore last start.
