Melton Race 7 - Aldebaran Park Need For Speed Prince (Heat)

Boom colt DEREK THE JET (5) stretched his unbeaten run to seven when he drew wide but worked forward to lead before winning the Group 1 Vicbred Super Series 3CG Final here last start. Draws one spot lower and looks a class above his rivals. REMUS PHOENIX (2) returned to the winners' list with a 5m victory from a wider barrier here last week and he came from the back row when fourth to DEREK THE JET in the G3 Holmfield three back. He should go well from this favourable barrier. THUNDA STRUCK (1) had a tough draw when midfield in the Vicbred final and was good when placed in a heat two back. Can be competitive from the ace draw. KYVALLEY MICHAEL (3) returns from Sydney where he scored two back at Menangle before breaking last time. Draws well so can feature with manners.
