Melton Race 4 - Aldebaran Park Tatlow Stakes (2Yo Trotters)

RAINBOW JESTER (1) resumes having ended last campaign with a hat-trick of wins at Menangle, the last of them by a big margin in the G2 2YO NSW Trot Final. Spanked his rivals in the Nutrien Classic the only time he raced here. Readied with two trial wins and gets every chance from the inside draw. GATESYS GEM (3) has won three of four starts this time in, the only miss coming when fourth in the G1 Vicbred 2F Final two back. Got back on track when cruising home by 11m here last time. Threat from the good draw. COMMODUS (8) comes off a Group 1 win in the Vicbred 2CG Final when overcoming a wide draw. Freshened since and has been kept up to the mark with two trial wins. VYTIS (5) chased COMMODUS home in the Vicbred final last start, adding to a string of seconds. Go well.

Solid run when beaten by 2 m finishing second after showing early speed, behind Commodus at Maryborough over 2190m in a 2yo No NR CG on September 4 at $2.25. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.75 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Commodus at this track over 2240m in a 2yo G1 No NR CG on 1September 4 at $2.50. One of the likely contenders.

Returns from the paddock. His previous first-up run was successful when he posted a big 5 m win as favourite (Fr1) at Bendigo (2:54.10) beating Kyvalley Jagger in 2yo CG on April 10 at $2.20. Prefer others.

Didn't do much last start, 7th (Fr6) over 1720m at this track well beaten by Gatesys Gem (2:05.60) in 2yo No NR on September 26 at $14. Before that 5th (Sr5) over 2240m at this track beaten 30 m by Commodus (2:46.30) in 2yo G1 No NR CG on September 14 at $23. This looks far too tough.
