Melton Race 6 - Lifestyle Communities Pace

CAPTAIN MAASTRICHT (8) made it two wins in a row when spanking his rivals by more than 20m at this circuit last start, working forward from this row to find the front before drawing away. Freshened since but draws for a trail. Big chance. TWISTING BY (2) was beaten as a hot favourite when back from a let-up last start but was held up so it may pay to be forgiving. Won a Vicbred Super Series consolation two back so is worth another chance. SEVE (6) drew on the back row and did some work before finishing midfield when resuming. Usually performs well second-up and is rarely out of the money at this distance. PABLO ROCKS (4) was a winner at this circuit three back and did a good job to come from the back row and place last time at Kilmore. Contender. LUVA SCRAP (1) draws the inside and hasn't been far away since coming from a wide barrier to score three back at Ballarat.
