Melton Race 7 - Benstud Standardbreds Youthful Stakes (2Yo Colts & Geldings)

FAIRPLAY (1) worked hard from a back row draw in the Breeders Crown Final last start but came from a wider draw than this to win a heat of that series when fresh here two back. The ace draw gives him every chance to show what he can do. HESITATE (8) got it wrong and blew his chance when favourite in the Breeders Crown Final but has trialled well since and won his previous two here, one at Listed level when off this row. Draws to trail the top pick so looks a big danger if on his game. OKANUI BEACH (6) comes off back-to-back wins in Tasmania, last time cruising home in the Dandy Patch Final. Progressive so could measure up. Something for the Multiples: DOUGS TRIBE (4)

Failed to impress last start; 9th (Sr5) over 2240m at this track, beaten 35 m by Mac Bon (2:38.30) in 2yo G2 No NR CG on November 16 at $4.60. Showed ability the outing before when he posted a big 5 m win when quickly away, (Fr5) at this track (2:41.30) beating Crocodile Socks in 2yo No NR CG on November 8 at $2.20 at the bell was leading 0.97. Looks tough to stop from this draw.

Resumes today. At the latest first-up run 3rd (Fr6) over 1650m after showing early pace at Bendigo, beaten 6 m by Ideal Moth (1:59.60) in 2yo MAIDEN on August 7 at $7. Has only trialled once and might need this pipe-opener.
