Melton Race 2 - Alabar Vicbred Platinum Homegrown Classic
LOOKS PERFECT (5) is a filly by Always B Miki from a Group 2-winning Art Major mare and is on debut for leading trainer Emma Stewart. Has shown ability in placing in both of her trials, the latest a close second at this circuit. Those hitouts will have her ready to kick off with a win. WAZOWSKI (4) switches to a new yard and will be fitter for a resuming fourth at Goulburn. Showed ability in ending her maiden campaign with a Wagga win. Expected to perform well. FLOJOS BEST (6) came from the back row for a Mildura win at her second start. Has trialled since so is open to further improvement. SOHO PLAYGIRL (2) will appreciate the better draw having won from this barrier two back at Cobram.
