Melton Race 7 - Alabar Vicbred Platinum Homegrown Classic

OLLIES THE BOSS (7) placed here on debut then was impressive at his latest appearance at Warragul, scoring comfortably by 12 metres after leading as a hot favourite. Draws wider but has upside. DOUGS TRIBE (8) wasn't disgraced in a decent line-up last start and the prior form was good. Drew on the back row and broke when placed two back and won his previous two. Major player. CONISTON (3) resumes after three-and-a-half months. Showed some promise winning two of four starts at the maiden campaign. Draws well and was readied with two nice trials. SHOTINTHEDARK (2) kicked off the campaign with back-to-back placings before breaking the maiden last start. Nicely drawn so could take the next step.
