Melton Race 2 - Swift Signs Nmw Pace

BANKSOFTHEMURRAY (12) has been racing well and looks close to a win following back-to-back seconds. Led and stuck on when beaten 1.8m in the Stawell Cup before working but sticking on well here last time. Tricky draw but can win with even luck. NAKULA (5) is in good form having placed in her two outings here since a resuming win at Kilmore. She'll be at peak fitness now so can make an impact again. LUVA SCRAP (2) made it back-to-back placings when edged out narrowly here last week and has to come into calculations from this draw. POPCORNFRIDAY (3) draws well and is a player again having recorded a win and a nose second from his last two outings here.
