Melton Race 7 - Hyland Harness Colours Trot

MOJITO MADNESS (8) continued a strong run of recent form when he worked to find the front before going on to score by 1.5 metres at Ballarat last week. Can settle just behind them and wait on the sprint lane so he is capable of another big performance. AVANT GUARD (6) will find this easier than the last attempt and was solid when placed two back. Owns a decent record at this venue and distance. This looks a suitable assignment. WHOS THE MAN (1) has been a fair way off the winner in recent outings but he has been coming from wider barriers so could be a big improver from the inside draw. HES A HAMMER (5) is working towards a win having come from the back row for second last time.
