Melton Race 4 - Renown Silverware Pace
G B BRAVE (7) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when coming from the second line for third at Shepparton. Tactics will be crucial from this wide draw but he is good enough to put himself in the winners' stall. CAPITALISM (1) drew much wider and raced wide in the latter stages when debuting with a fifth at Maryborough. Much better served by this barrier and is open to natural improvement. SHOTINTHEDARK (8) draws for a trail and is on the radar off a Bendigo win two back. ROLL ON APOLLO (5) is capable of a better showing.

Three-year-old colt facing the starter for the second time. At debut was driven from back in the field when 5th (Fr6) over 2190m at Maryborough was 9th-16.8m 2WWC at the bell, beaten 6 m by Parisian Art (2:43.90) in 2yo MAIDEN on December 23 at $6.50. Improver from this draw.

Solid run when beaten by 2 m finishing fourth after a quick start, behind Momentum Shift at Shepparton over 1690m in a 0-1 WIN on December 17 at $3. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind Flip A Coin at Shepparton over 2190m in a 0-1 WIN on December 24 at $4. Looks hard to beat.
