Melton Race 4 - Mimosa Homes Trot
SUSAN IS HER NAME (10) is a talented mare who was last seen when placed in the G1 Vicbred Super Series 4M Final last September. Won her other two starts of this campaign and she is three from four when fresh. A trial win will have her ready to go. KEAYANG LAVITA (2) is a progressive mare who is really delivering now, scoring a fourth win in a row when coming from wider to get home at Geelong last week. Won the only time she raced here. Big chance. MEGA SPUR (5) has won third-up before so could be ready to peak. Something for the Multiples: CALL ME JACK (1)

Failed to impress last start; 11th (Sr1) over 2240m at this track, beaten 55 m by Mitchell Wrap (2:48.60) in NR 60 to 69 on March 15 at $7. Showed ability the run before when he won by 17 m as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr5) at this track (2:03.10) beating Avant Guard in 0W/15 0K stake on February 22 at $3.20 at the bell was leading 0.9m on the pegs. Capable of more than he has shown recently. Consider.
