Melton Race 9 - Centre State Printing Pace

PICKLE IT (1) is working up to a win having led from this barrier last week before boxing on for second at Geelong. Should push forward again and could be hard to catch. OUR TRUE COLOURS (10) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when third at Bendigo. Came from this barrier when beaten a head at Kilmore four back. Primary contender. MUSELET (2) broke last time but gets his best barrier since he won from this draw at Bendigo earlier in the campaign. BEST BACK BRUCE (11) had no clear run last start so is worth another chance having come from this row to win two back at Cranbourne.

Failed to impress last start; 10th (Sr1) over 2180m at Kilmore, beaten 35 m by Foxyontherun (2:41.40) in NR 45 to 50 on March 27 at $9. Showed ability the run before when she came from midfield and won by 7 m as favourite (Sr1) at Bendigo (2:39.70) beating Shezabluechip in NR 37 to 42 on March 19 at $3.30 at the bell was 5th-7.6m 2WWC. Capable of more than she has shown recently. In the mix if on-song.

Two back was well beaten into fourth after showing early speed, behind Odin at this track over 1720m in a NR up to 55 on March 14 at $31. Then a handy effort when beaten by 8 m finishing third behind Harley Blue at Bendigo over 1650m in a NR up to 49 M on March 26 at $8. Can be right in the thick of things.

Failed to impress last start; 8th (Fr6) over 1609m after racing wide at Geelong beaten 6 m by Lady Salina (1:57.20) in NR 43 to 49 on March 28 at $4.60. Showed ability the run before when he won by 8 m (Sr2) at Cranbourne (2:35.30) beating Dancingonstarlight in NR up to 49 on March 23 at $3.40 at the bell was 5th-11.1m on the pegs. Expected to go well.
