Melton Race 5 - Mimosa Homes Pace

HEZA PUNK ROCKER (3) returns after a Tasmania Cup bid where he placed first-up in the heats before a fifth after racing wide in the final. Has never missed a placed when resuming and the last time he raced here he won the G1 Vicbred Super Series 4EG Final. Draws well and looks the class runner. CLEAR LEFT (2) came from a similar barrier when he found winning form at this circuit and distance last Saturday, digging deep to get home by head. He draws to make an impact again. ALWAYS BE BLAKEY (9) worked from this row but proved too good here last time. That took his record at this distance to four from six. Must respect along with TARA VICTORY (5) who draws wider than last week but did well to get within a head of Clear Left when hampered by a flat tyre.

Before that 10th (Sr3) over 1609m at Geelong beaten 35 m by Dance Affair (1:54.60) in NR 56 to 64 on May 16 at $41. Will need some luck to figure.

Didn't do much at the last run, 5th (Sr5) over 2200m at Ballarat, at the bell was 8th-11.5 beaten 10 m by Twisting By (2:42.60) in NR 55 to 62 on June 12 at $19. Before that and went on to finish a respectable seventh over 1700m at Horsham last time out. Can improve but this appears a bit rich.
