Melton Race 2 - Hyland Racing Colours Pace

CHASING THE WIND (9) was beaten as a hot favourite last start but did cover some ground before finishing less than 4m off the winner. Had looked close to a win when runner-up at his previous two, missing by a head here two back. Big chance. THE VILLAIN (1) will be fitter for recent racing and led from a couple of spots wider last start so can take advantage of the ace draw. Strikes at 50 per cent at this distance and could be ready to show his best. FOUR LONELY NIGHTS (5) looks close to a win after missing by a nose when runner-up from a similar draw last week at Geelong. BEST BACK BRUCE (11) raced wide from a similar draw to this to beat FOUR LONELY NIGHTS and score last start so respect.

Looks well placed in this tougher race, but it was impressive winning two starts back [-+] tracked on the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 5 m after showing early speed, (Fr3) at Shepparton (2:43.20) beating Conspirator in NR 40 to 45 on June 17 at $8.50 at the bell was 2nd-0.13. Can make its presence felt.
