Melton Race 5 - 2Construct Trot

MYHEARTBEATSTRUE (5) finished seventh at Shepparton two runs ago before finishing fourth at her latest appearance over 2180m at Kilmore, beaten 3 metres. Has the class to take this out. NOBLE COUNT (4) scored at Stawell three runs ago but has been unplaced in two subsequent runs, the latest when fourth over 2240m at this track, beaten 6 metres. This is a nice drop in grade so he is sure to prove tough to beat. FLOATING MOUNTAIN (2) is in the mix following a respectable second at his first run back over 2240m at this track. FRANKYTHEFRENCHMAN (6) has been about the mark of late and must be respected, the latest offering a sound third at Bendigo over 2150m.
