Melton Race 9 - Hyland Racing Colours Mercury80 (Listed Classic)

HI MANAMEISJEFF NZ (8) looks a class above these. Came from the outside barrier to beat reigning Miracle Mile champion Don Hugo in Sydney last week and claimed the G2 Sunshine Sprint in Brisbane three back. Untried at this sprint trip but has plenty of speed. The one to beat. METEOR MOTH (5) came from one spot wider to be beaten just over 6m when resuming in the G3 4YO and 5YO Championship last start. That was his first outing for seven months so it should have improved him. GHOST OF TIME (4) is going well with a win and a placing so far this campaign and has placed at this sprint trip before. ROCKNROLL HAMMER NZ (6) should be fitter again third up and will find this easier than his last attempt behind Leap To Fame in the Ballarat Cup.

Two runs back won by 4 m as favourite (Sr3) at this track (2:02.40) beating Royal Appointment in 1W/15 0K stake on January 10 at $2.40. Might find these too slick.
