Melton Race 3 - Hyland Racing Colours Trot
ARTIGAS (6) made it two wins in a row last start when he led and got the cash by 7 metres, taking his record at this circuit and distance to two from two. Draws wider but he is at his peak so can register the hat-trick. ALDEBARAN ABEL (5) came from this barrier and scored by 10 metres at Bendigo last start, giving him two wins and a placing from three appearances so far this campaign. Race fit and is capable of another big performance. JUST AS I AM (10) may need some luck from the back row but has claims off a Kilmore win three back. KYVALLEY JUDGE (11) has been out of the money from this row in the last two outings but is unbeaten at this distance and has some ability.

Brings the right form to the table. Won by 2.25 m (Fr1) at Ballarat (2:45.80) beating Off Your Faceski in on June 11 at $4.40. Two runs back was driven from back in the field when 3rd (Fr4) over 1690m at Maryborough beaten 15 m by With Aplomb (2:05.50) on May 31 at $13. Might find this a bit tough.

Four-year-old entire who has plenty of ability. Unlucky last start 7th (Sr6) over 2150m at Bendigo beaten 19 m by Karbine (2:38.70) on June 3 at $3.90. Useful type who is not out of this despite the second-row draw. Unbeaten at this distance so is up to this with his A-game.
