Melton Race 9 - Vicbred Voucher 2yo Trot
REMEMBRANCE TIME (5) settled close to the pace then went to the front and finished the race off in style to take out a 2240m race at this track last start, adding to her fine second the run prior at this track. Must raise the bar but another win is on the cards. MISS MUSCLE (2) did a good job to finish second two starts ago then registered a commanding win last start, scoring by 8 metres over 2240m at this track. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Taking on a better field but she is up to the task. PHOENIX REX (6) made it two wins from as many outings when he scored by 4 metres last start despite breaking in the run over 2240m at this track. It doesn't get any easier but he is going well enough to be competitive. MAJARO GIRL (1) was unplaced two starts ago then things went amiss last start when she broke and finished 18 metres away in seventh over 2240m at this track. No excuses from this advantageous draw.

Last start raced just off the speed and boxed on; won by 8 m as favourite (Fr5) at this track (2:49.10) beating Pipalicious in on July 24 at $1.80 at the bell was 2nd-4.64. Sure to go well again.

Racing consistently with minor placings at his last two starts at this course. Placed last start 3rd (Fr5) over 1720m after showing early speed and racing wide at this track beaten 24 m by Kyvalley Dixon (2:07.90) in 2yo on July 11 at $5. Before that surrendered the lead and finished 2nd (Fr6) over 1740m after showing early pace at Riverina Paceway was 3rd-4.3 at the bell, beaten 14 m by Verbici (2:07.30) in 2yo LR CG on May 30 at $7. Not keen.

Two-year-old colt facing the starter for the second time. Won at debut when from midfield and won by 1.5 m as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr3) at Shepparton (2:07.50) beating Aldebaran Mistique in on July 21 at $2.40 at the bell was leading 3.31. Looked good on that occasion but this will test.

Chasing a hat-trick. Last start won by 4 m as favourite (Fr3) at this track (2:51.40) beating Pique in on July 24 at $1.85 at the bell was 2nd-3.27. Hard to leave out on current form. Sure to be in the mix.
