Melton Race 3 - Hygain Edge Pace

BULLETPROOF KID (2) was about the mark yet again last start when he led and battled on well but found one better at Cranbourne over 2080m. No excuses from this good draw and expected to put up a big showing. Goes on top of HITCH TO HIS STAR (9) who ran fourth last start at this track over 1720m. Expect him to be prominent. HIGHLANDHARTBREAKA (7) can break his way into the winner's list without surprising after registering a sequence of three top-three finishes, the latest at this track two weeks ago. HITTHEROADJACK NZ (8) is another that cannot be left out after solid recent performances. Good fourth here last time out.

Two back was well beaten into sixth behind Foregone Conclusion at this track over 1720m on August 12 at $23. Then a handy effort when beaten by 7 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Cyclone Jenni at Cranbourne over 1609m on August 16 at $7. Nice effort last time. Will make his presence felt.

Last start 6th (Sr2) over 1690m at Maryborough was 8th-12.8 at the bell, beaten 8 m by Montana Pride (2:02.40) on August 3 at $16. Two runs back tracked on the speed and boxed on steadily; won by a nose (Sr1) at Cranbourne (2:33.70) beating Kiss Me Mini in on July 19 at $5.50 at the bell was 3rd-3.8. Not keen this time.
