Melton Race 6 - Vicbred Voucher Pace

ALPHA CRUCIS (7) has had three runs this prep without filling a placing but they have all come in higher-graded races and he was only 1.8m off the winner here two back. Has to contend with a very wide draw but will be race fit now and this race suits. TASTE IT (3) could be close to another win after a second last start at Shepparton, beaten 4.6 metres. Aided by a good draw so is expected to run well. CHALKNCHEDDAR (4) draws wider but was good last time out, improving to finish third at Swan Hill. Go well again. ICANMOTOR (6) recorded a string of placings prior to the latest attempt so may be worth another chance.

Last start broke in score up and was out of position at the start 9th (Fr1) over 1609m at Geelong well beaten by Arzali Rockstar (1:55.00) on October 16 at $51. Two runs back posted a big 6 m win as favourite when quickly away, (Fr5) at Stawell (2:11.30) beating Zwick in on April 3 at $2.25 at the bell was leading 2.4m on the pegs. Fitter so may improve.
