Mildura Race 8 - Australian Pacing Gold Pace
JAZZY MELEA (11) has recorded two wins and three minor placings from the past five starts. Won two starts back at Melton and was again to the fore at her latest appearance over 1700m at Horsham, scoring by 1.5 metres after being handy in the run. That latest effort is good enough to win a race of this calibre. LE SPARTACUS (9) settled close to the pace but didn't find enough in the end and could only manage seventh last start over 2190m at this track, that effort coming after a solid third here the run before. May need luck at some stage extracting from the inside of the second row but meets a similar line up and he can make amends. YAPPER (6) is better than his last-start eighth over 1720m at Melton. Will find this assignment much easier. EYE SEE PHILTRA (3) disappointed last time when ninth over 1790m at this course. Can atone from the low draw.

Returns to racing after a spell of four-and-a-half months. Well beaten at the end of his last preparation at this course when tenth at very long odds behind Noble Trick. Might need this run and others rate better.

Didn't do much at the last run, 9th (Sr1) over 2190m at this track, at the bell was 7th-13.6 beaten 9 m by Caulonia Terror (2:43.60) in NR 56 to 64 on June 6 at $26. Before that surrendered the lead and finished 5th (Fr3) over 1790m after showing early pace at this track beaten 21 m by Nicely Spoken (2:10.60) in NR 56 to 64 on May 30 at $51. Form not inspiring.

Solid performance when beaten by 2.5 m finishing third behind Caulonia Terror at this track over 2190m in a NR 56 to 64 on June 6 at $13. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Letsgo Big Girl at this track over 1790m in a NR 65 or better on June 13 at $11. Great chance to find an overdue win.

Four-year-old mare is racing in fine form. Won her last two outings at Horsham and Melton. Last start tracked on the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 1.5 m as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr5) at Horsham (2:04.90) beating Ranger Rick in NR 56 to 64 on June 11 at $2.60 at the bell was 2nd-1.8. Looks very hard to beat.
