Melton Race 4

Irt Ian Daff Memorial Mares Pace

Stake: $16,200

SWEET IDEAL (9) was in the money when fresh from a spell two starts back before making up plenty of ground to score with ease at her latest appearance over 1720m at this track, getting the verdict by 8 metres. Finds a tougher race, but another win is not out of the question. GOLDEN SHOOZ (3) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 6 metres from the winner in fourth over 1720m at this track. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Finds a tougher race, but she has the ability to test this field. DRAW A DREAM (11) is better than her last-start ninth over 1720m at this track. Include in all multiples. IDEN LADY LINCOLN (10) is open to further improvement at her third run back from a spell after scoring last time out over 2200m at Launceston. Watch closely.

Last start 4th (Sr3) over 1720m at this track beaten 6 m by Emily Vincent (2:01.70) in NR 60 to 69 on May 23 at $1.60. Before that, a solid effort when 3rd (Sr4) over 1720m at this track was leading by 0.56 at the bell, beaten a head by Samkerr (2:02.40) in NR 54 to 64 on May 9 at $1.35. From a low draw is expected to measure up.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 3 m third behind Maginot Line at Riverina Paceway over 2270m NR 53 to 57 last start. Before that was beaten 4.5 metres second again at Riverina Paceway over 1740m in NR up to 57 on May 16. Capable of going well on best figures.

Four-year-old mare who has plenty of ability. Unlucky last start 9th (Sr2) over 1720m at this track, at the bell was 4th-5.13 beaten 18 m by Little Louie (2:00.80) in NR 68 to 82 on May 31 at $2.80. Better than recent form suggests; great chance to bounce back.

Comes here second-up after two weeks. Lacklustre first-up performance when she broke in score up and was out of position at the start 8th (Fr7) over 1720m at this track, beaten 25 m by Emily Vincent (2:01.70) in NR 60 to 69 on May 23 at $18. Needs some luck.
