Melton Race 8

Hygain Victory Pace

Stake: $6,540

KITZBUHEL DELIGHT (9) resumes from a spell of four months after closing off the maiden campaign with an upset win at Listed level at this circuit. Lightly-raced colt with plenty of upside and should be ready to go off two nice trials. RAKAROMPA (11) won when resuming at Kilmore two starts ago before coming from this row for third at her latest appearance, beaten 3.3 metres. Has had five weeks off since but has been kept up to the mark with a trial and is progressive. SHOTINTHEDARK (5) was out of the money last start but placed at his previous two so is worth another chance. ILOVEACALENDERGIRL (8) broke the maiden last start and maybe ready to work through her grades.

Didn't do much at the last run, was driven from back in the field when 11th (Fr6) over 1720m after being wide early at this track, beaten 25 m by Star Ruler (2:06.30) in NR up to 45 on July 25 at $26. Before that was well back in the run when 8th (Fr6) over 1720m at this track, at the bell was 11th-22.77 beaten 16 m by Michen Roy (2:04.60) in NR 43 to 49 on July 11 at $31. This looks far too tough.
