Tim O'Connor's full set and best bets at Melton (13/09)

Tim O'Connor from Harness Racing Victoria has provided his full set and best bets for Melton on Saturday night.

R1 – 6.02pm – VHRC CADUCEUS CLASSIC (GROUP 3) – 1720m

7 – Catch A Wave

1 – Keayang Tokyo

5 – Horn Player

4 – Hes From Heaven

R2 – 6.35pm – LOGICAL STAFFING SOLUTIONS PACE – 1720m

12 – Louie Lou I

3 – Sergeant Lou

4 – My Ultimate Barney

9 – Diamond Eclipse

Louie Lou I is absolutely airborne and ripped out a sub 55-second last half despite being in the chair last week when third to top pacer Keayang Tokyo. Should have won a similar race to this two runs ago and he’s clearly the horse in the best form. Playing each-way despite the bad draw.

BACK: 12 Louie Lou I – 0.5 unit (win)/1.5 unit (place)

R3 – 7.12pm – GARRARDS HORSE & HOUND MARES PACE – 1720m

10 – Emily Vincent

12 – Tallaras Shadow

9 – Soap And Bubbles

8 – Vee Em Gee Macray

Emily Vincent hit the line nicely from last behind Steel Ruler last time and before that chased Curyo Gentleman home in a fast final half at Ballarat. I was disappointed with the favourite Soap And Bubbles last time out, so taking her on.

BACK: 10 Emily Vincent – 0.5 unit (win)/1.5 unit (place)

R4 – 7.47pm – NUTRIEN EQUINE CLASSIC RACE SERIES (3YO TROTTING COLTS & GELDINGS) FINAL – 2240m

8 – Sam Nien

1 – Ijjustcalledtosay

2 – Zarski

4 – Lotus Louise

R5 – 8.16pm – NUTRIEN EQUINE CLASSIC RACE SERIES (2YO TROTTING COLTS & GELDINGS) FINAL – 2240m

11 – Hammer

9 – Munny The Munster

12 – I Choose You

13 – Howdy Mate

R6 – 8.47pm - NUTRIEN EQUINE CLASSIC RACE SERIES (3YO TROTTING FILLIES) FINAL – 2240m

3 – Tracy The Jet

2 – Miss Ohana

1 – Iron Women

4 – Sky Flair

Tracy The Jet is a star in the making and should probably be unbeaten as a three-year-old. She produced a super effort in a heat of this series when she ran a fast lead time and sprinted clear to win well after a dominant Holmfield victory first-up. At the time of writing, there’s $1.50 available. That’s still value.

BACK: 3 Tracy The Jet – 3 units (win)

R7 – 9.24pm – NUTRIEN EQUINE CLASSIC RACE SERIES (2YO TROTTING FILLIES) FINAL – 2240m

1 – Jilliby Aura

2 – Hallebesofine

3 – Afternoon Breeze

9 – Aldebaran Ada

R8 – 9.52pm – YABBY DAM FARMS TROT – 2240m

2 – Lady Vici

3 – Dichotomy

8 – Gotfeelingsyouknow

4 – Imperial Command

R9 – 10.24pm - ALDEBARAN PARK TROTTERS HANDICAP – 2240m

2 – Our Marvella

9 – Im Bobby

8 – Aldebaran Vera

6 – Nephew Of Sonoko

Our Marvella had no luck last time when well beaten by Nephew Of Sonoko, but before that won well. Three runs ago, she hit the line hard from four fence behind Im Bobby to be beaten just 8.9m. If she finds a nice spot in running here, she can win at odds.

BACK: 2 Our Marvella – 1 unit (win)/2 units (place)

R10 – 10.53pm – PRYDES EASIFEED PACE – 2240m

2 – In An Ideal World

1 – Centofellie

9 – Im Dustee

12 – Dhaulagiri
