Melton Race 6

2Construct 3Yo Maiden Trot

Prize Money: $6,000

KING OF NORMANDY (7) is a three-year-old son of Classic Connection on debut for the Geoff Webster stable. The driver has some work to do from this wide starting position but he looks to have talent based on two recent trial wins. MISS HOLLY RED (3) has to come into calculations on the back of some strong recent form, most recently when fourth from wider at Maryborough. WAR DAN PHOENIX (8) broke last start but still managed to fill a minor placing at Kilmore. Will enjoy a pretty soft run from this draw and could be working towards a win. REDBLUENPURPLE (4) can improve second up.

Three-year-old filly by Majestic Son out of Fremarksmitzi on debut. Finished second at Geelong in a trial on April 20 over 1609m. May be worth keeping safe.
