Tim O'Connor • April 5th, 2025 4:12 pm

Tim O'Connor has done the form for Saturday night's meeting at Melton.
R1 – 6.21pm – CNC ROUTER BITS FREE FOR ALL – 1720m
1 – Tango Tara
9 – Bulletproof Boy
11 – Triple Eight
6 – Yambukian
R2 – 6.59pm – LIFESTYLE COMMUNITIES WOODLEA PACE – 1720m
10 – My Uncle Stan
4 – Look Like Diamonds
2 – Triple Rock Saint
1 – Dukes Choice
My Uncle Stan was huge winning two back and then produced a great run from last to finish seventh last time out. He’s flying. Look Like Diamonds was super from the chair winning first-up from a bad gate and draws to sit handy tonight. Backing both to win.
BACK: 10 My Uncle Stan and 4 Look Like Diamonds – 1 unit each (win)
R3 – 7.36pm – DYNAMIC PRINT GROUP PACE – 1720m
3 – Ubetta Knot
9 – Odin
13 – Momentum Shift
6 – All Blazing Guns
(Noting a small ownership share in Lochiel Lad)
R4 – 8.13pm – HYGAIN TROT – 1720m
4 – Destrier
8 – Call Me Jack
10 – Mister Blindside
11 – Maoris Mac
R5 – 8.46pm – YABBY DAM FARMS TROTTERS FREE FOR ALL – 2240m
5 – Harry Stamper
3 – Aldebaran Acrux
10 – Plymouth Chubb
8 – Watts Up Partytime
Harry Stamper is back in the zone and produced a great finish off 30m last time to run fourth to Harold Smith. Before that, he chased just as good as Im Ready Jet in the race she won first-up. Hoping tonight’s his night.
BACK: 5 Harry Stamper – 3 units (win)
R6 – 9.14pm – NUTRIEN YEARLING SALES ON 13 APRIL PACE – 1720m
5 – Dessie Gee
3 – Rockandance
1 – Diamond Eclipse
7 – Raging Whitebait
Good little race this with many chances, but fancy Rockandance can sneak across to the pegs and is backable on the each-way.
BACK: 3 Rockandance – 1 unit (each-way)
R7 – 9.47pm – ALDEBARAN PARK TROT – 2240m
9 – Mercenary
7 – Little Yankee
8 – Avant Guard
11 – Brandlo Prince
Eight of these clashed last week when Watts Up Partytime won, and I thought Mercenary was super running fourth along the sprint lane. He was in front not long after the line on the back of a good trial. Going again.
BACK: 9 Mercenary – 2 units (win)
R8 – 10.24pm – VHRC PACE – 2240m
1 – Golden Shooz
6 – Deuce Coupe
10 – Clymenus
3 – Ideal Moth
R9 – 10.53pm – HYLAND RACING COLOURS PACE – 2240m
10 – The Statesman
13 – Luva Scrap
12 – Neatntidy
2 – Sheza Daydreama
Hard race here, but reckon Sheza Daydreama is just huge odds for a horse who draws well and closed off nicely last time. Tiny each-way.
BACK: 2 Sheza Daydreama – 0.5 unit (each-way)
