SEN Track: Tim O'Connor's Saturday night Harness Racing Tips at Melton (15/02)
Tim O'Connor • February 15th, 2025 12:30 pm
Tim O'Connor has done the form for Saturday night's seven-race card at Melton.
R1 – 6.04pm – BERALDO COFFEE PACE – 1720m
2 – Coastal Drive
9 – Shadow Celt
11 – Dessie Gee
10 – Hezasweetie
Coastal Drive was very good first-up at Ballarat when nabbed by the smart Silver Pistol in good time. He was a strong winner before a break and likely receives a nice trip here with little expected pressure. He's up against older and more seasoned horses, but keen to back him to go all the way.
BACK: 2 Coastal Drive – 2.5 units (win)
R2 – 6.30pm – RENOWN SILVERWARE PACE – 1720m
5 – Harryhoo
6 – Lincoln River
1 – Go Away Again
8 – Triple Rock Saint
Found this an incredibly hard race, but Go Away Again has good gate speed and there's a chance they might try hold the front over the short trip. If that eventuates, it makes it hard for the likes of Harryhoo and Lincoln River, who are in good form. Having two little speculative bets each-way on Go Away Again and Triple Rock Saint at odds.
BACK: 1 Go Away Again and 8 Triple Rock Saint – 0.5 unit (each-way)
R3 – 7.02pm – APG TROT – 2240m
2 – Aldebaran Boyd
3 – Aldebaran Demi
4 – Timmy Turtle
8 – Picket Wire
Aldebaran Boyd made a mistake early behind Timmy Turlle last time but chased gamely. Form prior off the pegs has been good, and importantly he draws to lead here. Can improve sharply.
BACK: 2 Aldebaran Boyd – 1 unit (each-way)
R4 – 7.37pm – PRYDES EASIFEED PACE – 2240m
4 – Louie Lou I
5 – Captain Bellasario
3 – Captain Pins
6 – Corravally Star
Louie Lou I is in great form and might be able to get across to the pegs here. He was brave off the fence behind Corravally Star and Skinnydip last week and beat Exotic Bushranger before that. Confident he runs well.
BACK: 4 Louie Lou I – 1.5 units (win)
R5 – 8.12pm – DYNAMIC PRINT GROUP TROT – 2240m
8 – Watts Up Partytime
4 – Aldebaran Acrux
9 – Illawong Larajay
7 – Sebastians Boy
R6 – 8.47pm – CNC ROUTER BITS TROT – 2240m
5 – You Really Got Me
8 – Rileys Pegasus
6 – Dels Destiny
4 – Just A Bit Dusty
R7 – 9.21pm – LIONHEART SECURITY PACE – 2240m
8 – Plains In Heaven
5 – Clymenus
6 – Jilliby Selwood
3 – Classic Angelina
Plains In Heaven ran okay last time at Cranbourne when I fancied him at a big price. His form prior is good and this is a winnable race.
BACK: 8 Plains In Heaven – 1 unit (each-way)
