Nicole's love for horses began 12 years ago, shared by her now husband, a VRC Member. She joined soon after and now owns three horses herself. Excitedly, Nicole thinks she has a few winners in her selections.

IS IT ME (10) has found an ideal Group race. He's won his past two in benchmark grade over this track and distance, winning strongly with 60kg last time out. Drops 6kg off that and can measure up. Have to forgive FANCIFY (6) last start, heavily backed over this route but copping awful conditions just before the race as storms came in. She dropped out there but had been very good fresh behind She's Bulletproof and that's strong form. Gets a dry track and an uncontested lead here. AYRTON (1) resumes. He flies fresh and loves the 1400m. This is his sort of level and he should run a strong race. TERRITORY EXPRESS (3) resumes. He's a horse with plenty of ability but the inside draw for a horse that loves to find trouble is a genuine worry. AZTEC RULER (4) has been rock solid in three Melbourne runs and has claims.
