1.51.4 tonight at Melton is not far outside Cold Major's 1.50.8 Tk Rec

1.53.5 at Hamilton today is almost a second shy of the track record but it still seems incredible to me, especially in a C0

The winner of today's Cobram Cup was always going to hold the Tk Rec as it had not been run from the mobile before but Cruz Bromac's 1.56.1 MR for the 2678m is a bloody good time and not out of place as far as records go
Flaming Flutter's 1.58.8 for the SS will probably stand for ever
The Boss Man's 2.00.8 in the Trotting Cup is a new Tk Rec taking 0.5 sec off the previous best MR for the SS

Kevin, this is a good time anywhere for that distance. One thing I always look for is how far back 2nd and 3rd are when these fast times are run and in this case it is 14m and 29m and indicates to me that the winner is a much better horse than the rest of the field. Nearly always when a real fast time is recorded-the rest of the field are left in the winners wake.
Great time by Cyrus at Melton tonight = 1.51.9
That is only 1.1 sec outside the 1720m Tk Rec that Cold Major set back in Feb

A great time- and made a mockery of parts of my previous post although Cyrus is no star. At least Bling it on has won over a million dollars so fast times are expected regularly from a pacer of that calibre (re post on 11/12/2016). Can Cyrus go on with it now? Note the stewards comments.
The track/conditions are fast at Melton tonight
especially in the mares feature
A Piccadilly Princess (and Bettors Downunder) was only 0.6 sec outside the Tk Rec sitting in the death rating 1.51.4

New track record 2:01.2 for 2700 m from The Boss Man with Ellen Tormey at the reins for the Horsham Trotters Cup. This is the third cup this preparation for the Scott Dyer trained trotter. Yarra Valley and Cobram Cups previous to Horsham.
He took nearly 3 sec off the MR of a 12yo Tk Rec
I would have gone but I am sick of the hot weather (although the Apparent Temp looks reasonable)
