Verdict

BANTARKI (5) took up the running in the rich Port Macquarie Sprint last start and did well to hold on for third at the end of 1250m. Won't find this race as deep and back to his favourite track third-up is perfectly placed. BUCK PHAROAH (6) has been attacking the line strongly to wind up just behind the placings in his last couple of appearances, both over 1000m. Meets some better types today but this distance is more his go, and Taree has been a happy hunting ground. SAVOCA (8) made it two in a row when he charged home to take out a BM66 over 1200m at Tuncurry recently. Kept fresh for this which did the trick last start. In career best form and is a live chance of the hat trick. TARTAGLIA (7) disappointed last Saturday at Port Macquarie. Best form is right up to the mark so keep him safe. ZARU (3) has missed the frame just twice from 18 Taree runs. Good fresh performer who can run a big race.

Third-up today and won third-up previously. Resuming came from midfield and won by a nose at Port Macquarie Bm74 September 28 over 1006m defeating Bomarea carrying 59.5kg at $12. Second-up led but faded 3rd of 14 at Port Macquarie Sprint on October 10 over 1200m, 2.5 len behind Scud with 54kg at $8. Previously a winner at this track and distance. Can keep the good form rolling and take this out.

Chasing a hat-trick. Returns from a 35-day let-up. Last start settled well back; won by 1.0 len at Tuncurry Bm66 September 12 over 1200m in heavy going defeating Telegraph carrying 57kg at $3.10. The run before that won by 1.4 len at Tamworth Bm58 August 7 over 1200m on a rain affected track defeating Just One Look with 59kg at $3.60. Hard to leave out on current form.

First-up. Finished off last campaign second last of 11 at Randwick Midway Bm72 June 7 over 1500m, soft track; 3.5 len behind Hellfire Express carrying 57.5kg at $11. When resuming last campaign sixth of 10 at Randwick Kensington 5yo+ Bm64 December 6 over 1250m, 1.3 len behind Spirit Of Varanasi with 58.5kg at $17. Probably find this too tough first-up under the huge weight.
