Taree Race 12

Fab Con Manning Valley Masters

Prize Money: $1,350

PANAMA ROAD (3) hit the frame three on end before being rewarded with a deserved win last time, scoring at Grafton over 350m (20.25). Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings seven times from 14 attempts. Can measure up again. TINKER AMINA (8) was below latest but prior to that a Mix 2/3 winner in quick time (17.50) at this track in a Mix 2/3. Has the ability and can find best this time. QUEEN'S WHARF (2) has a terrific record here with two wins and two placings from four starts. Placed last time (17.53) at this track in a Mix 1/2/3, finishing second and beaten one length. Suited here and expected to run well. BLACK BEETLE (1) missed the placings here most recently but can sneak into the finish with the right run.

Was out of placings last time (18.42) at this track in a Mix 2/3, finishing seventh and beaten 13 lengths. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and five minors. Can hit the frame with the right run.

Has been in the minors the last two, the latest showing strong pace early but gathered in and finished a one length second over 300m this track in 17.53. Boxed on well at the latest run to hit the frame. Leading player.

Good effort to score just four days ago over 350m at Grafton by 2.25 lengths in a Mix 2/3. Was in the money three on end before breaking through last start. Stick with him.

Last start failed to finish the race over 300m at this track on January 21. Generally about the mark but others make more appeal.

Solid performance after racing just off the speed to win by 2.5 lengths at this track over 300m (17.80) beating Twelve Men in Mix 2/3 on March 7. Others hold stronger claims.

Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 300m. Last start finished 4th over 300m at this track beaten 6 lengths (17.90) behind Okey in a Mix 1/2/3 on March 11. Rates highly and looks tough to beat.
