Port Macquarie Race 3

Panthers Port Macquarie Mdn Plate

Prize Money: $27,000

Six-year-old mare LOVE YOU ANYWAY (7) has found one better at her last five starts, the latest over this trip at Muswellbrook when she closed well to be beaten under a length. Now 17 starts into her maiden prep and still performing - sure to shed the maiden tag soon and this might be her day. KIWI HARMONY (14) is a new arrival in the Neil Godbolt stable. Form around the Riverina over longer trips in recent times has been steady. Best figures measure up favourably so worth considering despite a seven-week let-up. RIVER BISCOTTE (4) is back from a five-month spell and has performed well when fresh in the past. Twice a placegetter here and handles the going so he ticks a few boxes. MORTARMAN (2) is a first starter who was with Bjorn Baker but has arrived in the Alicia Willick since his latest trial on 5 March. Hard one to line up so let the betting tell the story. ANOTHER BLING (18) has minor claims only.

Facing the starter for the first time. Three-year-old gelding by Snitzel out of Kisma AUD $ 1,250 (Inglis 2026 March (Late) Online Sale) purchase. At the most recent trial was out of the placings over 800m at Kembla Grange March 5. Easy race to launch his career so must be thrown into calculations.

Recent form sound. At the latest run ran on from midfield; 2nd of 8 at Muswellbrook Super Mdn on May 1 over 1000m, 0.8 len behind Won'thearmecoming carrying 56kg at $13. Before that set the pace for much of the race 2nd in a small field at Taree Mdn on April 21 over 1007m, on a slow track; long-neck behind Redzero carrying 57kg at $7. Building an astonishing run of minor placings but can break through this time.

Comes off a 50 day let-up. Last start 4th of 14 at Wagga Mdn on March 29 over 1200m, slow going 3 len behind Kenny's Swans with 53kg at $4.40. The race before that got back early 6th of 9 at Albury Super Mdn on March 19 over 1400m, on a slow track; 3.5 len behind Carramar with 56.5kg at $5.50. Nice effort last time. Worth plenty of thought while fresh for a new stable.
