Maitland Race 3

Husqvarna Max 150 Points

Prize Money: $3,235

RED TAPE (4) spotted a start but wound up strongly to score by 6 lengths (22.76) at The Gardens in Grade 5. Winner at his latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. Hard to go past. DESPICABLE RAMBO (1) is progressing well and looks close to another win after hitting the frame last run (17.44) at Richmond Straight. Has won two of four starts from this draw. Hard to beat again. DESPICABLE LEO (2) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing eighth (30.92) in a Grade 5 at Gosford. Can do much better this time. GOOD ODDS KEONA (5) will have admirers after surprising many with a placing last time out.

Has hit the frame the last two starts, the latest at double figure odds when third (30.70) over 525m at Taree Super Track. Drawn close to the inside. Looks to have the job ahead.

Finished third last start (30.31) at big odds over 515m at Gosford. Awkward draw to overcome. Solid top-three prospects.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when third (23.17) over 400m at The Gardens. Tough draw to overcome and looks tested this line up.
