BARRINGTON COAST VETS COUNTRY BOOSTED MAIDEN PLATE 1615m
It's likely to be tactical given scant early speed. TASMAN DEEL (6) improving Dundeel gelding who looks well placed third up. Was lining up for just the second time when fourth over 1400m at Tamworth with the 59kg. Has the addition of blinkers and a win looks imminent. FASHION SPREE (9) ticks a few boxes for this on the back-up. Drifted back from the outside gate and failed to make an impression when sixth over 1400m at Tuncurry in a Super Maiden. Looking for the trip and gets the claim. Genuine contender. ATADCHEEKY (1) desperate for the mile and can race closer today from the low gate. Chipped away late when fifth over 1400m at Tuncurry in A Super Maiden. Has the addition of blinkers and worth thought. LINDA'S PRINCESS (10) has found some form at her last couple of outings from wide gates. Today is no different and stays in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Tasman Deel has the upside to get off the mark. |

THE SHED LUNCHEON MAIDEN PLATE 1008m
Plenty of first starters engaged which makes it tricky to map, but we can assume a keen tempo. RUBINSKY (5) capable mare unlucky to not have shed her Maiden tag last time in. Gritty return from the wide gate with a fighting second over 1010m at Coffs Harbour. No excuses today with race experience on her side. HARVEY'S TURN (1) two runs back on the provincial tracks have only been fair and should appreciate the claim from the low draw. Gets map favours and can turn things around. TIGGSY (10) Tiger Of Malay filly from Tale Of Love on debut for the Waugh yard. Has impressed in her trials and the tongue-tie goes on from the good barrier. Leading contender. DREAM A LITTLE (3) drawn out again and strips fitter fourth up. Held on okay when fifth over 1000m at Tuncurry. Place contender. SUGGESTED PLAY: Rubinsky looks set to shed her Maiden tag. |

DEBORTOLI LIMONCELLO SPRITZ COUNTRY BOOSTED CLASS 3 HANDICAP 1008m
Genuine pace with Rich Star taking up the running ahead of Starry Jack and Warbreccan. RICH STAR (1) above-average gelding with his hoof on the till third up. Collared late second up with a game on speed second over 1010m at Coffs Harbour. Will slide across from the sticky gate and prove hard to get past with the 3kg claimer aboard. BROKEN WINGS (6) has been thereabouts of late and will appreciate the firmer track. Closed quickly with a narrow third over 1000m at this track. Has a good record here and can take a hand in the finish. EX WIFE (4) returned from a long layoff with a respectable third over 1010m at Coffs Harbour in this class. Undefeated in two attempts at this track and will need a good ride from the gate. Each-way. PRATT (2) sat on the fast tempo second up from the awkward draw with a tiring sixth in a C3 at Coffs Harbour over 1010m. Maps well and capable of better. SUGGESTED PLAY: Rich Star looks set to shine at his third run back. |

TAREE CUP CALCUTTA @ THE RAILWAY TAREE MAIDEN HANDICAP 1313m
Magatama should have enough pace to lead a low-pressure contest. COLUMBO (7) resumes. Took ground off the progressive Proxima Dea when fourth over 1400m at Randwick ten weeks ago. Fitter for the two searching trials and the blinkers go on. Hard to stop. MAGATAMA (15) Maurice mare with her hoof on the till. Appreciated the extra ground with a tidy fourth over 1280m at Muswellbrook. Should keep improving as she gets out in trip. Top three contender. TALK ABOUT LAYLA (6) failed to come up in the one run last prep. Trialling well with the two solid performances and the scratchings help her chances. PIOLLA (11) closed strongly on debut at the big odds when fourth over 1212m at Coffs Harbour. Smyth sticks and the claim keeps her in the picture. SUGGESTED PLAY: Columbo tips a few boxes from the rails draw. |

KRAMBACH CUP FRIDAY 16 OCTOBER BENCHMARK 58 HANDICAP 1413m
Moderate tempo with Prince De Vega leading the way and a few others keeping in touch. ALABAMA CHARM (8) finally got the job done at start fifteen in good style when saluting over 1300m here. Will be even stronger out to this trip and can make it two on the trot. PRINCE DE VEGA (1) improving gelding who resumed for the Jason Deamer stable last start when he made steady ground to run into third over 1212m at Coffs Harbour at the first run back from a spell. Expected to run well again. OUTOFTHEOFFICE (4) was sent out at $101 last time but raced above expectations and won over 1218m at Coffs Harbour. Big chance to repeat the feat. PEARL PENDANT (9) second-up tracked the speed and boxed on steadily when scoring over 1212m at Coffs Harbour. No excuses from the draw. SUGGESTED PLAY: Alabama Charm can go on with it now. |

TAREE CUP FRIDAY 16 OCTOBER BENCHMARK 66 HANDICAP 1615m
Solid tempo anticipated with Zou Big Boy taking charge. KURITHEA (9) showed ability in Queensland last preparation and expected to go on with it this campaign. Handy run first up with the 58.5kg when fourth over 1300m at Hawkesbury. Ready for this trip and further and expected to go close today. GEMTIKI (8) is starting to hit her straps after a dominant win over 1750m at Muswellbrook when sitting off the speed. Backs up quickly and has solid top three claims. BELLEVUE (5) anchored with the 63kg last start when a disappointing seventh over 1600m at this track. Looks well placed with the weight drop and assess on the good second at Wyong three back. CREATIVE RIGHTEOUS (3) has impressed in his first prep for the new yard and comes here in peak condition today. Used up early and never surrendered when a game second over 1600m at Tuncurry. Respect on the backup. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 9,8,5,3. |

GET YOUR TAREE CUP TICKETS CLASS 3 BENCHMARK 66 HANDICAP 1263m
Purple Rose to take charge ahead of Stormfield at a good tempo. Tricky race to end the day. PURPLE ROSE (3) will appreciate the firmer surface today after disappointing at her last two outings. Regular rider sticks from the good barrier and assess on the dominant win three back at Muswellbrook. Genuine prospect. ELLOFADUDE (4) progressive gelding who comes back in grade today. Massive effort when he sat on the speed to finish a narrow second over 1200m at Gosford in BM64 class. Will go forward from the good draw and no shock to see him go one better. MYALABY (9) has an okay record at this course and distance and should be near her top now third up. Can get cover from the gate and take a hand in the finish. ROSES IMMINENTE (7) good fresh mare resuming. Has won at the trip and can overcome the awkward gate. Fitted with the one trial and can launch late. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 3,4,9,7. |
