Taree Race 10

Manning River Steel

Stake: $1,660

BELLA ZEST (2) has a strong record this journey with two wins and a minor from six starts. Scored by 3 lengths last time (17.47) in a Grade 5 over 300m at this track. Appeals as a leading chance in this. HERUGRIM (7) was well supported last time but could only manage second (17.36), beaten 1.5 lengths. Likely to be in the finish again. MULWEE PRINCESS (1) was an effortless winner two back scoring by 1.5 lengths but could manage only midfield last time when finished 5th and beaten 6 lengths at this track (17.77). Should play a prominent role. KEY JASPER (3) scored last time and can measure up again.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (17.77) in a Grade 5, finishing a 6 length fifth. Goes very well from the draw boasting two victories and three places from nine starts. Expected to be in the finish.

Lines up chasing another win after scoring over 300m at this track in 17.47, set up by a fast early sectional. Looks hard to beat.

Good effort to win last start by a nose over 300m at this track in a handy (17.49), beating Missy Mischief. Can keep things rolling.

Has finished sixth at this circuit at the last two appearances, most recently when beaten 9 lengths behind Wild Chevy over 300m. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.

Struggling to break through but racing consistently, finishing in the minors three starts on end. Last time out flew the lids with a fast early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when second (17.36) at this track over 300m. Overdue and expected to feature again.
