Taree Race 4

Ladbrokes Taree Cup Heat 3 H

Stake: $3,773

WEFFALEE SHIELD (4) is yet to miss the placings in an excellent record this track and trip which boasts two wins. In the money last time at Wentworth Park (29.99) in a Mix 1/2/3, finishing a 0.8 lengths second. Looks the one to beat with even luck. NIGHTMARE LAURIE (2) was quickly into stride and burnt early from the middle draw where he gave a sight, finishing second (23.18) and beaten 2.5 lengths over 411m at Casino. Smart beginner who should take advantage of the low draw. Must be included in calculations. LITTLE CLIFFY (8) settled back from out wide but wound up hard into the minor money, finishing 4.5 lengths from the winner (25.42) at Maitland in Grade 5. Will give a great sight again. COIN COUNTER (3) is a last start winner worth following up.

Hit the ground running with a fast early sectional but found one better when runner up over 411m at Casino clocking 23.18. Leading chance who should prove hard to beat.

Won two starts back at The Gardens over 515m in 29.97. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when fifth over 525m at this track at Grade 5 level. Other runners look much more appealing.

Got back last start and could only manage third but before that won by 2.5 lengths at Maitland (22.63) beating Trickle in a Grade 5 on March 17. Going better than form suggests. Don't underestimate.
