Taree Race 3

The Lids Fly Hosted Pots

Stake: $3,068

GOLDEN SUNSET (8) should enjoy clear running from the outside box. Below best latest at this track (18.66) when 8th and beaten 17 lengths. Form here at this distance is strong including seven wins. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings two times from three starts. Can atone. MIDNIGHT DASH (4) finished in the minors last time but the start prior broke the clock when winning over 300m at this track, taking a Grade 5 in a speedy 17.47. Rates a leading chance if runs up to recent winning time. FIREBALL ZED (1) has found the minor placings here at last couple of runs, finishing third last time beaten 2.5 lengths (17.58). Comes out of a solid form race last start. Winning chance. GIGGLING DIXIE (3) placed two runs ago then again in the money last time when second (17.49) at this track in a Mix 2/3.

Has been in the minors the last two, the latest showing strong pace early but gathered in and finished a 2.5 lengths third over 300m this track in 17.58. Last run is a strong form reference. Worth following up.

Flew the lids with a fast early split last time, hitting the frame with a 1.5 lengths second (17.49) over 300m at this track and making it two placings on end. Has the ability to be in the finish.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (18.66) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 17 length eighth. Yet to win but has placed two times from this draw. Looks well placed and should feature.
