Taree Race 11

Manning River Steel

Stake: $2,802

QUIRKY NACHO (1) is rarely out of the finish, recording 26 places from 43 starts. Hit the board with a minor placing last time when third (20.09) at Gunnedah. Has never missed the frame from seven starts from this draw, including a win. Can measure up this time. DOLLY DAWN (8) was in the placings last time but prior to that she clocked an enormous 17.35 win over 300m at this track. Expecting another bold showing. MY JULIA (2) is a promising dog in the frame at seven of 15 starts including four wins and was a last start winner (17.57) over 300m at this track. Goes well from this draw. Best form too dangerous to ignore. Have to include. REMISSION RUN (7) has top-three aspirations after placing last time.
