Taree Race 5 - Manning River Steel
SUNDOWN (2) has shown good improvement at his last two starts, breaking through last time at this track over 300m. Makes plenty of appeal if runs up to latest. MISCHIEF AFOOT (6) is a capable type and proved too classy last time to win by 2 lengths at this track in a handy 17.68 beating Ice Queen Kaos. Leading player again. SEE RED (1) is worth forgiving last start after finishing fifth (17.89) from Box 8 at this track over 300m. Boasts two wins from five starts out of this box. Can figure in the finish. CANYA PAPRIKA (4) should bounce back after an unplaced effort here recently.

Good performance to post a big 4.5 lengths win at this track over 300m (17.74) beating White Earner in Grade 5 on April 25. Looks well placed and should be tough to beat.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage eighth last time out over 300m at this track. Tempted to look elsewhere.

Returns from a 11 weeks spell after being tipped out on the back of a fifth (18.00) over 300m at this track. Looks one of the hopes in the race.

Hit the ground running last time with a fast early split and never headed, leading throughout to win by 2 lengths (17.68) over 300m at this track. Looks the one to beat again.

Missed the frame latest (17.84) when fourth over 324m at Richmond Straight in a Grade 4. Has two successes and two minors from six starts from box 8. Has ability but looking elsewhere this time.
