Taree Race 7 - Ladbrokes Kempsey Cup Heat 1 H
BACKCREEK BENNY (1) boasts a strong record this journey with 13 wins and 12 minors from 38 tries. Was out of placings last time (30.44) at Q Parklands in a Free For All, finishing fourth and beaten 10 lengths. Expected to be in the finish. BUNDY BLUE (3) is worth forgiving last start after finishing fourth (30.25) at The Gardens over 515m. Some good form is emerging from her last run. Leading chance. PIRATE RIOT (2) jumped from a squeeze box last start but was quickly into stride and led throughout to score (29.88) at The Gardens in a Grade 4/5 over 515m. Leading player again. FEDERAL FELIX (6) is one of the chances after collecting a minor prize last time.

Didn't make the placings last time at Q Parklands (30.44) in a Free For All, finishing a 10 length fourth. Box stats strong with four wins and three placings from nine starts. Looks hard to beat with even luck.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 4th over 515m at The Gardens beaten 9 lengths (30.25) behind Hi Lo Rain in a Grade 4/5 on May 30. Placed two back at The Gardens. Thereabouts of late and rates highly this line-up. Expected to be in the finish.
