Taree Race 12 - Ladbrokes Mid North Coast Cup Heat 6 H
MALICIOUS (2) looks close to another win after finishing third from Box 4 last time (30.60) at this track. Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Rates highly and will give a great sight. HEY ARNOLD (1) turned in a modest effort most recently when fifth at Wentworth Park over 520m behind POUND KEEPING (30.07) in a Grade 5. Safe beginner who draws ideally on the inside. Has ability and can atone. POUND KEEPING (4) is an honest type who is having her first try here. Comes into this after an impressive win last time scoring by 5.5 lengths at Wentworth Park (29.35). Safe beginner but has a tricky box to overcome. Bold showing expected again. LARRIKIN PIONEER (3) showed great speed to lead all the way last start. Will give a great sight.

Lines up from box 1 for the first time after finishing a 10 length fifth at Wentworth Park (30.07) in a Grade 5. Looks suited and should go close.

Won over this track and trip. Latest effort finished 3rd in a NG on July 29 over 525m at this track behind Kiarni Phoenix beaten 2.5 lengths (30.60). Comes out of a hot form race. Worth following up.

Solid performance to post a big 5.5 lengths win at Wentworth Park over 520m (29.35) beating Entertainer in Grade 5 on August 27. Can make it two on the bounce.
