Coffs Harbour Race 2 - Choose Petticoat For The Kosciuszko Mdn Hcp
RUM AND KIRK (1) improving gelding who finds a more suitable contest today. Placed first up at Grafton, then sent to town with a plugging eighth over 1200m at Eagle Farm. Can take control early and prove hard to run down. KOBI EXPRESS (5) seven-start maiden with his hoof on the till. No excuses here with Palmer's 3kg claim after shouldering the 59kg for a tough on-pace second over 1025m at Grafton. Will roll forward in what looks a two-horse race. PIETIERO (7) failed to come up in her first campaign and returns from a five-month spell. Fitted with the two trials and should go on with it this time in. Each way. FLYING MONARCH (3) Trapeze Artist gelding from an O'Reilly mare on debut for the Peter Sinclair yard. Has impressed in two trials and market moves must be closely monitored.

Third-up today. First-up rolled along in front then was edged out late 2nd of 10 in a Mdn-Sw at Grafton on July 19 over 1100m, on a slow track; nose behind Mongolian Spring with 59kg at $3. Last start 8th of 11 in a Cg&E Mdn-Sw at Eagle Farm on August 12 over 1200m, 5.5 len behind Beat The Rap with 58kg at $6. Expected to run well in this easier contest.

At the latest run led but faded 2nd of 11 in a Ctry Mdn-Sw at Grafton on August 18 over 1025m, on a slow track; 1.2 len behind Taleika with 59kg at $6. The race before that raced on the pace before fading 10th of 14 in a Ctry Mdn-Sw at Grafton on July 15 over 1000m, 4.5 len behind Farnished carrying 56kg at $17. Making headway. Capable of taking this out fourth up.

First starter by Palace Pier - Lucciola. Has run a number of unimpressive trials leading in today's debut. Wait and see what she can do.
