Port Macquarie Race 1 - John Oxley Geely Mdn Plate
TAWFIQ TOM (8) is first-up following a five-month break. Raced three times in the maiden prep and was competitive in much stronger maidens than this. Trialled well at Muswellbrook recently and looks set for a bright return. ALBY'S MATE (5) has been in the money at two of his last three runs, battling on well for a distant second last time out over 1106m at this track. Nicely placed out to this trip so expect him to be there at the business end. COMBS (2) led in the heavy going at Taree on Tuesday but found one a bit better at the end of 1312m. Back in class and makes plenty of appeal on the quick turnaround. LIL' BIT VAIG (10) has been struggling against better opposition - can improve in this modest affair.

Third-up today. Resuming 2nd in a small field at Tuncurry Mdn-Sw on March 1 over 1000m, long-neck behind Every Last Penny carrying 59kg at $11. Second-up raced behind the speed prior to fading second last of 9 at Taree Ctry Mdn on March 17 over 1007m, on a slow track; 6 len behind King Soleil carrying 55kg at $61. Needs to improve sharply to figure.

Last start gave a sight but was run down late 2nd of 9 at Taree Ctry Mdn on March 25 over 1312m, on rain affected going; 0.9 len behind Hardash carrying 57kg at $51. The start before that did the work up front then tired 5th of 11 at Tuncurry Mdn on March 1 over 1400m, 4 len behind Sweet Bubbles carrying 55kg at $41. Major player on the back of that sort of form.
