Port Macquarie Race 4 - John Oxley Volkswagen (Bm50)
STRATUM CHIEF (5) can be a little hard to catch but is handy when right. Scored a tough win in a BM58 over 2000m at Taree two runs ago then failed when back to the mile last start. Down in grade today and gets in well after Farr's claim. Looks the one to beat. MY SONNY'S FAITH (1) is finding the line well without winning in much better races than this. Best recent effort was when he just failed to pick up STRATUM CHIEF two back at Taree. Not very well treated on 61kgs but in this company he must be considered seriously. CHARMED DESTINY (12) is working his way into form, making late ground to grab fourth most recently over this course and distance in a BM58. Should be thereabouts again. PRINCE CARLOS (3) is on trial at this distance but left alone in front he can give backers a sight.

Going well. Most recently 4th of 9 at Taree Bm66 on March 17 over 2018m, on a slow track; 5.5 len behind Tajawal with 55kg at $26. The race before that 2nd of 8 at Taree Bm58 (57) on February 25 over 2000m, nose behind Stratum Chief carrying 57kg at $9. Going well and another win is looming.

At the latest run sat on speed throughout when 2nd of 12 at Gunnedah Bm50 on March 15 over 1400m, slow going 0.9 len behind Waydie carrying 55.5kg at $4.40. The start before that led to the turn then faded 5th of 12 at Tamworth Bm58 on March 9 over 1400m, 3.5 len behind Pharoahzano with 54kg at $31. Solid each-way hope on that form.

At the latest run ran last of 11 at Taree Bm58 on March 17 over 1614m, slow going 9 len behind Tsunoda with 56kg at $41. The start before that won by a nose at Taree Bm58 (57) February 25 over 2000m defeating My Sonny's Faith with 55kg at $11. Capable enough on his day and is expected to run well.

The start before that 7th of 12 at Grafton Cl1-Sw on February 24 over 2230m, 2.5 len behind Brave Deel carrying 59kg at $21. Made headway last time. Rates highly on his best performances and is among the leading chances.
