Port Macquarie Race 8 - Petries Mitre 10 (Bm66)
In-form sprinter THE PICCOLINO (10) enjoyed a five-week freshen-up before his last start third over 1200m at Scone where he led until the closing stages. Won't mind coming back in trip and if he holds that form looks the one they have to beat. TOOMUCHINFORMATION (7) has raced twice this prep and been beaten a whisker on both occasions in five-furlong BM58 contests. Up in class and draws a wide gate but with some weight relief he should give a good account again. BODGIE (2) is an each-way chance first-up from a two-month let-up. Beaten in a three-way thriller at Wyong in May when fresh from five weeks off - that is a strong form reference for a race of this calibre. TOY STORY (12) is back from a break. Opened last prep with an impressive win in a Class 1 at Taree so he must be considered. Watch for a better run today from BUCK PHAROAH (1) who is on a seven-day back-up and down in grade.

Returns from a 59-day let-up. Last start ran last in a small field at Scone Bm82 on June 10 over 1000m, slow going 5.5 len behind Defiant Heart with 55kg at $16. The start before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 8 at Gosford Prov Bm64 on May 29 over 1000m, in the wet; 6 len behind Formal carrying 56kg at $5. Rates highly here and can bounce back.

Most recently came home strongly from last on the turn and won by a neck at Coonabarabran Cl3 July 19 over 900m on a rain affected track defeating Canamble carrying 54.5kg at $3.50. Before that ran last of 8 at Tamworth Bm74 on July 4 over 1000m, slow going 8 len behind Who Goes There with 55kg at $20. Has been racing well. Can figure in the finish again.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. Resuming sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 11 at Muswellbrook Ctry Bm58 on July 8 over 1000m, slow going nose behind Manage The Cycle with 61.5kg at $4.60. Last start 2nd of 10 at Taree Ctry Bm58 on July 22 over 1007m, on a slow track; nose behind Amarone carrying 62kg at $2.45. Not far off a win and looms as a significant threat.

Last start 5th of 10 at Taree Ctry Bm58 on July 22 over 1007m, on a slow track; 2.25 len behind Amarone carrying 62.5kg at $12. The run before that 7th of 13 at Taree Bm66 on June 30 over 1000m, on a wet track; 3 len behind Zoom Outcome carrying 57.5kg at $5.50. Needs to do more. One of the fringe chances.

Racing well recently. At the latest run set the pace for much of the race 3rd of 10 at Scone Bm66 on July 14 over 1200m, 1.5 len behind Eighty Eight Stars with 57.5kg at $5. The run before that won by a nose at Scone Cl1 June 10 over 1100m on a rain affected track defeating Release Point with 57.5kg at $14. Rates highly. Form has been hard to fault - sure to play a huge role again.

Back from a spell. Finished off last campaign second in a small field at Bowraville Bm50 January 4 over 1370m, 2.5 len behind Shintaro Lass carrying 57kg at $5. When resuming last campaign second last of 10 at Kempsey Bm58 September 2 over 1000m, 6 len behind Catchy Tunes carrying 56kg at $51. This looks a stern test.
