Port Macquarie Race 4 - Joyce Nelson Plate (C1)
DISCO PRINCE (2) massive run fourth-up from last on the turn with a fast finishing fourth over 1750m at Muswellbrook. Can race closer from the good gate and ready to win. CASTELLE (9) five weeks between runs when back in trip for a plugging eighth over 1400m at Newcastle. Fitter now and back out to her right trip. Genuine contender who can bounce back. CONTALDO (1) first run for the new yard covered ground from the sticky gate with a plugging fifth over 1600m at Taree. Placed at this trip and sure to be thereabouts. MORTLAKE (5) almost a month between runs when snagged back and failed to run on with a poor eighth over 1600m at Taree. Strips fitter and goes into the minor money.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. Resuming came home strongly from last on the turn; 4th of 8 at Coffs Harbour Cl1 on February 15 over 1400m, in the wet; 7 len behind Kid Billy carrying 55.5kg at $6.50. Second-up 6th of 11 at Taree Cl1-Sw on March 10 over 1600m, slow going 7 len behind Ngunnawal with 57kg at $17. Likely to find this out of reach.
