David Taggart
BALLARAT
Race 1 | 9. Medicinal
Medicinal has been well backed too and why not as she comes out of a bit race finishing 3.5 lengths off Streisand. With natural improvement she can go close. Taking on the fav.
Race 3 | 11. Wazing
On debut and is into the red. Does not have to be that good to win this. Should jump lead win.
Race 6 | 10. Oliveanotherday
Resumes and is all the rage. Only has had the three runs and that was all last prep winning his maiden second-up. Hard to take the price.
Race 7 | 3. Nimbustwothousand
Was good first-up in a harder race to this. Always runs well second-up and he has to go close in this. Will get back and watch for him late.
PORT MACQUARIE
Race 1 | 5. Markwell Music
Has been knocking on the door of late and she finds her race here. Gets a huge 4kg claim and all she will have to do is steer it.
Race 6 | 5. Sparkingly - Value
Hits this third-up where he has had a win. He will find this easier than last start and hopefully will appreciate the 1200m. Draws soft to get the gun run and looks an each-way play as he will track up the favourite.
Race 8 | 1. Etoile Filante
Appreciated stepping up to 1500m for a solid win. Draws soft to get the right run and should be winning.
NOWRA
Race 5 | 9. Brave Xena
Not much of a race and there is no reason why No.9 Brave Xena can’t win again. Won well enough on debut and she will only improve from that. Draws the middle and she shouldn’t get as far back in the run like she did.
