Maitland Race 3 - Tg East Maitland Bowling Club 6-15
SHERRY NOT BERRY (7) was beaten for speed from wide out but attacked the line strongly to place, 0.8 lengths from the winner (23.09) at The Gardens in Grade 5. Makes plenty of appeal. WOW ACE (1) was below best at his last couple, the latest finishing sixth at Richmond Straight, but was among the placings at The Gardens three back. Expected to bounce back to best. ALCARAZ (5) was safely held last time out, finishing seventh at The Gardens over 400m behind Nakita Moira (23.73) in a Grade 5. Was in the money the start prior. Shapes as one to consider. COBBLESTONE ROAD (2) will give backers a sight.

Suited by inside box. Latest effort finished 6th in a Grade 5 on April 2 over 324m at Richmond Straight behind Kiwi Golfer beaten 6 lengths (18.15). Happy to overlook recent efforts. Well placed and gets chance to find best.

Has finished in the money at his last three runs, the latest when second (22.60) at Gosford. Has a low draw. Deserves respect.

Was out of placings last time (17.95) at Richmond Straight in a Grade 5, finishing fifth and beaten 4.5 lengths. Still a maiden from this draw but has never missed the frame from four starts. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts.

Consistent performer who is new here. Nice win last start by 0.8 lengths at Gosford (22.63) beating Kaelix Nitro in a Grade 5 on March 5. Looks a solid hope.

Big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, grabbed late but holding on to a placing when a 0.8 lengths second (23.09) over 400m at The Gardens. Found one better last time. Well placed and worth following up.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage seventh last time out over 400m at Dubbo. Prepared to risk on this occasion.
