Taree Race 3 - The Lids Fly Hosted Pots 2-4 Win
MALICIOUS (7) has an excellent record over this course and distance having never missed the placings in three starts, including two wins. Was out of the placings last time (25.89) at Grafton in a Grade 5, finishing seventh and beaten 9 lengths. Rates on top and should go close. SPIN AROUND BLUE (5) had been racing in honest fashion recording three placings in a row before finishing fourth (30.39) at Wentworth Park latest. Solid record at the distance winning three races. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and three minor placings to his credit. Must be included in calculations. FLYING MONKEY'S (4) was safely held last time out, finishing sixth at The Gardens over 515m behind Major Flirt (30.32) in a Grade 5. Should be in this for a long way. BAGO SWEETIE (8) looks an each-way chance.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage eighth last time out over 525m at this track. Not among the main chances this time.

Goes well at this track and trip. At the last outing finished 6th in a Grade 5 on February 6 over 515m at The Gardens behind Major Flirt beaten 13 lengths (30.32). Racing well and has to be included.

Didn't make the placings last time at Wentworth Park (30.39) in a Grade 5, finishing a 6 length fourth. Has one success and three minors from seven starts from box 5. Key chance and should go close.

Well fancied last start but could only manage seventh over 450m at Grafton in 25.89. Had been going well prior to that. Previous form sound and worth another chance.

At the last outing finished 4th on January 31 over 515m at The Gardens behind Modest Man beaten 2.25 lengths (29.98) in a Grade 5. Looks a solid hope.
