Taree Race 4 - Ladbrokes Popular Srm
MIDNIGHT DASH (1) turned in a better effort at this track last start, finishing third behind Park Key Paw (17.58) in a Grade 5. Has the pace to be prominent. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings two times from three starts. Can find winning form. OVERRIDING (2) hit the frame latest (17.47) when third at this track in a NG. Has five wins already from this draw. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts. AWESOME RETURN (6) was safely held last time out, finishing fifth at this track over 300m behind Kenzies Comet (18.02) in a Grade 5. Was in the money prior to that. Goes well out of this box with a win and three minor placings. Expected to give a good account. ASTON PRESIDENT (7) is in the mix despite finishing out of the placings here last start.

Returns from a three-and-a-half months break and only other fresh up run was on debut when placed at big odds over 300m at this track. Would be better placed in something easier.
