Taree Race 2 - Mcgrath Meats 0-1 Win
DROPPING BOMBS (8) has an honest record despite remaining a maiden and overdue for a win, having placed eight of 15 career runs. Solid beginner and with a good start should have clear running out wide. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. CANYA CHIRPY (7) has been mixing form lately, hitting the frame two back before finishing fifth (31.24) at this track in a Mix. Good beginner but will need a little luck early crossing from on outside draw. Expecting significant improvement this line-up. ROSE VIOLET (1) showed little early speed at her last couple, the latest finishing fifth (30.62) in a Grade 5 at The Gardens. Strong form has emerged from her last run. One of the better chances. GLENREAGH TEARS (2) can sneak into the finish with the right run.

Has finished sixth at her last couple of starts, most recently at Casino over 411m. The form from the last run stacks up well. Worth including.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage sixth last time out over 400m at Bulli. Will need to improve to feature.

Stepping out over 525m for the first time. Out of the placings in recent runs, most recently when sixth over 450m at Grafton. Hasn't done enough of late to inspire confidence.

Was out of placings last time when fifth (31.24) at this track in a Mix. Will jump from box 7 for the first time. Should have the speed for this.
