Port Macquarie Race 4 - Harelec - Heat Of The Rising Star Hcp (C3)
ROCKBARTON ANGEL (4) well drawn for this and can continue the winning momentum. Peaked fourth-up with a comfortable on-pace win over 1400m at Newcastle. Can handle the steep weight rise and take stopping again. ATHENA'S TREASURE (3) went back from the outside draw and was a total forgive when tenth over 1200m at Randwick in Highway grade. Proven at this track and look for her launching late. DARK CHILL (2) was a month between runs when he shouldered the 61kg for a fading eighth over 1400m at Armidale. Can return to form with the claim from the good gate. Each way player. SPANDEX (6) capable on his day and can improve sharply at his third run back. Set a decent clip early before folding up in the straight to finish seventh over 1400m at Newcastle. Proven at the trip and worth another chance. HIGHLY TEMPTED (5) claim helps and not to be overlooked.

Most recently raced behind the speed prior to fading 8th of 10 at Armidale Ctry Bm66 on January 18 over 1400m, slow going 3.5 len behind Set To Prophet carrying 61kg at $11. The start before that held ground to the line 3rd of 9 at Lismore Xmas Cup Bm82 on December 19 over 1410m, 2 len behind Swift Charm with 55kg at $15. Will relish the claim and can bounce back quickly.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. First-up 3rd of 10 at Muswellbrook Cl3 Bm66 on January 13 over 1280m, on a slow track; 1.4 len behind Crimson Wings carrying 58kg at $26. Second run from a spell led to the turn then faded 7th of 10 at Newcastle Prov Bm64 on January 24 over 1400m, 4.5 len behind Rockbarton Angel with 58kg at $6. Strips fitter and sure to be thereabouts.

Second-up. First-up after three months ran last of 10 at Newcastle Prov Bm64 on January 24 over 1400m, 6 len behind Rockbarton Angel carrying 55kg at $61. Previously second-up ran last of 11 at Newcastle Cond Bm68 on April 23 over 1500m, on a wet track; 20 len behind Oakfield Prince carrying 55.5kg at $61. Didn't do enough first up to raise hopes.

Most recently second last of 11 at this track Qotn Bm74 on January 23 over 1200m, on a slow track; 7 len behind Moscow Circus carrying 55kg at $41.
