Port Macquarie Race 1 - Bakewell Haulage Country Boosted Showcase Mdn Plate
BLUE DANE (4) looks close to breaking the duck after finishing in the placings at her last couple of runs. Debuts the blinkers and gets her chance to finally get off the mark. MARKWELL MUSIC (5) continued the encouraging form and wasn't far away last time when second at Taree. Gets in light with the claim and has enough pace to offset the tricky draw to give a sight. STAR OF VEGA (3) is a gelding by Lucky Vega out of House Mistress who is at the races for the first time today. Didn't show a lot in recent trial but the booking of Bullock signals stable confidence. Will pay to monitor the market. FOXY PRAGUE (2) returns and looks best of the race in a thin contest.

Second run back. First-up after about 18 months 7th of 9 at Walcha Supermartin Mdn on February 6 over 1000m, 4.5 len behind Kakoda with 55.5kg at $51. Previously second-up came from midfield; 2nd of 7 at Taree Mdn-Sw on August 26 2024 over 1005m, on a slow track; 1.5 len behind Mr Villa carrying 56.5kg at $6.50. That run was a bit plain so prefer him later on.

Resuming. Finished off last campaign second last of 12 at this track Ctry Mdn August 8 over 1100m, in the wet; 10 len behind Kings Cup with 56.5kg at $151. When resuming last campaign fifth of 10 at Taree Mdn May 13 over 1000m, on heavy track; 5.5 len behind Kermitisapet with 55.5kg at $91. Better off investing elsewhere.
