Port Macquarie Race 8 - Fernhill Tavern Last Shout Showcase Hcp (C3)
PINOT NERO (5) was thrown in the deep end when last sighted contesting the G3 Spring Stakes at Newcastle. Was obviously out of his depth but deserved his shot after progressing nicely through his grades. 1500m looks a perfect kick off for him - expect to see him blending into the race beautifully when straightening and taking big strides late. ETOILE FILANTE (1) made light work of his CL1 last time at Newcastle, following up on a trio of minor placings. Bullock sticks and can keep the ball rolling. HIGHLY TEMPTED (3) is ticking along nicely and gets in well again with the claimer piloting. Yet to score here but has run well. Have to include. SAVVYROCKER (2) bounced back to form last start and rates a leading chance.

Form hard to fault. Most recently favourite; tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 1.5 len at Newcastle Prov Cl1 January 31 over 1500m defeating Alamagan with 59kg at $1.70. The race before that 3rd of 10 at Beaumont (Newcastle) Prov Cl1 on January 15 over 1250m, slow going neck behind Herman Said carrying 56.5kg at $3.60. Sure to get all the favours from barrier two.
