Port Macquarie Race 1 - Port City Bowling Club Mdn Plate
WAN LOST (6) opened his career with a couple of close seconds then went to town last start and struggled to compete over today's trip at Rosehill. Back in his right grade today and this presents a great chance for the breakthrough win. ROCKBARTON SPEAR (9) couldn't go with them early but stoked up in the closing stages to finish fourth on debut over 900m at Newcastle 16 days ago. Far better placed over today's journey. Not drawn the best but with even luck he can play a key role. HELLFIGHTER (7) is back after a five-month spell. Best of three runs in the maiden campaign was a fast-finishing second over 1400m at Scone. One to watch for late in proceedings. LONGCHAMP LAD (3) recently returned from a 15-month absence with an encouraging effort over 900m at Newcastle where he found the line with gusto. Sure to derive great benefit from that hit-out. CARMINE (1) disappointed first-up as a short-priced favourite at Taree. Deserves another chance.

Second run back. First-up after four months 5th of 9 at Taree Ctry Mdn-Sw on March 3 over 1300m, slow going 5.5 len behind Casino Collection with 59kg at $1.30. Previously second-up ran on from midfield; 3rd of 12 at this track Super Mdn-Sw on September 28 over 1509m, neck behind The Warrior carrying 59kg at $2.35. Strips fitter and expected to do a lot better this time around.

Most recently 5th of 7 at Rosehill Cg&E Mdn-Sw on February 25 over 1200m, 7 len behind Hay Street carrying 59kg at $31. The run before that gave a sight but was run down late 2nd of 8 at Gosford Prov Mdn-Sw on February 5 over 1200m, 0.5 len behind Ausbred Hed'n'tail carrying 59kg at $4. Major player back in this far more suitable race.

Last start 4th of 8 at Taree Mdn on March 10 over 1250m, on a slow track; 4.5 len behind O'britzelle carrying 58kg at $14. The run before that got back early 5th of 10 at Tuncurry Mdn-Sw on February 21 over 1000m, 1.5 len behind King Of Vegas with 58.5kg at $61. Might find this a bit tough.

Three-year-old gelding (Pariah - Nayana) has trialled on three occasions leading into today's race. Was third in a Hawkesbury barrier trial over 800m on February 24. Prefer to see what he can do on race day.
