Taree Race 3 - Tab Venue Mode Mdn Plate
Good maiden. ROYAL BOTANIC (10) has been about the mark at all four runs to date, the latest over 1400m at Newcastle where she loomed to win but didn't quite finish it off. Best performance was three back when runner-up over today's journey at Newcastle under 1kg more. Finds the right race to grab a well-deserved win. POSHY'S GIRL (9) started $2.20 favourite and had every chance but found one better over this course and distance 18 days ago. Progressing nicely and with a touch more improvement she can take this out. SERIOUS JEWEL (11) raced handy then battled on just fairly for fourth recently over 1300m at Scone. Has only been to the races twice so this two-year-old has more to offer. AIRBURST (7) resumes. Switched to the Paul Snowden yard at the end of last prep and ran a nice second here at this distance. Should return in good order. COOL ZOUSAIN (3) has found the line well in his two runs to date and will enjoy the step up in distance today.

Third race start. First start ran last in a small field at Hawkesbury Mdn on February 19 over 1000m, 8 len behind Infant Warrior carrying 59kg at $6.50. Went for a break before returning rolled along in front before being edged out 3rd of 9 at Port Macquarie 3yo Mdn on June 14 over 1210m, slow going 2 len behind Smashing Nova carrying 58.5kg at $31. Fitter and worth considering.

Recent form sound. Last start raced on the pace when 3rd of 8 at Newcastle F&M Mdn-Sw on June 6 over 1400m, slow going 2.25 len behind Where's My Halo carrying 58kg at $10. Before that rolled along in front then was edged out late 2nd of 13 at Scone Super Mdn on May 15 over 1300m, 0.7 len behind Rustemo with 57kg at $7.50. Rates highly. Progressing nicely and is sure to prove tough to beat.
