Race preview

Welcome to Taree for the Glass 24/7 Showcase Plate, a Class 1 set weights test over the 1600m journey. Conditions are rated a Soft 7 with the weather overcast, setting up a proper test for this field of stayers and developing types. Looking at the early win market order, punters have zeroed in on Purple Haze holding down the top spot, closely followed by Fly The Wind, Whoopi Do, and Atadcheeky rounding out the leading quartet in the betting ring. With a mix of seasoned campaigners and lightly raced prospects engaged, let us dig into the form lines and see how this yarn might unfold on the track.

Purple Haze brings solid credentials to the table for trainer Adam Duggan with Ashley Morgan in the saddle from barrier 3. This galloper showed plenty of grit when refusing to shirk the task, finishing second in a maiden at Port Macquarie over 1506m off a long break, and should strip all the better for that outing. Fly The Wind is another prominent market fancy, handled by Reece Jones for trainer Matthew Smith from barrier 5. Though going home tamely at Illawarra Grange last time out, a drop back to country level here could spark improvement as they tackle the 1600m for the first time. Meanwhile, Whoopi Do lines up with Aaron Bullock steering from barrier 6, coming off a strong win at Newcastle where they rallied powerfully from midfield to salute over 1300m, though the rise in distance and wet footing present fresh challenges.

Digging deeper into the form, Atadcheeky jumps from barrier 2 for Glen Milligan and Zac Wadick, heading here on a quick back-up after a narrow second in a country boosted maiden at Port Macquarie over 1500m. Speed maps show Purple Haze and Cats Quarters taking up positions on the pace, while runners like Russian Escape, Whoopi Do, Atadcheeky, and Fly The Wind settle off the speed. For punters looking to unravel the puzzle, Purple Haze looks ready to peak third-up, but it is an open race where several chances can stake a legitimate claim.

Comments

AAP

On a short back-up. Long time since last saluted. Handily placed but lacked the necessary pick-up at Port Macquarie. Deep gate and leaning towards others here.

ILB

Backs up quickly. Odds of $81.00 and finished 6th last time at Port Macquarie and carrying more weight than last time. Priced to finish behind most.

Has won previously at this course; form has an up and down look to it; out of the frame (beaten 4l in sixth, Port Macquarie) on Saturday in a handicap; others more persuasive given many of his rivals are in good form.

RSIS

On a short back up. Started at 80/1 and came in 6th last run at Port Macquarie and going up in weight.

Armidale maiden winner then unable to make an impression in a C2 at Tamworth. Better placed in this but will need some luck.

ILB

Odds of $81.00 and average effort when 6th last run at Tamworth and has more weight to carry. Facing a difficult task.

RSIS

Started at 80/1 and looked flat when 6th last run at Tamworth and has to carry more weight this time.

Put in some good work late at Grafton. Sticky gate but can't rule out on recent tidy performances.

ILB

Odds of $11.00 and advanced late into 5th last start at Grafton. Can't leave out of your calculations.

Consistent performer and this is his level; fair effort at Grafton last month in a handicap; more than capable if on song so is of some interest.

RSIS

At 10/1 kept chasing when 5th last run at Grafton. Could be in the mix.

Impressive come-from-behind win at Tamworth for new trainer. Stiffer task now but has momentum.

ILB

Stormed home to win last run at Tamworth. Goes well and could be a value opportunity.

Has raised his game the last twice; scored by 1½l in a maiden on first run for this trainer (Tamworth), breaking his duck at the sixth time of asking two weeks ago; may have to settle for supporting role despite that win at Tamworth.

RSIS

Bold effort when winning last run at Tamworth. Has claims.

Freshened. Dropped out to last and never sighted at Tuncurry second-up. Others carry more punch.

ILB

Started at $26.00 and underperformed when 13th last time at Tuncurry. Looks hopeful.

Finished last of 13 at Tuncurry last month (behind La Bella Rosa) in a handicap; has won here before; more than capable if on song so has to be taken seriously.

RSIS

At 25/1 disappointing run when 13th last start at Tuncurry.

Settled back and didn't figure on a soft deck in the (Bm58) this venue. Hard to warm to here.

ILB

Started $101.00 and disappointing effort when 8th last time here. Hard to see it being competitive today.

Could not manage better than eighth last month in a handicap; makes limited appeal with a number of her rivals in good nick.

RSIS

Started 100/1 and mediocre display when 8th last run at this venue.

Settled back and didn't figure on a soft deck in the (Bm58) at Grafton. Form prior sound. Each way.

ILB

At $13.00 ran 7th last run at Grafton. In good order this preparation. Keep safe.

Beaten 6l in seventh over 7f at Grafton (handicap) two weeks ago; has proven competitive in a race of this nature; shown she can get her head in front so rates a likely contender.

RSIS

Started 12/1 and ran 7th last run at Grafton. Producing consistent results in recent runs. Respect the betting.

Local who rallied powerfully from midfield to salute at Newcastle. Untested in wet and rise to 1600m also a new challenge but A Bullock on again. Consider.

ILB

Finished well when winning last start at Newcastle. Others are more appealing.

Seems to have stepped up on previous form the last twice; shed maiden status at the seventh time of asking in a maiden when springing a surprise to win at 100-1 two weeks ago (Newcastle) upped to 6½f; she's worth a go.

RSIS

Ran on hard when winning last run at Newcastle.

Backing up quickly. Narrow miss in the Country Boosted Mdn at Port Macquarie 10 Oct. Deep into his campaign, can make his presence felt.

ILB

On a quick back up. Right in the mix last time at Port Macquarie and showing improvement in recent outings. Running with confidence since returning from a break. Capable type.

Good effort when close up in a handicap at Port Macquarie last Saturday; signs of improvement on last two runs but yet to open his account after 11 starts; makes limited appeal as regularly been coming up a bit short lately.

RSIS

Racing on a quick back up. Close to a win last start at Port Macquarie and displaying improvement over the past few runs. Definitely worth considering.

Resuming (45-weeks). Ex Mark Newnham in Hong Kong. Two quiet provincial trials for return. Horror gate for first Aust outing. Betting best guide.

ILB

First up from a break of 45 weeks. Jumped at $13.00 and looked outclassed when 10th last run at Happy Valley and down in trip. Others are better.

No wins in overseas starts; not hard to turn elsewhere.

RSIS

Resumes after a 45 week break. Was 12/1 and struggled with the pace when 10th last run at Happy Vstall and down in trip. First race for a new trainer.

AAP

Refused to shirk task in Super Mdn at Port Macquarie off long break. Better for the outing. Not out of it.

ILB

Just shy of the win last run at Port Macquarie. Jockey Ashley Morgan and trainer Adam Duggan link up well. Has claims.

Seems to be improving based on last two runs but yet to get off the mark and losing run stands at eight; was a close second over 7½f at Port Macquarie (handicap) last month; not been able to get his head in front lately so looks an unlikely winner.

RSIS

Competed in a tight contest last start at Port Macquarie. Ashley Morgan and Adam Duggan are highly regarded when paired. Solid claims.

Broke maiden at Queanbeyan 8 Sep. Solid rally into the placings in choppy conditions at Goulburn over this journey. Has some claims.

ILB

Ran on strongly when 3rd last run at Goulburn. Producing consistent results since resuming from a spell. Can measure up against these.

RSIS

Did well to run into 3rd last run at Goulburn. In the placings regularly of late. Gets a chance against these.

AAP

Went home tamely at Illawarra Grange at $41. Rise to 1600m a new challenge but has shown glimpses of ability and could find a few lengths back at country level.

ILB

Was $41.00 and finished 6th last start at Illawarra Grange. Have to look elsewhere.

Held in sixth 15 days ago (Illawarra Grange) in a maiden; has found improvement of late but form has been a bit mixed lately; easy enough to take on with a few rivals in good form.

RSIS

Started at 40/1 and finished 6th last start at Illawarra Grange.

AAP

On a quick back-up. Largely struggled in her post maiden runs. Had all before her at turn and went home tamely at Port Macquarie. Has plenty to find.

ILB

Backing up quickly. At $21.00 struggled when 8th last run at Port Macquarie but back to a rise in trip. Should jump out and bowl along. Others much better.

Didn't run too badly when out of the frame at Port Macquarie (beaten 4½l) in a handicap on Saturday; useful in this grade.

RSIS

Backs up quickly. Started 20/1 and basic showing when 8th last start at Port Macquarie but back to more ground. Should muster plenty of early toe.

AAP

Brave on-pace performance at Moruya. Super fit from racing, sound claims.

ILB

Managed to run into 2nd beaten by 2L last time at Moruya and has a positive draw. Putting up notable efforts since returning from a spell. Good chance at a nice price.

Proving a little expensive to follow but seems to be improving based on last two runs; finished runner-up when 5-6 at Moruya 14 days ago; also engaged in race 3 at Taree.

RSIS

Was strong late when 2nd last run at Moruya and has a good draw. In a purple patch of form recently. Should be in the finish.

Not disgraced at Dubbo. Placed only other run at Taree. Place preferred option.

ILB

Started at $3.60 and ran 6th last start at Dubbo. Expecting to settle positively. Genuine claims.

Been running well in defeat of late but proving a little expensive to follow; a disappointing result (went off favourite) when beaten 2½l in a handicap at Dubbo 19 days ago; also engaged in race 3 at Taree.

RSIS

Odds of 13/5 and finished 6th last start at Dubbo. Should race on the pace. Good chance and definitely has claims.

On a short back-up. Well back and made some minor headway but passing mainly tired rivals at Port Macquarie. Limited 4yo.

ILB

Racing on a quick back up. Jumped at $41.00 and finished 7th last time at Port Macquarie but has a nice advantage with a good gate. Big improvement required to threaten these.

Finished behind Atadcheeky at Port Macquarie over 7½f (handicap) when beaten 5l in seventh on Saturday; also engaged in race 3 at Taree.

RSIS

Backing up quickly. Started at 40/1 and ran 7th last start at Port Macquarie but drawn by the rails. Gets back and needs luck. Carrying more weight than last time.

Odds correct as at Fri 16 Oct, 3:00 pm AEDT. Odds can change.
