Maitland Race 3

Ladbrokes Racing Club

Prize Money: $2,630

Hard to go past BADGER'S BEST (4) on his perfect local winning all five starts with a flying PB. Won his past two in good style and will prove hard to catch. DAWN RAIDER (2) is the only danger. Won 7 of his 10 starts this trip (22.17 PB) and is well drawn near the fence. COIN COUNTER (7) is racing in consistent form and has place claims.

Out of the money in three outings since winning at Taree in 17.62 Dec 29. Won't find this any easier and minor claims look best.

Comes into this fresh after finishing 6th in a fast 22.11 here Dec 30. Previous from had been excellent and looks the only danger.

Resumed from a spell in grand fashion winning both starts over this trip in flying times. The small field suits perfectly and is the one to catch.
