Mackay Race 1

Sky Racing Mdn Plate

Prize Money: $23,000

HEROIC TALENT (2) is racing well including a last start fourth over 1400m at Rockhampton. Rock-hard fit for this and rates a leading chance against this line-up. OUTCRY (7) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish 3 lengths away in third over 1200m at this track. Best figures measure up and is sure to run well. ROCK ANGEL (3) is a three-year-old gelding by Flying Artie out of Whispering Angel set to debut for the Clinton Taylor stable. Looks forward enough following a Rockhampton trial win. Should acquit himself well and respect any positive market moves. BETTY BOOM (4) was out of the money two runs back then again just missed the frame last start over 1100m at Gordonvale, beaten 8 lengths into fourth. Suitably placed so can turn things around.

Comes here off a 51-day let-up. Most recently 4th of 9 at Rockhampton Mdn on March 24 over 1400m, on a slow track; 1.75 len behind Leica Flamingo with 56.5kg at $7. The race before that 11th of 13 at Eagle Farm 3yo Hcp on March 7 over 1600m, slow going 7 len behind North Pole carrying 52kg at $201. Not far away last time. Terrific chance to return to form.

Clinton Taylor trained three-year-old gelding lining up for debut. Half-brother to three-time winner and Group 1 performed Americain Angel. Dam was a three-start maiden. Recent trial winner at Rockhampton. Cannot be underestimated.

Last start sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 8 at Gordonvale Mdn-Sw on May 9 over 1100m, slow going 8 len behind Colonel Parker carrying 57kg at $6. Before that 4th of 7 at Mt Garnet 2yo+ Mdn-Sw on May 2 over 1000m, 6 len behind Red Falcon carrying 57kg at $7.50. Better than the last run suggests.

First starter by Pride Of Dubai out of Little Black Fish. Half-sister to five-time winner Patagonian. Dam was unraced. Third May 6 at Rockhampton at her only trial. Some relief with the 1.5kg claim for an apprentice. Barrier an advantage. Monitor market moves.

At debut, 5th of 9 at Rockhampton Mdn on April 24 over 1050m, on a slow track; 7 len behind Triple Spirit with 58kg at $21. Will be better for that outing but she might find this a bit tough at only her second start.
