Race 7 — Lake Cathie Tavern Hcp (C1) 1100m · jumps Thu 12 Nov, 5:35 pm AEDT

Race preview

The Lake Cathie Tavern Handicap is a Class 1 sprint at Port Macquarie over 1100 metres on a soft track in fine weather, jumping at 5:35 pm AEDT. Vittozzi sits shortest in the market, with The Warrior next, followed by Poshy's Girl and Rockbarton Spear. The field is split cleanly by early pace: three horses—Chistota, The Warrior, and Vittozzi—are mapped as leaders, while Be Someone, Poshy's Girl, and Pride Of Lanka sit onpace just behind. Real Mccoy and Paji Briway sit midfield, with Rockbarton Spear the only offmidfield runner, and a long tail toward the backmarker.

Vittozzi leads the odds at a rating of 100 and looks the logical pick on the numbers. Third at Scone last start over 1000 metres, the gelding has form to place here and sectionals show a hard early push—a template suited to 1100 metres on soft ground. Nathan Doyle's camp is out performing market expectation by 82 per cent, which counts in its favour. Rockbarton Spear, back for a second campaign after 31 weeks out, rates a real chance fresh in this line-up, with a rating of 90 and the benefit of two soft trials. Jockey Luke Rolls is 37 per cent above market expected and averaging 26 per cent better than career POT lately—smart booking into this race. Be Someone, from barrier eight, also jumps off the page: Ben Looker is outperforming career average POT by 21 per cent in his last 100 rides and is booked 29 per cent above market expectation.

The Warrior rates a real chance fresh despite a poor latest outing at Beaumont, where it knocked up badly after being on pace over 1500 metres. Dropping back to 1100 metres suits better, and the rating of 89 sits competitive. Form reader commentary notes the horse can't enthuse, a yellow flag at odds, though Perry's stable is striking at 23 per cent POT across 100 runners of late. Poshy's Girl, fourth favourite, is second campaign after 17 weeks and brought in by two trials. The mare's camp is struggling at just 8 per cent strike-rate, yet its rating of 90 and placed form on debut last prep suggests it can play a role on its return. The numbers say Vittozzi and Rockbarton Spear shape as the leading chances.

AAP

Fronting up for second campaign (14-weeks). In the minors on debut last campaign while solid trial here. Capable of making an impact fresh in this company.

ILB

First up and came on strongly when 3rd beaten by 4 1/4L first up last preparation at Taree. Should be rolling forward early from the wide gate. Strong chance to be considered.

Far from disgraced (beaten just under 3l) here over 6f (handicap) in July; likely to be in contention if finding his best form.

RSIS

Resuming and rattled home nicely into 3rd beaten by 4 1/4L resuming last preparation at Taree. Has the early pace to burn across from the wide stall. Promising career start. Holds a major chance.

Second campaign (29-weeks). Ex C Maher in NSW. Lone career win was over 1500m at Port Macquarie in last campaign. Two quiet trials for return. Check markets.

ILB

First up from a 29 week break. Jumped at $16.00 and struggled with the pace when 8th last start at Muswellbrook but has drawn to do little work. Worth a lot of thought in this race.

Finished last of eight at Muswellbrook over 7½f (handicap) in April; best form so far in last two starts; has winning track form; returns from a layoff; first start for current trainer; passed over.

RSIS

Resumes from a break of 29 weeks. At 15/1 gave away some ground when 8th last time at Muswellbrook but good career start. Will appreciate a good stall. Very capable of taking this out.

Second campaign (17-weeks). Ran creditably in her first prep. Placed at Coffs Harbour on debut last campaign while brought on by 2 trials. Can play a role fresh in this affair.

ILB

First up after 17 weeks and was quite a handful for the competition when 2nd first up last preparation at Coffs Harbour. Has plenty of early speed. Must be considered here.

Improved form the last twice; out of the frame (beaten 4½l in eighth) over 6½f at Newcastle (handicap) in July; returns from an absence here; every chance if duplicating the form of her most recent win.

RSIS

Resuming and was outmatched at the end of the race when 2nd resuming last preparation at Coffs Harbour on a heavy surface. Won't be far away during the run. Must be considered here.

On pace but soon under pressure and he knocked up badly at Beaumont. On pacer. Drops to shorter trip. Can't enthuse.

ILB

At $11.00 weakened under pressure when 6th last time at Newcastle but up against weaker rivals. Has the speed to overcome the wide barrier. Anna Roper rates highly. Very tidy performer.

Held in sixth over 6½f at Beaumont (handicap) last month; has won here before; this is competitive and others make more appeal.

RSIS

Started 10/1 and struggled with the pace when 6th last run at Newcastle but dropping in class. Should be rolling forward early from the wide draw. Coming back in trip. Good potential.

Now 5 weeks between runs. Cleared maiden ranks at Coffs Harbour 13 Sep. No threat to winner but ran on for the minors at Muswellbrook at longer odds. Goes into wider exotics.

ILB

Finished with intent when 2nd beaten by over 2 1/2L last time at Muswellbrook. Will need to elevate.

Has kicked on in his last couple of races; finished runner-up when beaten 2½l at Muswellbrook over 5f (handicap) last month; definitely of interest.

RSIS

Kept traping on when 2nd last time at Muswellbrook.

Back for second campaign (31-weeks). Wasn't all that far away in his first prep. Given two soft trials and proven here. Right in the mix fresh in this line-up.

ILB

First run back from a break of 31 weeks. Jumped at $6.00 and moved through the field into 4th last time at Muswellbrook but back to a shorter trip.

Has won here previously; not beaten that far at Muswellbrook over 7f (handicap) in April; back from an absence here; knows how to win so in the mix.

Now 4 weeks between runs. Honest type who reeled in leaders to salute this track on a soft 5. Can challenge again fresh.

ILB

Was eating up the ground late to win last start at this venue. Been in the placegetters each attempt this campaign.

Yet to taste defeat at this track, winning on two visits and signs of improvement on last two runs; gained narrow success in a maiden, breaking her duck at the ninth time of asking last month; others have more pressing claims despite the last time out success; also engaged in race 3 at Quirindi.

RSIS

Displayed a good turn of foot when winning last time at this track. Has run into the money 3 from 3 attempts in recent runs.

On speed, had enough in the tank for the minors Hcp (C2) at Scone. Can go forward. Makes a strong case in this company.

ILB

Couldn't keep the momentum going throughout when 3rd beaten by 1L last start at Scone and up against a less competitive field. Won't be far away during the run. Solid chance.

Turned in a solid effort in defeat three weeks ago, when third over 5f (handicap, Scone).

RSIS

Claimed late when 3rd beaten by 1L last start at Scone and competing in an easier class. Should race on the pace. Commands respect.

AAP

Went home tamely in choppy conditions at Coffs Harbour second-up at $15. First time around Port Macquarie. Keener on others.

ILB

Started $15.00 and advanced late into 5th last time at Coffs Harbour. Large claim helps. Needs a mighty effort to win this.

Just the one victory on her CV; beaten 6l in fifth over 5f at Coffs Harbour (handicap) last month; this looks a decent race so passed over.

RSIS

Was 14/1 and got going late when 5th last time at Coffs Harbour. Large claim helps.

4 weeks since last run. Raced in back half and was never in a position to mount a serious challenge this course. Others more persuasive.

ILB

Was well beaten when 11th last run at this venue.

RSIS

Couldn't maintain the pace when 11th last start at this track.

AAP

No threat as a $16 chance in (Bm50) at Coffs Harbour. Leaning towards others here.

ILB

Started at $16.00 and didn't threaten when 9th last run at Coffs Harbour but gets some weight taken off. Does take a while to get into stride. May find these too slick.

Finished behind Nakama over 5f at Coffs Harbour (handicap) when finishing last of nine last month.

RSIS

Odds of 15/1 and didn't attack the line when 9th last run at Coffs Harbour but gets some weight relief. Likely to get back in the run.

AAP

Largely struggled in her post maiden runs. Unable to threaten in the small field at Newcastle. Ordinary stats at the shorter trip. Hard to warm to here.

ILB

Unimpressive effort when 6th last run at Newcastle but taking on a lower class of opponents. Down in distance.

Useful in this grade; last of six at Newcastle over 1m (handicap) last month.

RSIS

Was nothing special when 6th last time at Newcastle but competing in a lower grade. Back to a shorter trip.

Went home tamely in sloppy conditions at Wauchope at $3.20. Others rate stronger.

ILB

Started at $7.00 and finished 5th last start at Wauchope but has a good draw. Facing a difficult task.

This is his level and best form so far in last two starts; held in fifth over 6f at Wauchope (handicap) last month.

RSIS

Was 6/1 and finished 5th last run at Wauchope but can find a nice position from the draw.

AAP

Long losing streak. Never went on with the job at Coffs Harbour. Usually prominent. Others more persuasive.

ILB

Racing on a quick back up. Was $61.00 and lost ground in the run home when 6th last start at Coffs Harbour. Significant improvement required.

Finished last of six at Coffs Harbour over 6f (handicap) a week ago.

RSIS

On a short turnaround. Started 60/1 and didn't find the line when 6th last time at Coffs Harbour. Has the necessary pace to overcome the wide draw.

Odds correct as at Thu 12 Nov, 5:50 pm AEDT. Odds can change.
