NEXT BEST Race 4 No.1 2: HEAD OF THE RIVER Debuts off a series of truly outstanding trials. VALUE Race 3 No. 4: TWIGMAN Ran in the Australian Derby as a three-year-old. Won two starts ago. QUADDIE Race 5: 2, 6, 11, 13 Race 6: 4, 5, 9 Race 7: 1, 7, 13 Race 8: 7, 8, 14 Aaron Bullock looks set for a good day at Coffs Harbour.

KEMBLA GRANGE BEST BET Race 7 No. 3: MR ROCK IT Has all the numbers to ensure back-to-back Kembla wins. NEXT BEST Race 6 No. 1: BILLUND Superbly bred Team Hawkes gelding who trials well.

QUADDIE Race 5: 1,2,3,4 Race 6: 1,2,6,12 Race 7: 3,5,8 Race 8: 2,10,11,13 JOCKEY TO FOLLOW KEAGAN LATHAM was a tearaway winner of his fifth Provincial Jockeys crown in 2024/25. LAY OF THE DAY Kembla Race 1 No. ZELJKO OMSIDE MAIL — COFFS HARBOUR RACE 1: Coffs Asphalt Showcase (Bm74) 1000m ZOOM OUTCOME (4) is a great advertisement for his Tuncurry based trainer Joseph Burges. The horse has won three of his past six starts and was second at another. His overall record is six wins and five placings, four of them seconds. Has accepted for Newcastle, where it is his preferred Heavy surface. Assuming he is absent, all roads lead back to the stablemate MARKWELL DREAMER (1) who is one for one here and is blissfully happy on Soft going. Bet: Zoom Outcome to win or if scratched Markwell Dreamer to win ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ RACE 2: Rob Young Country Boosted Showcase Mdn Plate 1400m PIEDI VELOCI (3) is a rather promising horse from the local Donna Grisedale barn. The long and the short of this son of Supido's story so far is that he is indeed talented but he is quite raw and is prone to beating himself. If and when he can execute, he'll rocket through the grades. IMPENDING FORTUNE (2) has drawn very well indeed and just could be better equipped or given a better lead-in to the 1400m. OL' MATE COOP (13) is costly but ultra-consistent. Bet: Piedi Veloci to win ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ RACE 3: Driscoll's Australia Ken Howard Showcase Cup 2000m TWIGMAN (4) is a son of the VRC Victoria Derby winner, Preferment, and actually ran in the Australian Derby himself. Still on pedigree matters, Twigman's third dam was the super-fast Newmarket Handicap winner, Ruffles. Twigman's 'best' is better than the rest here. SHERRIFF CODY (6) has a fine set of numbers right across the board not least that he has a second and a third among his three track and distance runs. CENOTES (7) can figure on his 'old form'. STROBING (11) is very fit and can stay. Bet: Twigman to win ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ RACE 4: Pier Hotel Super Showcase Mdn Hcp 1000m HEAD OF THE RIVER (12) was bought by Proven Thoroughbreds for $100,000 at the 2024 Inglis Classic Yearling Sale. This now three-year-old daughter of Shamus Award has been trialling up in Queensland like a 'good horse' and was dealt a 'winning draw' if he can convert. Speaking of good trials and good horses, Matthew Dunn's Yes Yes Yes filly MRS GOLDBERG (13) was so impressive when she won her 1050m Heat at Deagon on July 8. MOREBAR (7), the Noel Mayfield-Smith local, was better than it reads in his trial here. Bet: Head Of The River to win, quinella 12, 13, box trifecta 7, 8, 12, 13 ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ RACE 5: Cetnaj Country Magic Merv Mercer Showcase Hcp (C2) MY PEPPERJACK (13) was racing around Rockhampton, Yeppoon, Mackay and such until coming back to NSW to Sally Taylor who can run here or at home on Tuesday at Taree. If she runs here, she will have Jon Grisedale on again subsequent to their third at Grafton on Ramornie Day. SNITZENEGGER (6) is a huge player here but just wanted to point out his fascinating pedigree; yes, he is by Snitzel but his dam is pretty much a three-quarter-sister to Lonhro. DUPONT (11), POINT OUT (2) and PIERRE CARDINNIGAN (1) all have claims. Bet: My Pepperjack each-way ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ RACE 6: Fm Glenn Constructions Daniel Baker Showcase Sprint 1200m SAMMY CONQUERS ALL (9) is housed at Coffs Harbour by Angst's trainer Noel Mayfield-Smith. This son of Nick Moraitis's former iron horse Love Conquers All is on a hat-trick but better still, the first one was an easy one here at home in a Class 3 which he followed up with an away win on the Kensington track. Have seen SLIPPIN' JIMMY (5) do some really good things in the past, not least that super emphatic win here in a Bm74 on last year's Coffs Harbour Cup Day meeting. OAKFIELD DUKE (4) (Bullock) and LADY WARDELL (10) (Morgan) are well in this. Bet: Sammy Conquers All to win, quinella 5, 9, Daily Double 1st Leg 9, 2nd Leg 7 ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ RACE 7: Moonee Beach Hotel *Big Dance Eligibility* Coffs Harbour Cup 1600m IT'S A KNOCKOUT (7) has a lot going for her but two things really stand out, for me anyway. One, she is a Group 3 placegetter over 1600m on the limit weight here, and two, barrier four for Ash Morgan is just a gift to the Dynamic Syndications mare. Granted it is not an out and out slam dunk, a horse like SIBAAQ (1) commands great respect and attention given his 96 benchmark rating alone. If there was a total blowout, it could be OSTRACISED (13). He is a local on a hat trick but can he run a mile? Bet: It's A Knockout to win, exacta 7 to beat 1, Ostracised to place ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ RACE 8: Grant Bastian Showcase Hcp (C3) 1200m WILD SENSATION (7) has done more good than bad in her 10 starts. She beat Hell Of A Fox to win her maiden on his home turf down in Canberra back in April. Fast forward to the present and this Matthew Smith-trained filly led throughout for a big Class 1 win at Scone on July 11 beating handy locals Cresta Run and Pindorama. On the right trajectory. BEEBEE (8) is a last start winner here at the home track. He's got a great draw and a great jockey (Luke Rolls). WAHINE GALAXY (14) and Boambee Beach stay under notice. Bet: Wild Sensation to win or if scratched Beebee each-way

Can go back-to-back. NEXT BEST Race 5 No. 1: Heavenly Kiss Debuts for a new stable and brings solid provincial form. INSIDE MAIL – TAMWORTH RACE 5 Mount Bona took good improvement from her debut seventh here to win stylishly on a Heavy 10 in a Scone Super Maiden. Held up on the bend back in the field before coming between runners for fourth behind Rockbarton Angel at Newcastle. Bolt Away Now found the 1000m first-up too short. Won second-up over third track and distance last May. Antilocapra scored a nice first-up win at Scone before a third to Ballinderry Sal. Only battled away when sixth to Eclair Awesome at Gosford last start.

Gets a good run from the pole. Arctic Legend raced wide without cover when seventh to Retrieval here two starts ago. Bounced back with a good from Smoke On The Water win over this track and trip. Two Ya Got has strong claims on his Wellington win. Is a winner at his only run here. Bet: Stratified to win RACE 7 West Of Africa went back from a wide gate and worked home well for third to Iowna Merc in the Ajax Stakes. Same thing in the Muswellbrook Cup when a three-quarter length third to Lavish Empire. Can settled a little closer from a good gate. Name Dropper comes up from Victoria with back-to-back wins at Flemington and Sandown before a disappointing last at Flemington on Mar 1. Has since had a nice right handed jumpout at Cranbourne. Green Shadows won the Goulburn Cup over this trip last year. Goes very well first-up and drawn ideally. Bet: West Of Africa to win RACE 8 Super Sioux was hampered near the 600m by the eventual winner when runner-up to Powerstone at Gunnedah first-up before leading all-the-way for a length win from Enniroc over this track and distance. Quick Sharp raced outside the leader when a half-length second to Dashing Rupert at Scone before closing from well back when a half-length third to Rock 'N' Reign at Dubbo. Won on debut with Reece Jones who reunites with him. Dize has claims on her first-up win. Bet: Super Sioux each-way INSIDE MAIL – ALBURY RACE 3 Imposing Tallulah ran down the order in the Country Championship Qualifier first-up before a Berrigan win and a third in the Tocumwal Cup. Races well on her home track. Wings Of Carmen was second last in the Championship Qualifier first-up. Overraced at Canberra second-up before coming back to his own age a long head third to Dupli Kate in the Wagga Guineas Prelude. Final Comment will take improvement from his first-up seventh behind Win The Day over 1400m at The Sapphire Coast. Bet: Imposing Tallulah to win RACE 4 Malinga Missile was okay in his first two starts when third at Bathurst and fourth at Wellington both over 1100m. Stepped up to 1400m at Goulburn on Apr 8 and scored a good win from Flying Chevrolet. Hard to beat again. Jato led all-the-way to beat Divron at Wagga on Nov 1 before a spell. Returned with third to Bon Holler at Wagga on Apr 13 after being difficult to load. Rileycat will be improved by her first-up fourth at Goulburn. Was a close runner-up at Canberra second-up last campaign. Bet: Malinga Missile to win RACE 5 Heavenly Kiss was just pipped by Frontex at Newcastle on Mar 7 before a fourth to Alabama Fox at Kembla and a fourth behind Sisu Spirit at Newcastle on Apr 12. In new stable and only has to run to her recent form to go close. Carry On Lizzy was just behind the placegetters at her first two runs before at third at Swan Hill. Was wide early before sitting outside the leader when fifth at Cranbourne last start. Sister Shay and Shebrings Beauty have claims. Bet: Heavenly Kiss to win RACE 6 Foreman's Gully was third in consecutive runs at Moe and Benalla after leading. Changed stables and led all-the-way for a big win over this trip at Wagga before a disappointing last at Seymour. Back right handed on his home track. Lightning Lizard just peaked late when third to Hells Son at Towong two starts back. Raced midfield and battled away when fifth to Climate Change at Werribee last start. Won his only start here on Jan 20. Rockbarton Shout and Soo Kiss Me have claims. Bet: Foreman's Gully to win
