Country racing heads to the Northern Rivers region of NSW on Friday afternoon, with the Lismore Turf Club playing host to a bumper eight-part program. The rail is out +2.5m between the 950m to 300m markers, while the rail is out +1.5m in the final 300m to winning post. The track is rated a Good 4 at the time of acceptances for Lismore Cup Day; however, with rainfall likely to hit the course proper throughout the meeting, punters can expect the surface to be deteriorating after each race. All the action is scheduled to get underway at 12:34pm AEST.
Lismore Cup Tip: Point Counterpoint
After a year off the scene, Point Counterpoint hit the line well first-up at Moree on September 1 and should strip fitter for this second-up assignment. The son of Bull Point didn’t seem to be hindered by the big weight (62.5kg) on that occasion but found the 1400m too sharp on the firming surface. The seven-year-old should be suited by the shifting ground this time around, and although Ben Looker will need to navigate a passage from barrier 11, Point Counterpoint has strong claims as he attempts to book his ticket to the Big Dance (1600m) later in the spring.

Best Bet at Lismore: Wheeper
The Chris Anderson-trained Wheeper debuts on the back of three impressive barrier trials and looks to have found a winnable first-up assignment. The three-year-old gelding won two of his three jump-outs and looked to be doing it all rather comfortably as he heads to the races for the first time. He needs to overcome barrier 12, but provided Michael Hellyer can find cover in the early stages, Wheeper should be charging down the centre of the course to claim victory.

Next Best at Lismore: Perri Lass
Perri Lass was only getting warm as she passed the post at Muswellbrook on September 10 and should appreciate stepping out to the 2100m for the first time. The Kris Lees-trained mare was unsuited to the Good 4 surface on that occasion, and based on her dominant win at Taree prior, it seems to suggest the sting out of the ground should prove ideal. Andrew Mallyon should get the charmed run from barrier one, and provided he can get off the inside when the whips are cracking, Perri Lass should be chalking up her second-career victory.
