The new week of racing gets underway at Port Macquarie Race Club on Monday afternoon, with a quickfire seven-part program set for decision. The rail moves out +2m the entire circuit, and with no significant rainfall forecast across the weekend, punters can expect a genuine Good 4 surface. All the action is set to kick-off at 1:45pm local time.
Best Bet at Port Macquarie: Speithtacular
Speithtacular couldn’t have done much more in a luckless runner-up debut at Ballina on February 14. The Spieth filly missed the start before being ridden along to find the top in the middle stages, using plenty of energy to hold a position as they turned for home. She had every right to fade in the concluding stages, but kept finding as Deep Stealth narrowly got the upper hand on the line. Expect Aaron Bullock to get the three-year-old to jump with them, and provided she can give them the slip, Speithtacular should justify the short price with horse racing bookmakers.
Best Bet
Race 2 – 
#9 Speithtacular (3)
3yo Filly | T: Indiana Turner | J: Aaron Bullock (57.5kg)
Next Best at Port Macquarie: Éclair Vitality
The Matthew Smith-trained Éclair Vitality put it all together at Scone on February 17, bursting clear of his rivals to claim a dominant 2.8-length maiden victory. The son of Lord Kanaloa showed a blistering turn-of-speed when asked for the ultimate effort, with the lightly raced four-year-old eased down on the wire. He appears well placed in this Class 1 contest, and with plenty of upside compared to some key rivals, Éclair Vitality will prove hard to hold out in his quest for back-to-back wins.
Next Best
Race 3 – 
#1 Éclair Vitality (6)
3yo Gelding | T: Matthew Smith | J: Ben Looker (60.5kg)
Best Value at Port Macquarie: Exceedzu
Exceedzu should appreciate stepping out to the 1500m third-up in the campaign after a much-improved effort at this course on February 16. The daughter of Exceedance found the 1200m too sharp but hit the line well to suggest she’s ready to peak. Andrew Gibbons can lob into a handy position throughout from barrier six, and provided Exceedzu can continue to progress for the Todd Howlett barn, she represents terrific each-way value with Dabble.
Best Value
Race 4 – 
#6 Exceedzu (6)
3yo Filly | T: Todd Howlett | J: Andrew Gibbons (55,5kg)
