Racing and Sports highlight our standout plays at TAB meetings for December 2.
Taree: Race 2 @ 2.10pm
There might be a bit of cat and mouse here with no noted on-pacers engaged. PINNACLE POWER (11) returned from a 31-week spell with a closing 3rd over 1000m at this track last start. Kept fresh since that outing 45 days ago. Has placed 8/13 at Taree but is still winless after 24 starts overall. Must salute sooner or later and won't get a better chance. DR MAYHEM (9) did his best work late to just miss a placing over 1710m at Grafton last time out. Back in trip but is going better than most of these. LESLIE JAMES (1) is a first starter by All American. Has been trialling since January so should have some race-sense. Watch betting. RIGHT BOWER (5) caught the eye late when resuming over 900m at Muswellbrook. Hard to hold out over this trip. SELECTION: Back #11 Pinnacle Power on a 1 x 2 basis at around 5.00 in a race with very few live hopes.

Sapphire Coast: Race 5 @ 4:10pm
MOHAHNA (1) resumed in good order as favourite in Canberra and then things didn't work out that venue after off a wide gate. Draws low today with a handy claim and don't be surprise if he goes close at value odds. AMEARES (5) has been beaten a lip the last two in stronger Maidens. Gets the in-form McDougall first time and pushing forward is fancied to go one better. CASIARD (3) is an improver who shouldn't be far away. ROSEBANK (11) draws well and gets some gear tweaks for the new yard. Pepper is firing and improvement from the former Victorian won't surprise. SELECTION: A day where the better chances are very well found. The Olive yard have scratched a few today, but #1 Mohahna stays in, and third up may provide the betting edge against the hot favourite, at the each way quote.
