Mick's Monday Mail
We head to Taree for a competitive 7 race card to kick off the week.
The track is currently rated a Heavy 9, with the rail out 3m the entire circuit.
At this set up, I'm looking for runners who can sit on-pace as making up ground on the rain affected going is not easy.
A few stats that punters should consider before betting, Dylan Gibbons has a 23.75% strike rate at this venue the past 12 months.
Dylan is a standout performer up this way, riding 19 winners in the past 12 months at Taree. He has four rides, all for Kris Lees and looks set to keep that strike rate humming along.

Taree Race 1 #2 Luscinia $2.80
Was very good at his first two career starts, before a complete forgive run last start.
He's proven over the distance and on rain affected going, which will hold him good stead for this.
Drawn barrier 4 with Dylan Gibbons aboard, he'll land one out and one back in the perfect trailing position.
He's only lightly raced and has a stack of upside, so he could easily go to a new level off the 28 day between runs.
Taree Race 4 #13 Threetimeslucky $5.00
This 3YO so of Rubick is building towards a victory and finds himself in a very winnable race.
He was strong to the line last start over 900m, but will be better suited out to the 1007m here.
Grant Buckley retains the ride from a good draw in barrier 2.
He doesn't have to lead to win this, so look for Buckley to land on speed ride him how he jumps.
It's fair to say that there is little depth to this race and I expect Threetimesluck to be fighting out the finish.
