Jockey Christian Reith will rely on a select four runners to give him success at Tuesdayโs Muswellbrook meeting.
Reith has rides in just over half of the seven-race card, starting with the Rodney Ollerton-trained Russian Words in the Horsepower Maiden Plate (1000m).

A three-year-old filly by Russian Revolution, Russian Words made her debut with an eighth at Scone behind Herman Said in June, before resuming from a spell with a fifth of seven behind Kiss Goodnight at Gosford on December 31.
Reith and Ollerton combine again when Bent As Hell contests the Gold Sponsors Club Now Open Class 1 Handicap (900m).
Bent As Hell is a five-year-old mare by Hellbent and has one win and four placings from her 10 starts. She broke her maiden at Newcastle on January 25 and was then spelled after a fourth at Wyong when less than three lengths from the winner.
The Scott Singleton-trained Magurtz looms as a leading chance for Reith in the Hunter Thoroughbred Breedersโ Maiden Handicap (1280m).
Reith partnered the gelding, by Tassort, in both his trials before being aboard in two race starts. Magurtz made his debut with a close-up fourth at Scone and then followed that with a fifth on the Beaumont track at Newcastle at his only other start.
Pre-post TAB fixed-odds favourite Crimson Wings is Reithโs other mount at Muswellbrook, with the Trapeze Artist filly lining up for her fourth start in the Magic Millions Class 3 Benchmark 66 Handicap (1280m).
