The first, Rules Point, will contest the feature event of the seven-race card, the $18,000 South Coast Registered Clubs Cup (over 1425 metres).

The six-year-old began this campaign strongly before a hiccup last time out when third-up at Canberra. Miladinovic points the finger at himself.

Rules Point used up too much energy in the early stages of that race when he was taken on for the lead, and subsequently was not able to challenge in the closing stages.

"He was going great guns, but that last start was a bit of a disaster, which sort of brings us back to square one," the trainer said.

"I instructed the apprentice [Carly Frater] to lead, but really I should have covered my backside by saying: 'Look, if someone does take you on, just drag him back', which she tried to do in the end, but it was all too late. The horse was fired up and the early speed wore him out."

Miladinovic expects a better result at Moruya on Sunday.

"Although it looks like there are a lot of high-class horses there, not all are in form, so I think it's a relatively easy race.

"[Rules Point's] work was pretty good the other day so I dare say he'll run a good race. He's a horse that always puts in. He's a trier."

The second horse that Miladinovic expects to go well at Moruya is Murraguldrie in a class 2 handicap (also 1425m).

On paper, the five-year-old's form does not look good, but Miladinovic is optimistic he will be fighting out the finish.

"If he gets clear running, I'd be pretty disappointed if he didn't show anything," he said.
