Launceston Tips

Not much depth to this line-up. SCARLETTI placed last start at Hobart and has two placings from four runs this prep, tough to beat. KAGISO in the money last start running second at Devonport Synthetic and likely to race off the speed, the real danger in the race. LAST TREMBLE finished 10 lengths off the winner at only start at Launceston on a soft track, not the worst. YOU BETTER RUN finished in the middle of the pack last start at Launceston and likely to race on the speed, place only.

Will be a close run race between the top picks. KAKIA has two placings from five runs this prep and ran three lengths back from the winner last start at Launceston, marginal top pick. SPEED ROCK ran three lengths back from the winner last start at Launceston on a soft track and should run fitter for past attempts, hard to hold out. SIR JAG only just missed last start, finishing a length back from the winner at Launceston and likely to race on the speed, in with a chance. I'M CHEV won last start to break maiden at Devonport Synthetic and should run fitter for past attempts, the real danger in the race.

Looks a toss up between the top two selections. LILY LUELLA 2 wins from 12 attempts this campaign and was narrowly beaten as a favourite last start at Launceston, among the main chances. SH'BOURNE MIDNIGHT last start winner at Launceston and won two of four with the sting out of the ground, can figure. FIGHTING FOR GOLD can't knock the form winning two in a row at Hobart and Devonport Synthetic, could upset. ES AND ES a winner at first outing this prep and Codi Jordan a bonus, don't treat lightly.

SWOOP THERE IT IS placed when unwanted in the betting last start at Longford and won two of six as a favourite, genuine contender. MILES 'N' MILES winner of last two at Launceston, still in this. CONUMDRUM in strong form with four wins from 12 attempts this campaign and won't be far away in the run, sneaky chance. ZULU ANGEL won once this prep at Devonport Synthetic six runs back and finished in the middle of the pack last start at Devonport Synthetic, place chance.

LIKEAKALIX hasn't run a bad race and should race on the speed, perfectly placed. AZONTO on a five day back-up and drawn perfectly, still in this. TUSKEGEE in the money last start running second at Devonport Synthetic and placed twice at Launceston but been unable to get a win, chance to place. GO JEANIE short back-up of five days and goes well on a softer track, place hope.

Trying to find the quinella here with a dominant top pick. UNIQUE EAGLE unbeaten in all three runs and has multiple wins at Launceston, standout top pick. GLORY MISSION strong in winning last start at Launceston, strong place chance. MUSCLE UP has won three times at Launceston before and has gone well on a softer track, place only. THELMA back from 10 week let-up. Proven first-up winning three from three when fresh and won at Launceston last go, include in exotics.

DURAZZO can't knock the form winning two in a row at Devonport Synthetic and Launceston, serious player. TURK WARRIOR has outstanding form at this track and proven on softer tracks, for the exotics. GEEGEES GEMSTONE let-up and has outstanding form at this track, for the exotics. BELLO BEAU back from six week let-up and won one of three with the sting out of the ground, capable of getting into the money with a bit of luck.

DADANDHISGIRLS winner at Devonport Synthetic and placed once this campaign, major contender. GEEGEESCHASER finished in the middle of the pack last start at Hobart and gets the winkers back on, still in this. ZUNI tends to go well on a softer track, place hope. LOYALTY BLUES let-up for six weeks and gets the blinkers back on, chance to place.

Hard to see anything upsetting the top two choices. BRAZEN IMPACT ran three lengths back from the winner last start at Devonport Synthetic when first up and won't be far away in the run, should go well. ELEGANTLY WRITTEN 2 wins from seven attempts this campaign and proven perfromer on a soft track, in the mix. LORD WHITEGATE ran four lengths back from the winner last start at Launceston when first up and ran eighth at the track when last second-up, sneaky chance. MISS PEBBLES won last start at Launceston and Hayley Mc Carthy has had success aboard previously, not without each-way claims.
