Hobart Race 6

Smithawards Division1

Prize Money: $4,345

LEICA PHOENIX (1) missed the frame latest when sixth at this track (26.79) but scored three back at Launceston (29.99). Has a good record here at this journey. Can discover winning form. GOODNIGHT HEIDI (8) has been in super consistent form recently with six minors on end before missing the frame latest finishing fifth (26.58) at this track. Better than last start and can bounce back. GOOD LUCK BABE (3) was well fancied in betting last start but could only manage 0.8 lengths away in second (26.03). Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings six times from 11 attempts. Overdue and is among the main hopes.

Latest effort finished 6th on October 1 over 461m at this track behind Lochinvar Angel beaten 13 lengths (26.79) in a Special conditions race. Below best last time but looks well placed here. Deserves another chance.

Comments

Racing well without winning, recording three minors on end, the latest hitting the ground running with a fast early sectional but finishing in the minors again when second (26.03) over 461m at this track. Capable of a good showing.

Produced a good effort last start to finish fourth in a Grade 5 on October 5 over 515m at Launceston behind Longhorn, beaten 3 lengths (30.39). Be tough to make an impression against this lot.

Last start finished 5th over 461m at this track beaten 10 lengths (26.58) behind Lochinvar Angel in a Special conditions race on October 1. Missed the frame last time but prior to that had six placings in a row. Deserves another chance.
