Hobart Race 4 - Morey's Tours Pace
YURUGA LASS (1) was once again right in the mix last time out when runner-up over 1609m at this track, beaten 17 metres. No excuses from this advantageous draw and her recent efforts are good enough to put her right in the finish. TAKING A PUNT (2) finished ninth here two runs ago before a comparable effort at his latest appearance over 1680m at Launceston, beaten 18 metres. Has the benefit of a good draw. Meets a similar quality field and is good enough to win a race of this calibre. MACH ANGELO (6) must be considered after he finished runner-up over 2090m at this circuit a week ago. YELLA (4) disappointed last time when sixth over 1720m at Melton. Can do a lot better so worth considering in this easier contest.

Last start was second behind Arma Rolling Stone at this track over 1609m in a NR 45 to 49 on September 26 at $6. Raced better the start before that where she won by 3.5 m as favourite (Fr5) at this track (2:38.90) beating Oh No Never Again in 3yo+ NMT 2 LTW's on September 12 at $2.05. Nicely drawn on the pegs and is a leading contender.

Last start 5th (Sr2) over 2090m at this track, beaten 6 m by Horrie Otara (2:36.40) in NR 40 to 44 on September 26 at $17. At the start before 6th (Sr1) over 1609m at this track beaten 7 m by Angelshavtime (1:58.20) in NR 40 to 44 on September 12 at $61. Certainly up to this and he is a major player.

Two back was sixth after being driven well back, behind Arma Rolling Stone at Launceston over 2200m in a NR up to 44 on September 14 at $7.50. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Horrie Otara at this track over 2090m in a NR 40 to 44 on September 26 at $4.80. Solid top-three prospects.
