Launceston Race 6 - Lees Orchard Stakes
KIAVINO STRIDE (7) failed to finish last start at Hobart. Scored over 1680m at this track the start before; that form puts him right in contention. Ideally placed to bounce back. DEBT TILL WE PART (6) drew a wide gate last start and was easily accounted for, beaten 22 metres into ninth at Hobart over 2090m. Finds a suitable assignment and can make amends. RANIERI (2) has a good draw and he is on the radar after his last-start sixth over 2090m at Hobart a week ago. ALBERIO (5) has been thereabouts lately, and he is in the mix following a fifth at his most recent appearance over 1680m at this track.

Didn't do much last start, 10th (Sr2) over 1680m at this track beaten 35 m by Cincinnati (2:04.00) in NR up to 39 on August 15 at $61. Before that 6th (Fr7) over 1680m at this track, beaten 15 m by Kiavino Stride (2:02.30) in NR up to 39 on August 1 at $20. Cannot enthuse on what we have seen of late.

Recent form below what he is capable of. Last start 6th (Sr1) over 2090m at Hobart, beaten 13 m by Gobsmacked (2:37.80) in NR up to 49 on August 17 at $8.50. The run prior 7th (Sr4) over 2200m at this track, beaten 11 m by Raging On (2:46.10) in NR 40 to 44 on August 1 at $10. Finds a much better draw this time and expected to atone.

Comes here second-up after nine days. Lacklustre first-up performance when 11th (Sr4) over 1680m at this track beaten 60 m by Budd Sidewinder (2:04.70) in NR 40 to 44 on August 15 at $101. Must do a lot more.

Didn't do much at the last run, 9th (Fr2) over 1680m at this track, beaten 35 m by Cincinnati (2:04.00) in NR up to 39 on August 15 at $16. Before that 9th (Fr2) over 2200m at this track, beaten 14 m by Raging On (2:46.10) in NR 40 to 44 on August 1 at $8. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

Two back was well beaten into twelfth behind Miss Collann at this track over 2200m in a NR up to 49 on July 27 at $101. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Martha Lavinia at this track over 2200m in a NR 45 to 49 on August 15 at $26. Can play a role in the finish again.
