Devonport Synthetic Race 7 - Dean Walker Designs (Bm60)
THOROS OF MYR (3) is resuming from an 11-month spell and will be a lot stronger this year. He has plenty of pace and will find this easier than his last runs at the end of his last prep. If ready, he can take this out. CHEROKEE DANCER (4) has a good record here and didn't kick on as expected here last time out over 1150m. He slides down in class, and won't mind racing over this shorter trip, and can bounce back into the money here. MISS KEEDS (10) showed a lot of courage to score fresh-up by half a length at Hobart 4 weeks ago, and she has been back to the trials on this surface since then. She won't find this any harder, and with the advantage of the pole position, she could even double the dose. POWER MAGNUM (11) has won 4 times on this surface, and even though he is mixing his form, he can never be ruled out in a race like this. Include in all combinations.

First-up. Finished off last campaign ninth of 14 at Launceston Bm60 February 2 over 1400m, soft track; 3.5 len behind Lord Whitegate with 58.5kg at $6.50. When resuming last campaign ran last of 7 at Launceston Bm68 October 25 over 1200m, soft track; 2.25 len behind Better Than Banksy with 59kg at $9.50. Doubt he will have much to offer first up.

Last start rolled along in front then was edged out late 2nd of 11 at Launceston Bm60 on April 18 over 1220m, on a slow track; 0.5 len behind Eastcoast Miss carrying 59kg at $10. Before that did the work up front then tired 5th of 7 at Launceston Bm68 on March 21 over 1400m, slow going 3.5 len behind Carneros with 54kg at $8. Still has some life in him yet and is worth including.

Useful type. Most recently sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 9 at this track Cl4 on April 21 over 1150m, 3 len behind Stars In The Night carrying 52.5kg at $7.50. The race before that ran on from midfield and won by 0.5 len at Launceston Cl2 April 4 over 1100m defeating Kusini with 55kg at $3.40. Has ability and is solid top-three hope.

Second run back. First-up after nine months raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 0.5 len at Hobart Bm60 April 6 over 1000m on a soft track defeating Periwinkle with 55kg at $9. Previously second-up 4th of 12 at this track 0 - 64 Rating on June 16 over 1009m, 1.2 len behind Elmajay carrying 54kg at $16. Still has scope for improvement and is among the better hopes.
