Hobart Race 4 - Welcome Hobart Football Club Pace
CLARE FAVOURITE (3) good effort to finish in the money two back then broke last start but still got home by 1.75 metres over 2090m at this track. Has the benefit of a good draw. Finds a nice race and will be a major force again. NANCESTIGER (8) has been knocking on the door for a while then went close again last time over 2200m at Launceston, finishing third and just 11 metres from the winner. Can travel in a nice spot from this draw and wait on the sprint lane if necessary. Good enough to win a race of this calibre. COOLANDCOLLECT (9) scored last start over 2200m at Launceston five days ago. Well-placed here and a forward showing is anticipated. CANNON BEACH (7) is usually thereabouts and must be included following a last start second at Launceston.

Comes here second-up after only six days break. Lacklustre first-up performance when was well back in the run when 7th (Fr5) over 2090m after racing wide at this track beaten 45 m by Preparation (2:35.20) in 3yo+ MAIDEN on March 22 at $11. Hard to have in this line-up.

Racing in great heart. Last start won by 2 m after showing early speed, (Fr5) at this track (2:35.80) beating Shades Of Silk in 3yo+, NMT 2 LTW's CGH on March 22 at $7. Should prove very hard to beat again.

Didn't finish last start at this track and two back 6th (Fr4) over 2150m after showing early pace at Carrick, beaten 30 m by Neon (2:38.40) in 3yo+ NMT 4 LTW's on March 9 at $9. Prefer to see him perform well before recommending.

Two back was well beaten into fifth behind Neon at Carrick over 2150m in a 3yo+ NMT 4 LTW's on March 9 at $7. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Coolandcollect at Launceston over 2200m in a 3yo+ NMT 4 LTW's on March 23 at $2.70. Hard to beat.
