Hobart Race 7 - Smithawards Pace
SNOWIEWILLREV (2) failed to flatter last time out when seventh, beaten 45 metres, over 2090m at this track when sent out as the favourite.. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Won't find this any harder and having won three of his five career runs here can finish a lot closer this time. I GOTTA GO (1) was once again right in the mix last start when runner-up over 1680m at Launceston, beaten 8 metres. Has the benefit of a good draw and has the ability to take this out. ALWAYS AURORA (3) could only manage to finish seventh of 11 when resuming over 1609m at this track last start but racing fitter has top-three claims. CHAMONIX (8) is better than his last-start run when finishing tenth over 1680m at Launceston would suggest. Include in combinations.

Two back was well beaten into fourth after a quick start, behind Likeyouforareason at this track over 2090m in a 3yo+ on July 12 at $10. Then a handy effort when beaten by 8 m finishing second behind Twilight Storm at Launceston over 1680m in a 3yo+ on July 24 at $10. Nicely drawn and expected to run a bold race again.

Last start 5th (Sr3) over 1680m at Launceston, beaten 14 m by Bail Denied (2:00.70) on August 7 at $31. At the run before was well back in the run when 8th (Fr6) over 1680m after racing wide at Launceston, beaten 16 m by Affamato (2:01.10) on August 1 at $51. Worth another chance from a much better draw.

Was well back in the run when 4th (Fr3) over 2200m at Launceston beaten 22 m by Bail Denied (2:43.00) on July 24 at $71. Before that 8th (Fr3) over 2200m after showing early pace at Launceston beaten 85 m by Rocky Rocks (2:40.70) on July 10 at $41. Not keen on his chances in this line-up.
