Hobart Race 9 - Downbytheseaside @ Woodlands Stud Pace

CUSTOM HARLEY (5) turned in a strong performance last time when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 2200m at Launceston. Primary contender based on that recent effort. WAVES OF CHANCE (6) was successful last time out by 4 metres in a far better performance at Launceston over 1680m. This looks a sterner test than last time but he is capable of another big performance. WATERMELON SUGAR NZ (1) has been thereabouts of late and is a great chance to break through. Good effort last time out when he finished third at Launceston over 2200m. ROCKANDAHARDPLACE (7) is in the mix following a respectable second at his most recent appearance over 2200m at Launceston.

Two back was well beaten into fourth after a quick start, behind Horatius Speculo at this track over 2579m on September 6 at $9. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4.5 m finishing third after being driven well back, after a quick start, behind Cuzzy Bro at Launceston over 2200m on September 13 at $14. Good enough to take this out.

Didn't do much last time out, was driven from back in the field when 6th (Fr7) over 2090m at this track beaten 35 m by Everything But The (2:34.90) on September 6 at $31. Before that 5th (Fr6) over 2200m at Launceston beaten 10 m by Atomic Black (2:42.80) on August 30 at $13. Not keen.

Didn't do much last time out, 5th (Fr6) over 2200m at Launceston, beaten 11 m by Cuzzy Bro (2:38.90) on September 13 at $51. Before that 5th (Fr3) over 1680m after showing early pace at Launceston beaten 10 m by Go The Red (2:00.90) on August 30 at $17. Will not find this easy. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

Two back was well beaten into fourth after being driven well back, behind Atomic Black at Launceston over 2200m on August 30 at $10. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third after a quick start, behind Horatius Speculo at this track over 2579m on September 6 at $21. Should be there at the business end.

Last start game effort when 2nd (Fr4) over 2200m at Launceston beaten 2 m by Cuzzy Bro (2:38.90) on September 13 at $3.60. Two runs back posted a big 3 m win after showing early speed, (Fr4) at this track (3:10.00) beating Go The Red in on August 16 at $26. Capable of playing a major role.
