Hobart Race 5 - Hygain Pace
IDEN OLIVER (2) won two back at Launceston from a nice gate. Drew wide last start and was easily accounted for, beaten 22 metres into fourth at this track over 2090m. No excuses from this more advantageous draw. Finds a nice race and can make amends. KNOCK OUT NZ (1) was out of the money two runs ago then broke and finished sixth last start over 2090m here, coming home 12 metres from the winner. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Big chance if he behaves in this similar assignment. DONNY IN PARIS (8) is the next best after finishing third over 2090m at this circuit last time out. Top-three aspirations. CAN FEEL THE FURY NZ (5) disappointed last time but is a hope based on a solid second over 1680m at Launceston two runs back. Worth another chance.

Last start 6th (FT) over 2090m at this track, beaten 12 m by Sapphire Gambler (2:39.10) on September 11 at $2.70. The run prior was well back in the run when 10th (Fr6) over 1680m at Launceston beaten 22 m by Might And Temerity (2:01.50) on August 30 at $7.50. Capable of a far better showing.

Last start was fourth after being driven well back, behind Vivid Dream at this track over 2090m on September 20 at $10. Performed better the start before where he won by 1.2 m as favourite (Fr2) at Launceston (2:42.50) beating Kenya in on September 13 at $1.50. Can bounce back to form.

Fair run when beaten by 3.5 m finishing second behind Shoobees Spirit at this track over 1609m on August 21 at $16. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind Iden Oliver at this track over 2090m on September 6 at $8. Going along well. Should be in the finish again.
