Hobart Race 6 - Hygain Pace
DENVER MAN (3) finished fourth last start, beaten 10 metres at Launceston over 2200m. Has the benefit of a good draw. Has the ability to take care of this field. TAPPY (5) turned in a poor effort by his standards last time out when 25 metres away in tenth over 2090m at this track. Form prior to that had been solid. Meets a comparable field and he can figure in the finish. LADY IN LINE (4) is better than her last-start seventh over 2090m at this track. Worth another chance. DONNY IN PARIS (9) is worth some thought based on his third over 2090m at this track two runs ago. Include in exotic bets.
