Launceston Race 2 - The Bottle-O Hadspen Stakes
PARK LANE (6) finished fourth last start, beaten 30 metres at Hobart over 2090m. Meets a similar line up so he will be hard to beat. BARNY BILL (4) has been racing well, filling a top-five position at his last six starts including a third most recently at this track over 1680m. Has the benefit of a good draw. This should be an easier assignment so he is a major player again. ANGELSHAVTIME (7) must be considered after she finished third over 2200m at this track five days ago. ASHANTE QUEEN (3) is worth some thought after her last-start fourth over 2090m at Hobart on May 18.

Solid performance when beaten by 1.4 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Zeus Immortal at this track over 1680m in a 3-4yo NMT 2 LTW's on April 27 at $3.10. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4 m finishing third behind Rollin Mary at this track over 1680m in a 3yo+ NMT 2 LTW's on May 16 at $3.90. Will be right in the thick of things.

Failed to impress last start; 10th (Fr2) over 2200m at this track, beaten 55 m by Grinning Again (2:42.70) in NR 50 to 53 on May 16 at $2.45. Showed ability the run before when she won by a head (Fr5) at this track (2:45.50) beating Family Reasons in NR up to 49 on May 11 at $17. Better than the last run and can improve sharply.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Rollin Mary at this track over 1680m in a 3yo+ NMT 2 LTW's on May 16 at $17. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Sokys Line at this track over 2200m in a 3yo+ NMT 2 LTW's on May 25 at $16. Nice effort last time. Should go well despite the tough draw.
