Launceston Race 1 - Ladbrokes Mates Mode Pots Pace
WAZZA (9) is in good form with top-five finishes at his last seven starts, most recently recording a third over 2200m at this track when sent out as the favourite. Drawn to enjoy a cosy run but might need things to go his way at some stage. Recent efforts are good enough to take out a race like this. OURTIGER (4) ran second last start at this track over 1680m, beaten 3.5 metres. Talented and has plenty of upside. Expected to run well. KINGOFTHEKLONDIKE (7) has been thereabouts of late and is a great chance to break through. Good effort last time out when he finished fourth eight at this track over 2200m. MUZZAME MATE (2) showed pleasing improvement last time out when third if 10 over 1680m at this track after racing outside the leader at the bell.

Two back was well beaten into sixth after being driven well back, behind Tenaciously at this track over 1680m in a 3yo+ NMT 2 LTW's on June 22 at $26. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2 m finishing third after showing early speed, behind Modern Jive at this track over 1680m in a NR 50 to 57 on July 6 at $26. Drawn to advantage and expected to go well again.

At his previous start 5th (Fr5) over 1680m at this track beaten 19 m by Tenaciously (2:00.90) in 3yo+ NMT 2 LTW's on June 22 at $101. Rates highly on best form and can bounce back.

Last start 4th (Fr2) over 2090m at Hobart beaten 35 m by Medina (2:33.50) in 3yo NMT 2 LTW's on June 15 at $21. Two runs back posted a big 5 m win as favourite when driven back in the field, (Fr5) held up early, at Hobart (2:01.00) beating Mel Rusty Kita in 3yo+ MAIDEN on June 1 at $1.75. Capable of taking this out.

Failed to impress last start; 5th (Sr1) over 2090m at Hobart beaten 30 m by Medina (2:34.50) in 3yo+ NMT 2 LTW's on June 29 at $10. Showed ability the run before when he posted a big 13 m win as favourite when quickly away, (Fr3) at Shepparton (2:47.00) beating Alabama Ice in 0-1 WIN on June 3 at $1.80 at the bell was leading 4.06. Rates highly and looks hard to beat on best form.

Resuming after six-and-a-half months off the scene. Finished off last preparation when well beaten into tenth after showing early speed, behind Captain Perfect at Melton over 1720m in a 2yo No NR CG on December 21 at $11. Has never been out of the placings when resuming and is sure to measure up.
