Launceston Race 6 - Vizpix Broadcast Services Stakes
SUGARPOVA (2) will relish a class drop from last start where she drew wider. Will relish this barrier having to led win two starts back. Can take full advantage and do it again. GRINNING AGAIN (7) scored by a nose at this track over 2200m last start, the second win from his past three outings. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. Perfectly placed and is sure to play a major role again. HES APPLES (5) finished third of 11 last start, beaten 11 metres at this track over 1680m. Has ability and should be right in the finish. KNOCK OUT (1) has drawn to advantage and should give backers a great sight.

Failed to impress last start; 8th (Fr4) over 2200m at this track, beaten 18 m by Maddis Tiger (2:41.30) in NR 64 to 75 on July 6 at $15. Showed ability the outing before when she won by a neck after showing early speed, (Fr1) at this track (2:03.00) beating Sabine in NR 57 to 60 on June 27 at $2.60. Big chance from this draw.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 3 m third behind Grinning Again at this track over 2200m NR 56 to 63 last start. Before that was beaten 3.5 metres fourth again at this track in NR 59 to 63 on June 13. Can play a role.

Well-beaten 14 days ago at this track over 1680m, and two back was driven from back in the field when 7th (Fr4) over 2200m after being wide early at this track, beaten 35 m by Knock Out (2:42.40) in NR 59 to 63 on April 27 at $71. Cannot enthuse on what we have seen of late.

Two back was beaten by 6 m finishing fifth behind Imperial Laz at Hobart over 1609m in a NR 55 to 59 on June 15 at $5.50. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Sugarpova at this track over 1680m in a NR 57 to 60 on June 27 at $10. Winning claims.

Last start stood flat footed and finished 10th (FT Fr5) over 2200m at this track beaten 22 m by We Salute You (2:44.10) in NR 60 or better on July 6 at $31. Before that, 5th (Fr7) over 2200m at this track, beaten 6 m by Smokescreen (2:44.60) in NR 61 to 64 on June 27 at $61. Certainly worth another chance.

Didn't do much last time out, then managed to finish seventh over 2200m at this track last start. Before that 7th (Fr5) over 2090m at Hobart beaten 25 m by Thee Old Bomb (2:33.20) in NR 57 to 64 on June 29 at $5. Faces a tough assignment. Unlikely to threaten.
