Launceston Race 4 - Ladbrokes Mates Mode Pots Pace
IFYOULOVEMELETMEGO (2) failed to flatter last time out when sixth, beaten 5.5 metres, over 2100m at Charlton. Form prior to that was a better guide to her ability, including a very close sixth over 1650m at Bendigo two starts ago. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. This looks a sterner test than last time but on her best form she is capable of a far better performance. KIAVINO STRIDE (10) ran third last start at Hobart over 1609m, beaten 3 metres. Expect him to be figuring in the finish. SCRUB BASHER (1) ended last prep with a sixth at Hobart over 1609m three-and-a-half months ago. Capable of a forward showing while fresh-up. CINOCAL JAMANE (9) is worth another chance after a last-start tenth over 2090m at Hobart a week ago.

Two back was well beaten into seventh behind Maninky Moonshine at Hobart over 1609m in a NR 45 to 49 on July 13 at $31. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3 m finishing third behind Sapphire Gambler at Hobart over 1609m in a NR up to 44 on July 25 at $31. Nice effort last time. Rates highly and likely to be prominent again.
