Launceston Race 5 - The Bottle-O Hadspen Launceston Discretionary
SHES ALLABOUTLUV NZ (7) scored two runs back then recorded a comfortable win last start, scoring by 17 metres over 2090m at Hobart. Facing a tougher assignment but she is capable of running another big race. BETTABLACK TIGER (10) made it two wins from two runs this prep last start when he got the cash by 2.5 metres over 2698m at this track. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is good enough to take this out. STEPPING STONES (11) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 6 metres at this track over 2698m. SABINE (3) showed pleasing improvement last time out when runner-up over 2698m at this track.

Didn't do much last start, was driven from back in the field when 5th (Fr6) over 2090m at Hobart beaten 12 m by Mcmayhem (2:36.60) on June 14 at $21. Before that 6th (FT Fr7) over 2698m at this track, beaten 11 m by Bettablack Tiger (3:24.00) on June 7 at $31. Others make more appeal.

Two back was well beaten into ninth behind Bettablack Tiger at this track over 2698m on June 7 at $12. Then a handy effort when beaten by 9 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Mcmayhem at Hobart over 2090m on June 14 at $15. With even luck is a winning chance.

Well beaten last start by Shes Allaboutluv, a rival who he faces again; when 30 metres fifth at Hobart over 2090m in a race on June 14. Finding a few ahead of him.

Last start surrendered the lead and finished 6th (Fr4) over 2090m after showing early pace at Hobart beaten 40 m by Shes Allaboutluv (2:31.60) on June 14 at $11. Before that, 5th (FT Fr4) over 2698m at this track beaten 10 m by Bettablack Tiger (3:24.00) on June 7 at $7.50. Should be at peak fitness now and looks tough to beat from a nice draw.

Comes here in the right form. Posted a big 17 m win as favourite when driven back in the field, (Fr5) held up early, at Hobart (2:31.60) beating Custom Harley in on June 14 at $1.90. Two runs back posted a big 8 m win as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr1) at Hobart (3:19.20) beating Rockandahardplace in on May 31 at $1.16. Great chance of another win.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 4th (Fr6) over 2090m at Hobart beaten 20 m by Shes Allaboutluv (2:31.60) on June 14 at $3.90. At his previous start 4th (10m Fr1) over 2579m at Hobart, beaten 4 m by Rockandahardplace (3:17.20) on May 17 at $4. Can do a lot better in this suitable contest.
