Launceston Race 4 - Hamilton & Hall At The Lafm Beautide Pace
STORM VENDETTA (3) has not raced since he was successful by a neck at Melton over 1720m seven months ago. Ready for his return following a recent trial. Has the benefit of a good draw and is likely to run a big race to kick off this campaign. TWILIGHT STORM (2) made a nice return at her latest appearance two weeks ago, finishing 3.5 metres away in second over 1680m at this track. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Needs to be at her best to beat this field but she has the ability to mix it with them. IYLAC CHAMBER (7) is the next elect off a last-start win by 2.75 metres at Hobart over 2090m. ALL ABOUT SADIE (8) is a consistent performer with four top-three finishes on the trot. Won't let backers down.

Last start 8th (Fr3) over 2200m at this track beaten 45 m by Affamato (2:45.60) in 3yo on June 21 at $61. Two runs back won by a head when quickly away, (Fr2) at this track (2:45.10) beating Millycent in 3yo+ on April 4 at $4.40. Solid prospect with that run under the belt.

First up. At the last run he won by a neck as favourite when quickly away, (Fr6) at Melton (2:04.00) beating Sahara Seakret in 2yo on December 10 at $2.70 at the bell was leading 5m on the pegs. Drawn to advantage and is expected to go well.

Last start was well back in the run when 7th (Fr6) over 1680m at this track, beaten 19 m by Soho Tiger Lily (2:02.90) in 3yo+ on June 26 at $4.60. Two runs back 8th (Fr7) over 1680m at this track beaten 25 m by Soho Tuxedo (2:03.90) in 2yo on November 29 at $6. From a better draw can play a major role.

Didn't do much last time out, was driven from back in the field when 9th (Fr4) over 1680m at this track, beaten 30 m by Soho Tiger Lily (2:02.90) in 3yo+ on June 26 at $101. Before that 9th (Fr4) over 2200m at this track, beaten 45 m by Affamato (2:45.60) in 3yo on June 21 at $101. Hard to have on those efforts.

Two back was beaten by 9 m finishing third after showing early speed, behind Loyola Trios at this track over 2200m on June 12 at $2.70. Then a handy effort when third behind Bail Denied at this track over 2200m on June 26 at $4.40. Cherry-ripe now and gets her chance to break through.
