Launceston Race 5 - Ladbrokes Popular Srm Stakes
DIDYALOUSAROOSTA (5) is racing in tremendous fashion with two wins and two minor placings from the past four outings. Finished win at Hobart two starts back then did a great job again at his latest appearance over 1680m at at this track, beaten a neck into second after being up on the pace from the outset. Good enough to win a race of this calibre. MUZZAME MATE (2) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 8 metres from the winner in fourth over 1609m at Hobart. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Meets a comparable field and he is a strong winning hope. PREPARATION (1) ended last prep with a tenth at this track over 2200m 11 weeks ago. Can open this campaign with a more positive effort. CENTURIAN MISS (4) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by a neck at this track over 1680m.

Last start 4th (Fr5) over 1609m at Hobart was 7th-21.2 at the bell, beaten 8 m by Treacherous Dan (1:56.80) on October 11 at $8.50. Before that, a game effort when 2nd (Fr4) over 1680m after racing wide at this track, beaten a head by Weona Eagle (2:01.20) on September 27 at $2.90. Worth another chance.

Racing in great heart. Last start won by a neck when quickly away, (Fr1) at this track (2:02.10) beating Didyalousaroosta in on October 4 at $8.50 at the bell was 2nd-4.2. Can go back-to-back.

Last start solid effort when 2nd (Fr3) over 1680m after showing early speed and racing wide at this track was leading by 4.2 at the bell, beaten a neck by Centurian Miss (2:02.10) on October 4 at $6. Two runs back won by 2.75 m as favourite when quickly away, (Fr1) at Hobart (1:58.00) beating Will He Pike in on September 20 at $2.90 at the bell was leading 4. Sure to go well again.
