Launceston Race 2 - Ladbrokes Flex Your Multi Stays Alive Pace
PREPARATION (1) returned from a break in very good order last time out when successful over 1680m at this track on October 18, getting home by 2.5 metres. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Primary contender in this comparable race. BARBARY TALES (5) resumes here after closing her last campaign with a ninth at this track on August 1. Expect her to be prominent. ATOMIC BLACK (2) is in the mix following a respectable third at his most recent appearance over 2090m at Hobart. SUPA AMERICAN (4) ended last prep with a eighth at Albion Park over 1660m ten months ago. Can open this campaign with a more positive effort.

Solid run when beaten by 2 m finishing third after showing early speed, behind Centurian Miss at this track over 1680m on October 4 at $3.10. Then a handy effort when beaten by 9 m finishing third behind Ray Dan at Hobart over 2090m on October 31 at $16. Very hard to beat.

Last start 7th (Fr4) over 2090m after showing early speed and racing wide at Hobart beaten 9 m by Iden Lady Lincoln (2:36.10) on October 31 at $4.20. Before that, a game effort when 3rd (Sr3) over 2200m at this track was 4th-14.4 at the bell, beaten 10 m by Port Run Machine (2:40.10) on October 18 at $13. Rates highly and can atone.
