Launceston Race 8 - Nutrien Solutions Globe Derby Heat Two
PORT RUN MACHINE (8) could only manage to finish fifth at his latest appearance over 2090m at Hobart, a poor reflection on his short quote. Form prior to that was strong, including a victory over 2200m at this track two starts ago. May need luck at some stage extracting from the inside of the second row. Has the ability to take this out. HIGH FROSTY (5) turned in a strong performance last start when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 2180m at Burnie. Good enough to win a race of this calibre. MORIKAWA (7) is the next elect off a last-start win by a head at this track over 2200m when fresh from a spell. QUALIFY (2) is the best of the rest after finishing fourth over 2200m at this track last time out.

Fair run when beaten by 6 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Winning Brew at Hobart over 1609m in a 3yo+ on October 11 at $41. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.5 m finishing second behind Sweetheart Dior at this track over 2200m in a 3yo+ on October 25 at $5. Sure to be in the mix.
