Launceston Race 3 - Free Gate Entry Good Friday Mdn Plate
DUBAI AFFAIR (9) peaks off narrow defeats this track/trip. She will settle forward and a leading striker sticks aboard. She finds the right race. BUNKER JAKO (3) debuts and has looked sharp at the trials. Pires sticks from the latest and he's likely to use the inside gate to advantage. The betting will be key. I'VE BEEN DREAMING (4) is busting to win and the leading apprentice claims 1.5kg. She's been freshened and maps for a soft run. Has to be considered. THE MOUNTAINEER (2) switched from a Victorian barn and just missed on the synthetic. He's been giving away starts, but is good enough at best.
