Launceston Race 1 - House Of Arras Fashions On The Field Mdn Plate
ILOVETHISTOWN (2) was well fancied fresh and sat second throughout, boxing on well to finish there. Fitter and off the low draw looks the one to beat in this line-up. ALPINE WHISKEY (1) raced just off the lead on debut and wasn't far away when finishing fifth. Fitter for it and has a low draw. Doesn't have to improve much to feature in the finish. TRIBAL COUNCIL (4) showed ability in a four start first campaign and looks well placed here fresh. Has the claim and inside draw so should be stalking the lead and finishing on hard. ROYAL SCENE (6) rates highly on best but has mixed form lately. Beaten just over a length two back and if she runs to that would be in the finish here. GENUINE LADY (5) was close to a win before a break and can wind up into the finish here fresh. Very wary first starter RUSHONOVA (7). Check the market.

Three-year-old filly (Russian Revolution - Speedonova) has trialled on six occasions leading into today's race. Won a barrier trial at Devonport Synthetic over 800m December 9. Very well educated and with the blinkers on and light weight should run well.
