Launceston Race 5 - William, Scott, Mayson & Oliver Ganderton (Bm76)
FIGHTING FOR GOLD (8) is a lightly tried 7YO who has compiled a strong record and added to her win column with a fast-finishing win fresh up here 3 weeks ago, coming from last on the turn. She is up in class, but drops a kilo, and can win again. FLYING BILLIE (5) is likely to be ridden on the pace over this trip, after running on at her last start over 1120m here last time out. She has a good draw and can figure in the top 3. GO JEANIE (6) ran on late fresh up here a fortnight ago, and with the step up in grade, she drops 2.5kg. Each way claims. NIGHT PEOPLE (4) needed his first run for the year when finishing sixth here 2 weeks ago. He is a handy gelding, who should be a quick improver with racing under his belt. SHY GUY (3) showed more of his best when breaking a win drought at Devonport-synthetic just over 5 weeks ago. He is just as capable on the turf, so stick with him now that he has his confidence back.

Second run back. First-up after nine months 6th of 8 in a Bm68 at this track on October 2 over 1200m, on a slow track; 3.5 len behind Prince Of Khatun carrying 58kg at $8.50. Previously second-up 4th in a small field in a Bm68 at Hobart on December 28 over 1400m, on a slow track; 2 len behind Skin In The Game with 58.5kg at $3.50. Fitter and can do a lot better.

Recent form sound. Last start 4th of 9 in a Bm76 at this track on September 25 over 1120m, 2.25 len behind Glory Mission carrying 54.5kg at $15. The race before that ran on from midfield; 2nd of 8 in a Bm68 at Hobart on August 5 over 1390m, on a slow track; head behind Geegee Strawberry with 57kg at $3.80. Up in trip and is worth some thought.

Second-up. First-up after a year came home strongly from last on the turn and won by 0.5 len in a Cl3 at this track on September 25 over 1220m defeating Ozonica carrying 55kg at $3.70. Previously second-up 5th of 14 in a Bm68 at this track on August 3 2025 over 1400m, on a slow track; 3.5 len behind Just Cruisin' carrying 55.5kg at $5.50. In the money when second up in the past and can add to that record today.
