Hobart Race 8

Clarkie Tyres Division1

Stake: $4,376

ASTON SMOKEY (4) copped a check in the run finishing out of the placings when a 4 length fourth (26.03) in a Best 8 at this track. Tough to beat on best. BUCKLE UP ARIA (7) was responsible for a modest effort most recently when fifth at Launceston over 515m behind Harden Up Johnny (30.29) in a Grade 1/2. The form out of her last race has been franked. Key player if finds best. CAL'S SENSATION (6) was racing in great form recording two on end before he was checked in the run and placed in a Grade 4 at this track (26.29). Has the ability and looks a key chance. AGENT RAHM (1) is one of the chances after collecting a minor prize last time.

Won two starts back when well in the market at Launceston over 515m. Last start finished 3rd over 461m at this track beaten 7 lengths (26.29) behind Gravitational in a Grade 4 on June 27. Scored two on the trot prior to last start. Can return to winning form.

Didn't make the placings last time at Launceston (30.29) in a Grade 1/2, finishing a 7 length fifth. Goes very well from the draw boasting five victories and three places from 13 starts. Looks a leading chance.

Needs to do more than recent efforts, the latest a seventh over 461m at this track. Tempted to look elsewhere.
