Launceston Race 6

Clarkie Tyres Division1

Stake: $4,670

POCKET TALK (3) was a winner two back then strongly fancied last time but could only manage a second (29.89) at this track. Unbeaten from this box in two starts. Deserves serious consideration. HIGHGATE ALSIE (2) returned a better run last time, finishing in the money (26.26) at Hobart behind Hessle in a Special conditions race. Expected to feature again. POLLINATOR KEN (5) has been close to a win, finishing in the minors four on end before a sixth when checked in the run last time in a Special conditions race at Hobart (26.58). Expected to feature on best form. AWESOME CHILL (1) is a last-start placegetter and ran good time - in the mix again.

In the money last time at Hobart (26.26) in a Special conditions race, finishing a 2.25 lengths second. Has two successes and three minors from six starts from box 2. Looks suited and should go close.

Hit the ground running with a fast early sectional but found one better when runner up over 515m at this track clocking 29.89. Yet to be beaten in two starts out of this box. Sure to go well.

Didn't make the placings last time at Hobart (26.17) in a Special conditions race, finishing a 5 length fifth. Yet to win but has placed four times from this draw. Tough line-up and may struggle.
