Launceston Race 5

Lee's Orchard Pace

Stake: $8,640

LOU LOUS ALLGOLD (3) finished fourth last start, beaten 4.5 metres, in a nice return to form at this track over 1680m when settling back on the fence. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Meets a comparable field and she can find the winners' circle. A GOOD RED (1) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 9 metres from the winner in fourth over 1680m at this track. No excuses from this advantageous draw and can be closer in the run. This should be an easier assignment so he is sure to prove tough to beat. MEMPHIS (2) is capable of better after finishing well back when resuming over 1680m at this track four weeks ago. VELOCITY STRIDE (7) is in the mix following a sixth at his most recent appearance over 2200m at this track.

Didn't do much last start, was well back in the run when 8th (Sr4) over 2200m at this track, beaten 45 m by Jay Miller (2:42.90) in NR 40 to 44 on May 30 at $101. Before that 9th (Sr3) over 1680m at this track beaten 15 m by I Want It All (2:04.20) in NR up to 44 on May 16 at $61. Must do a lot more.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield
