Hobart Race 7

Tasmanian Horse Transport Pace

Stake: $8,640

ASHANTE QUEEN (5) finished fourth last start over 1680m at Launceston but was very competitive, beaten only 2.5 metres. Has the talent to take this out. ROCK THE TABLEAU (7) finished fourth last start, beaten 21 metres at this track over 2090m. Has ability and should be right in the finish. LAID BACK (6) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish third at Launceston over 1680m. Genuine threat. FLEETWOOD ROCK (1) is worth some thought despite his last-start eighth over 1680m at Launceston on July 20. Can bounce back from the coveted pegs draw.

Resuming after a spell of four-and-a-half months. Finished off last campaign when well beaten into eleventh after being driven well back, behind No Nukes Skipper at this track over 2090m in a NR 53 to 57 on March 16 at $41. Among the leading chances while fresh.

Two back was eleventh behind Sugarpova at Launceston over 1680m in a NR 57 to 60 on June 27 at $12. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.5 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Settebello at Launceston over 1680m in a NR 53 to 57 on July 11 at $16. Expected to go well again.

Didn't do much last start, was well back in the run when 11th (Sr4) over 1680m at Launceston, beaten 21 m by Settebello (2:02.20) in NR 53 to 57 on July 11 at $51. Before that 11th (FT Fr2) over 2200m at Launceston beaten 23 m by We Salute You (2:44.10) in NR 60 or better on July 6 at $17. Needs to lift.
