Hobart 22nd December

We head to Hobart for the last meeting before the big fella arrives next Wednesday so I would like to wish all the followers a safe and Merry Christmas so let’s find a few winners so we can buy some extra Pressies.

The two good bets of the afternoon ae Just Jaydo looks a bet race three along with Sherocks Sherolls in the last.

A few at value that I like are Nancestiger in race five and Custom Harley in race nine.

Photo First is the best play at odds in race four of the day.

RACE 1: 12:34pm Granada Tavern Pace 1609m

The first of the afternoon is for the 53-57 rated pacers. YARECKON IM SWEET (5) grows a leg in front and is suited by the short trip so will lead them a merry dance. MONEYS NO ISSUE (3) looks to find a winnable race as should be close to speed throughout so looks hard to beat. MODERN JIVE (1) will likely settle leaders back so gets every chance to fill a place. ALAPHILIPPE (2), SPOOKY GIRL (4) and GOBSMACKED (6) round out the field and are capable of running into a minor placing.

TOP PICK: Moneys No Issue (3) looks the hardest to beat.

DANGERS: Yareckon Im Sweet (5) is the danger along with Modern Jive (1).

ROUGHIE: Gobsmacked (6) can improve at odds.

RACE 2: 13:00pm Red Coral Food Van Pace 2090m

Here we have a 58-63 and the resuming Emma Stewart trained SEA SILK (1) creates plenty of interest. She draws the pole so will be well supported and take plenty of beating. MAJOR LESTER (6) always seems to find one better and might do again but can win. NOVA BAXTER (2) gets a soft draw and should sit just behind the speed so can figure as can the likes of KENYA (3), PUNTARNO STRIDE (5) and FLEETWOOD ROCK (8) who gets a soft draw.

TOP PICK: Sea Silk (1) from the draw is the hardest to beat.

DANGERS: Major Lester (6) is the danger along with Nova Baxter (2).

RACE 3: 13:34pm Kayes Fencing Pace 1609m

This is for the maiden 2yo’s and the consistent UNMATCHED (8) looks well placed to breakthrough as has options early so will take plenty of holding out. BOLT OF COBARGO (1) draws the pole so will look to hold up early and will be in the finish as usual. MARTYR (6) comes across from Victoria and has raced in stronger company so wouldn’t surprise to see him measure up here. AUDACIOUS KID (2) did win a recent trial so should be better for that and from the draw can fill a placing as can FANCY ANOTHER (3) and UNOBETTER (5).

TOP PICK: Unmatched (8) happy to lean his way.

RACE 4: 14:09pm Rick Martin Painting and Decorating Pace 2090m

This is for 3yo and older maiden pacers. SUNSHINE SAINT (4) had his chance last week but this looks easier so can go one better especially if finds the early lead. ROCK AMOUR (1) will appreciate this easier assignment and draws the pole so can improve at odds. PARTY BLAZE (12) is one from out back that has a sneaky chance if can get a cart into it. MILLYCENT (8) has been thereabouts and gets a soft draw so will be poking through late. PHOTO FIRST (2) showed good ability early at the trials so a break could see him capture that form and that be good enough to feature. B K WINDERMERE (3) OBLER (7) and MARV DREAMING (11) are a trio that are capable but are maidens fro a reason.

RACE 5: 14:44pm Whitney Family Pace 1609m

This is for the three year and older pacers. LETS GO LUCYLOU (4) has returned in good order and draws to advantage so should push forward and take plenty of beating. SWAITEK LEIS (10) will be looking to bounce back and her best is good enough so keep safe. NANCESTIGER (8) is a handy type who was better last week so with a bit of luck early will take holding out.

RACE 6: 15:19pm Brett Carr Cartage Pace 2090m

This is for the up to 44 rated pacers. JUST JAYDO (2) was good at first local run in very quick time so from the good draw should settle on speed and take plenty of holding out. STRAWBERRY BLING (3) is racing well and draws to make her presence felt and can win. KENS CHIPS (7) got well overdue win last time but the wide draw hurts so a place looks best as it does for MORRIS BROWN (1), GROVE DALE (8), KIAVINO STRIDE (11) and DEADLY ASSASSIN (12) who are more than capable if bring their best.

This is the open class race of the night. BEYOND DELIGHT (10) will relish getting back to mobile conditions and gets every chance to bounce back into the winners list.
