Burnie Race 7 - 26/27 Ready, Set, Trot Pace
ULTIMATE GLADIATOR NZ (6) finished fifth last start at Launceston after kicking off the campaign with a string of top-four results. Has ability and can be right in the finish. Tricky draw for SOHO TIGER LILY (10) but she is a player off her win three back at Launceston. OSCAR MAC (1) resumes from a spell of 18 months after closing off last campaign in good form, scoring at his last appearance at Newcastle. Has joined the Smith yard since and was readied with three trials. Draws well so keep safe. SHES NANCY (2) is worth some thought aided by a low draw.

Returns after 18 months in the paddock. Finished off last preparation recording from midfield and won by a head (Sr1) at Newcastle (2:30.70) beating Francos Delight in on April 19 2025 at $5 at the bell was 7th-13.4m on the pegs. Finds a nice race to launch the campaign.

Didn't do much at the last run, 8th (Fr1) over 2090m after showing early pace at Hobart, beaten 60 m by Jay Miller (2:35.90) on October 16 at $81. Before that 6th (Fr3) over 1609m after showing early speed at Hobart beaten 25 m by Kuhio Crest (1:59.80) on October 2 at $31. Cannot enthuse on what we have seen of late.

Recent form below what she is capable of. Last start 8th (Sr1) over 1680m at Launceston, beaten 21 m by County Court Judge (2:02.10) on October 18 at $41. The run prior 10th (Fr3) over 2200m after showing early pace at Launceston, beaten 40 m by Port Run Machine (2:44.70) on October 4 at $13. Can improve sharply without surprising.
