Hobart Race 1 - Smithawards Pace
EVERYTHING BUT THE (1) went well to finish second two starts ago then recorded a commanding victory last time out, scoring by 6 metres over 2200m at Launceston. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meets a comparable field so he can keep the ball rolling. CARMEN EMJAY (3) was 1.5 metres away in second at Launceston over 1680m last start at her first run back from a spell. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Primary contender in a similar race. OH NO NEVER AGAIN (4) is looming as a real threat after a better effort last start, finishing third at this track over 2090m. ROLLWITHARTY (2) ended last prep with a fourth at this track over 2090m ten weeks ago. Capable of a forward showing while fresh.

In good form recently. Last start won by 6 m after showing early speed, (Fr1) at Launceston (2:41.90) beating Can Feel The Fury in on June 7 at $3.10. Draws the inside and is clearly the one to beat again.

Second-up here following a spell. Good run despite getting well back, when 2nd (Fr6) over 1680m at Launceston, beaten 1.5 m by Rocky Stride (2:01.70) in 3yo+ on May 29 at $13. One of the main contenders.

Two back was well beaten into sixth after showing early speed, behind Unmatched at Launceston over 2200m in a 4yo+ GH on May 24 at $5. Then a handy effort when a close third behind Ashante Queen at this track over 2090m on May 31 at $3. Likely to play a major role.

Seven-year-old gelding showed improvement last start. 3rd (Fr4) over 2200m after being wide early at Launceston beaten 4 m by Onehandonebounce (2:43.30) on June 7 at $6.50. The run before was not as impressive when well beaten into tenth after being driven well back, behind Mista Eagle at this track over 1609m on May 31 at $26. Not as keen on his chances in this line-up.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind We Salute You at this track over 2579m on May 31 at $31. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.2 m finishing second behind Onehandonebounce at Launceston over 2200m on June 7 at $7.50. Among the better chances.
