Hobart Race 7 - Sweet Lou @ Woodlands Stud Pace
WE SALUTE YOU (5) comes here just three days after finishing second beaten a neck over 2090m at this track. Ideally placed and is sure to prove tough to beat again. ANOTHER NIEN (9) recorded a strong performance last time when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 2090m here. This is a nice drop in grade so he is a major player. WAZZA (8) deserves consideration after his last-start fourth when resuming over 2090m at this circuit three days ago. Strips fitter now. IRON CLAD (6) is the best of the rest after finishing third over 2579m at this course last time out. One for the exotics players.

Backing up quickly since being well beaten this track over 2090m, 3 days ago and two back 4th (Fr4) over 2200m after showing early speed at Launceston beaten 11 m by Tambros Tilly (2:42.00) on September 13 at $13. Hard to have.

Backs up 3 days after failing to impress last start; 10th (Sr4) over 2090m at this track, beaten 30 m by Vivid Dream (2:37.60) on September 20 at $16. Showed ability the outing before when he posted a big 5 m win when driven back in the field, (Fr5) held up early, at this track (2:39.00) beating Rocknallovertheworld in on September 11 at $3.70. In the mix if on-song.

Fair performance when beaten by 5.5 m finishing second behind Tambros Tilly at Launceston over 2200m on September 13 at $4.60. Then a handy effort when a close second behind John Vincent at this track over 2090m on September 20 at $2.35. Worth following up.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 3.5 m fourth behind Ray Dan at this track over 2090m last start. Before that was beaten 3 metres second at Launceston over 1680m same class on April 12. Open to sharp improvement.

Two back was fifth behind Waves Of Chance at Launceston over 1680m on September 13 at $4.33. Then a handy effort when a close third after being driven well back, behind Ray Dan at this track over 2090m on September 20 at $6. Major player.
