Launceston Race 8 - Thank You Gareth Hall Stakes

GOBSMACKED (3) won well last start by 2.5 metres at this track over 2200m. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Leading hope in a similar race. BOLD COWBOY (4) ran ninth last start at this track over 2200m, beaten 45 metres. Expect him to pose a serious challenge here. ROSE NOIRE NZ (6) last appeared when seventh over 2090m at Hobart four months ago. Expect a better effort to kick off this prep. NO NUKES SKIPPER NZ (5) disappointed last time when sixth over 2200m at this track. Can do a lot better so worth considering.

Didn't do much last time out, 7th (Fr2) over 2200m at this track, beaten 60 m by Ifyoulovemeletmego (2:43.70) on July 10 at $151. Before that 4th (Fr4) over 1609m at Hobart, beaten 10 m by Mira Domina (1:57.80) on June 14 at $31. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.
