Launceston Race 5 - Ladbrokes Next Multi In Next Up Pace
QUARTEIRA (12) scored on debut two back then did well when he overcame a break to finish third, beaten 5 metres at the latest appearance over 2090m at Hobart. Not drawn the best so may need a 10/10 drive. WINNING BREW (5) was responsible for a very good effort last time over 1609m at Hobart, finishing third and just 1.5 metres from the winner. Meets a comparable field and he can grab a win. SWEETHEART DIOR (4) has been thereabouts of late and is a great chance to break through. Good effort last time out when she finished fourth at this track over 2200m. BRIGHTLY BLAZE (6) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish second at Hobart over 2090m.

Comes here second-up after two weeks. Lacklustre first-up performance when 7th (Fr7) over 1680m after racing wide at this track beaten 25 m by Shibasaki (2:05.60) in 3yo+ on September 13 at $31. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

Resumes today. His previous first-up run was successful when he won by a nose as favourite when quickly away, (Fr1) at Terang (2:04.20) beating Keayang Hungry in on January 26 at $2.60. Prefer later in the prep.

Last start was well beaten into fourth after being driven well back, behind Weona Eagle at this track over 2200m in a 3yo+ on August 23 at $2.90. Performed better the start before with a game effort when 3rd (Fr2) over 2090m at Hobart beaten 9 m by Rocknroll Willow (2:37.20) in 3yo LR on August 16 at $21. Among the leading chances again.

Two back was well beaten into fourth after being driven well back, behind Phlow Jo at this track over 2200m in a 3yo+ on August 7 at $41. Then a handy effort when well beaten into second after a quick start, behind Kenya at Hobart over 2090m on August 21 at $9. Sure to be in the mix.

Returns from the paddock. Her previous first-up run was successful when she won by 20 m when quickly away, (Fr3) at Dubbo (2:09.00) beating Fogwatch in 3yo on December 26 2024 at $2.60. Recent trials will help bring her on but a lack of race-fitness might work against.
