Launceston Race 9 - Impress Print Pace
JUST LIKA DREAM (4) has been racing well of late. Finished second at her latest appearance over 1609m at Hobart, beaten 4.5 metres. Tackles a similar assignment and she can grab that well-deserved win. ROSE NOIRE NZ (8) had to call on all reserves to salute last time out over 2090m at Hobart, getting home by just 1.1 metres. Drawn to enjoy a cosy run but might need things to go her way at some stage. Finds a tougher race but another win is on the cards. CHEYS ANGEL (2) finished ninth two runs ago then broke and finished a distant last over 2090m at Hobart at the latest appearance. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Facing a tougher assignment but a big run is possible if her race manners improve. IFYOULOVEMELETMEGO (5) is in the mix if she can recapture the form from two starts back that saw her finish second over 2200m at this track.

Fair performance when beaten by 5.5 m finishing fourth behind Gobsmacked at Hobart over 1609m on September 11 at $5.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4.5 m finishing second behind Shades Of Silk at Hobart over 1609m on September 20 at $4.80. Winning claims.

Last start 6th (FT) over 2090m at Hobart, beaten 7 m by John Vincent (2:40.50) on September 20 at $12. At his previous start solid effort despite getting well back, when 2nd (FT) over 2090m at Hobart, beaten 1.3 m by Sapphire Gambler (2:39.10) on September 11 at $10. Better than the last run suggests; set to make amends.
