Launceston Race 2 - Go Racing Good Friday @ Ladbrokes Racing Centre Mdn Plate
CALIFORNIA FLYER (6) has switched from a Victorian stable on a 16-day return. Was beaten 1.4L at Caulfield Heath when last seen and will have taken improvement from that. The speedy galloper can use the inside barrier and should have these covered. DUBAI AFFAIR (7) was heavily bet to win at Hobart, resuming off a long spell, but folded up after racing handy. She's been desperately unlucky not to have broken through and a top hoop sticks aboard. Sharp improvement is likely. UNFILTERED (5) was lining up for just the second time, beaten 1.5 lengths this track/trip. Did a good job placing prior here on debut and has a handy 2kg claim. He'll be in the money. MCVEIGH (4) was a big Longford trial winner but got too far back on debut. Has been freshened and a much better effort is likely.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. First-up rolled along in front before being edged out 3rd of 11 at Terang Mdn-Sw on February 20 over 1206m, 2.75 len behind Burleigh carrying 57.5kg at $3.80. Second run from a spell sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 7 at Caulfield Heath Mdn-Sw on March 4 over 1000m, 1.4 len behind Absolute Power carrying 57.5kg at $7.50. She should be in this for a long way.

Second run back. Comes off a 40-day let-up. First-up after 10 months struggled in the run home; 7th of 10 at Hobart Mdn-Sw on February 8 over 1200m, on a slow track; 6 len behind Tribal Council carrying 56.5kg at $2.25. Previously second-up 3rd of 14 at this track Mdn-Sw on January 15 2025 over 1420m, on a slow track; 4 len behind Gems Eagle with 55kg at $2.45. Fitter and can do a lot better.
