Winner1. DennysonSP $9.50
2nd pick2nd
5Khaleesi's Dream
Inside barrier 5 aligns with track's moderate inside bias; strong Byrne Burke/Trinder stats (15% wins) add appeal. Clear top threat behind leader-suited #3.
3rd pickWon
1Dennyson
Barrier 6 fits inside bias; regular racing (14 days rest) and gear changes (tongue tie on) suggest peaking fitness for 1400m test. Finishing strength suits Launceston's front-3 bias if maps forward; form trajectory improving over raw placings.
Value pick5th
4Bassein
Light weight, strong jockey (16% track strike), and inside draw outweigh poor debut; proxy assessment upgrades debutant via positioning over unproven rivals. Potential to lead/park handy in low-reliability maiden.

Winner4. Colleen's CrownSP $10.00
★ Top pick4th
2Favourite Deputy
Speed map flags as likely leader in moderate-fast tempo suiting on-pace types. Jockey's hot form (30% wins last 20) and stable confidence outweigh lack of wins in maiden company. Top pick despite thin resume per insufficient form rule.
2nd pickWon
4Colleen's Crown
Midfield map viable in moderate-fast tempo on spacious track. Fitness from regular racing edges first-uppers.
3rd pick7th
9Nunkeri
Barrier 2 is elite draw for Launceston's inside bias, potentially offsetting backmarker map. Class drop from open race boosts maiden suitability. Second-up timing ideal after recent 5th; trainer/jockey stats reliable. Not top due to tempo risk vs leaders.
Value pick8th
10Stratovision
Outstanding value via barrier 1 (Launceston inside bias gold) and light weight in maiden. First-up proxy elevates via position over form-limited peers like #7. Backmarker map con but draw may allow forward jump in leader-biased setup.

2nd pick3rd

Barrier 1 is gold on inside-biased Launceston. Class drop helps, light 55kg. Very fast tempo may suit if leads. Jockey form concern but draw/position override. Strong place claims even if win elusive.

Solid track record 4:1-1-1 including recent win. Form 27317 shows consistency. Can push forward despite midfield map in leader-biased setup. Good Good 4 record. Viable threat if exploits draw.

5Taroona
Class drop second up ideal. Very fast tempo will expose weaker speed, suiting finisher. Recent poor run forgivable on class rise.
