Hobart tips and results

Our price $4.00 · SP $4.40 · Jackson Radley

Regal Hunter has the speed to sit handy and a soft-track win at Hobart over 2100m. The slow tempo should let him get a soft run in front or second.

Our price $4.00 · SP $6.50 · Troy Baker

Bewicked has run to a good standard in her recent starts and has place form in every start so far. She has the speed to sit just behind Roxy Dancer, which suits her better than leading. She is fit and lightly weighted. Her big risk is a pace battle that blunts her finish, so she is a solid contender but not the main win option.

Our price $5.50 · SP $13.00 · Chloe Wells

Arianna's Gold is a reliable soft-ground performer who has run second three times. She sits behind the speed here and her first-up record is strong. The concern is that she keeps finding one better and has not won in nine tries.

Our price $8.00 · SP $4.20 · Chloe Wells

Ran the race of his life first up when beaten half a length over this trip, and that is the strongest single piece of form in this field. He drops back to a plain maiden and should be fitter, and while he has been a get-back type, his best run came when camped handy.

Our price $14.00 · SP $19.00 · David Pires

An improving stayer from a stable that can do no wrong at present. He produced the best run of his four-start career last time when close up over this trip after being forced to work early, and with no established leader in the race he can roll forward and control a moderate tempo.

Our price $9.00 · SP $18.00 · Anthony Darmanin

He settles near the tail, but he has been hitting the line hard and his placed run over this trip on a soft track at Launceston two starts back would have him in the finish here. Last time he was caught wide and never got a clear crack. The concern is a moderate tempo with a lone leader, so he will need the pace to be genuine to launch over the top.

Our price $6.00 · SP $7.50 · Kirra-Lee Lane

A dependable mare in the right spot for a fast pace.

Our price $8.50 · SP $14.00 · Akimasa Phanthura

The tempo is the main concern, because he will be near the speed, but he has handled that before. First-up is a question mark, but he is overpriced compared with his best form.

Our price $3.30 · SP $2.70 · Erica Byrne Burke

Has the strongest profile on form in this field. She is proven at the track and distance, runs well on soft ground and drops in class after a game second last start.

Our price $5.50 · SP $4.40 · Sam Kennedy

He has few wins for his number of starts and 1600m is not proven, so he fits best as a place-leaning chance behind the top two.

Our price $9.00 · SP $15.00 · Robyn Lynch

Our price $5.50 · SP $4.00 · Erica Byrne Burke

She is a consistent, placed type who is well suited by the Hobart soft surface. The jockey is in top form and rides her often. A midfield position in a moderately run race should give her a sit, but she has only one win from 20 starts and has not finished off well lately.

Our price $6.50 · SP $10.00 · Troy Baker

She is a reliable placegetter with a handy run style that suits the moderate tempo. She was only just beaten at 1420m two runs back. Her wet-track and local records show plenty of placings but no wins, and the recent trend is down. She rates a good place chance and a threat if the leader is pressured.

Our price $12.00 · SP $21.00 · Robyn Lynch

Her best form is on soft ground at Hobart, and she ran second here at her last local start. With 50kg she gets a big weight advantage on the rest. She is a back-marker in a moderately run race, so she needs luck.

Our price $5.50 · SP $4.20 · Erica Byrne Burke

He is the fittest of the main chances and comes in third up after two wins. He has the early speed to get across and sit outside or behind Alpine Thunder. He goes well on soft ground and his jockey is in good form. Barrier 10 is the worry, and his win last start was not the quickest.

Our price $8.00 · SP $12.00 · Troy Baker

She suits these conditions. She is unbeaten in three runs at Hobart, has won both runs at this distance here and has won three of five on soft ground. From barrier 2 she should get the run of the race just behind the leader in a moderately run race. She is stepping up in class, but her recent times say she is good enough.
