Launceston Race 3

Lees Orchard Stakes

Stake: $10,476

TRIPLE VINNIES (8) turned in an uncharacteristically poor run most recently when 19 metres away in seventh over 2090m at Hobart. The form prior to that had been solid. Gets a soft run on the inside of the second line but may need luck at some point. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a major role. MADDIS TIGER NZ (1) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 6 metres from the winner in fourth over 1680m at this track. Has the benefit of a good draw. Tackles a similar assignment and he can take care of this line-up. SUGARPOVA (4) comes right into contention after scoring last start by a neck at this track over 1680m. Include in all combinations. OCTAGONISE (2) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 3 metres when resuming at this track over 1680m. Something for the Multiples: SUGARPOVA NZ (4)

Resumes today. At the latest first-up run 6th (Fr3) over 1609m at Menangle, beaten 13 m by Ripp (1:51.60) in NR up to 95 on September 30 2023 at $2.60. Recent trials will help bring him on but a lack of race-fitness might work against.

Looked good last start. Came from midfield and won by a neck when driven back in the field, (Fr5) held up early, at Penrith (2:02.50) beating Dontletfearstopya in NR up to 62 on June 19 at $7 at the bell was 8th-13.06. Two runs back 4th (Fr5) over 1609m at Menangle was 3rd-4.68 at the bell, beaten 4 m by Baltusrol (1:53.40) in NR 58 to 69 on June 10 at $8.50. Not as keen on his chances in this line-up.

Last start was well beaten into seventh after a quick start, behind Watermelon Sugar at Hobart over 2090m in a NR 75 to 105 on June 29 at $2.10. Performed better the start before where he posted a big 11 m win as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr2) at Hobart (2:31.80) beating Custom Harley in NR 65 to 74 on June 15 at $1.50. Pay to forgive him after one bad run; expected to return to form.

Two back was beaten by 6 m finishing fourth after being driven well back, behind Lou Baby at this track over 1680m in a NR 70 to 79 on June 22 at $151. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind Angus Indiana at Hobart over 1609m in a NR 65 to 74 on June 29 at $8.50. Can continue the good form and take this out.

Last start won a big 4 m win after showing early speed, (Fr4) at Hobart (2:33.20) beating Fleetwood Rock in NR 57 to 64 on June 29 at $6.50. Tricky draw but among the main hopes again.
