Launceston Race 9

Fast Minardi At Stud Division1

Stake: $5,431

BLACKBRUSH BILL (1) returned a better run last time, finishing in the money (30.29) at this track behind Carissa's Baby in a Special conditions race. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Can measure up this time. NITRO ROCKET (4) was checked in the run and safely held when sixth (30.67) in a Grade 6 over 515m at this track. Has the ability and can atone with the right run. XARA PRICE (2) has a fair record and proved too strong last time to win by a nose at Hobart in a handy 19.51 beating Reality Einstein. Capable of going well again. JORJI'S JAZZ (3) was out of the money at this circuit last start but can bounce back.

Comes off a (19.51) win last time, scoring by a nose in a Restricted WIN over 340m at Hobart. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and two minors. Looks suited here and can measure up on best.

Drawn the outside box and could be suited with some luck. Goes ok at this track and distance but recent form not good enough, not keen, needs to lift.
