Hobart Race 1

Dr Graham And Mrs June Mcleod Mdn Plate

Prize Money: $30,000

2yo debutants and the betting moves will be instructive. STAR FORTIAN (9) owns a Hobart trial win and jumps from the paint. Newitt is a key jockey booking and a bold run is on the cards. BELLA CHINKARA (5) trialled well on the same day and Pires is a positive jockey booking. She is set to race well. ARCTIC ATTRACTION (4) presents off a Longford trial win and the in-form Muhch sticks from that. A QUEENS BUZZ (3) just missed in that contest and also deserves consideration. GEEGEES MISSILE (7) won her trial at Longford and she'll carry 53kg with Boxall's claim.
