Hobart Race 6

Smithawards Division1

Prize Money: $4,365

RAVING LUNATIC (7) hit the ground running from the squeeze draw with a strong early split last time, paving the way for a 4 length win at this track over 461m in 26.02. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Looks a key chance if runs up to latest figure. INSPECTOR FRANK (5) lit up the clock in 19.37 when winning a Grade 5 over 340m at this track last start. Has the ability and looks a key chance. SILENT PRAYER (2) was big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, weakening late to finish a 2.5 lengths fifth (30.86) over 515m at Launceston. Should be about the mark. AYLA ZORRO (1) is not to be discarded.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior was just edged out when second (30.71) over 515m at Launceston. Has the inside draw and in the mix on her best form.

Started big odds last time but hit the ground running with a slick early split, giving a sight but fading out of it to finish fifth (30.86) at Launceston over 515m. Not far away last start. Right in the mix again.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (26.57) in a Grade 3/4, finishing a 8 length sixth. Goes very well from the draw boasting four places from eight starts. Tough line-up and may struggle.

Eye-catching performance showing plenty of speed to score by 4 lengths in a Grade 5 last start at this track, clocking a fast 26.02 over the 461m trip. Rates a top chance again if runs up to latest.
