Comments: Another day where every track on the eastern seaboard is rain affected, which creates lots of ruffies to consider today. Rockhampton 6-2 Luna Lass has beaten most of her competitors home in two previous runs so she would have to be a good chance in this. Werribee 7-3 Kitz Lane got home nicely to win a 3YO staying event at MV last time out. These Restriced races can be complete lotteries so I'm not at all interested in the even money served up on the morning line.
Black Book: Launceston 1-2 Geronimo Stilton was one of our ruffies a few weeks back. He settled midfield and ran to the line OK, beating home 8 of his rivals, to finish 6th beaten 5L in a performance that was an improvement on his previous form and belied his 50/1 price. I've made a note to watch him next time out in a weak Maiden field, which he gets here. It looks like most TABs are not including race 1 in their coverage so Tote Tasmania is the only option.
Bowraville: If you haven't seen a race at Bowraville then you're in for a treat. I don't know if it's the smallest track in Australia but with a circumference of just 1200m it would have to go close. Races are run over 1000m, 1370m (they start at the top of the straight and do a full lap!), 2000m and 2200m (they go around twice!). You sometimes see a jockey 'work out' how to ride the track by taking off early. The most successful jockeys at Bowraville today are P Graham, R Spokes and M Dolendo.
