GOING: G

SMITHAWARDS PACE 2090m

Track: GOOD   Clouds (Max: 13)    

HUNGRY HIPPO (12) is a three-year-old son of Stay Hungry on debut for the powerhouse Emma Stewart stable. Has had one trial for this yard, winning at Terang. Draws on the second line but looks very well placed to kick off with a win. JILLIBY RANDAL (7) comes to Tasmania having placed in his two Victorian starts so far. Draws deep but doesn't look far off a win. CUZZY JUNIOR (10) resumes after ten weeks having raced just once for a solid third at Launceston. No favours expected from this draw but is likely to have developed further with maturity. MEL RUSTY KITA (4) is a long-time maiden but could be close to breaking through after placing in his last two outings here.
