1. Gee Gee True Story | Only just missed in driving finish last start at Hobart when fresh and has won four times at Launceston before. Big rise in weight. Cannot entertain. |
2. Bandinelli | Returns from 10 week let-up and looking to make it four in a row after another win at Launceston last start. Comes to hand quickly. Strong hope. |
3. Gee Gee Queen Bee | Winner despite being unwanted in the betting last start at Launceston and in strong form with two wins from six attempts this campaign. Goes well at the track. At least a place chance here. |
4. Julius | First-up after 17 week break and won all previous races as a favourite. Drops in weight. Hard to go past. |
5. Tezlah | Finished five lengths back last start at Launceston when fresh and gets the winkers on for the first time. Ran eighth at Ballarat when last second-up. Outsider. |
6. Gee Gees Cricket | Resumes after spell of 21 weeks and has shown potential in trials. Returns to shorter trip. Place chance. |
7. Zagame | Ran fifth last start at Launceston but drops 4kg from last run. 3kg claim should help but seems unlikely. |
