Verdict

LADY GALADRIEL (4) had been threatening a win and got the job done from the pace in a 66 at Launceston as a $3.2F. Has the inside gate today and keeps the top hoop. Has here first try on the synthetic but is well placed to go back-to-back. Stablemate THOROS OF MYR (1) led well supported in a 76 at Launceston first up and looked a run short. Has won 2/3 second-up and is a leader drawn low. Flies this course and distance, and with the handy 4lbs claim in easier looks the threat. ADACHI (6) resumed in the Lady Galadriel race, beaten 2.4L. She maps well and has more to give. In the mix. BOLD INSTINCT (3) keeps racing well, and the 7lbs claim brings him into it. WHIPPIN PICCADILLY (5) nest best off a solid placing here.
