FLORENCE GLASS (7) missed the frame in a in tougher company then last time in a more suitable affair scored by a long neck over 1m at Launceston. Looks well placed to feature in the finish. IBUTHO (2) finished out of the money two starts back then he settled well back and was beaten 9 lengths when sixth in a 1m2 1/2f contest at this track two weeks ago. Likely improver with strong prospects. AL MAXIMUS (1) was in contention on the bend and finished third last start over 1m2 1/2f at this track, beaten 1.75 lengths. Placed to advantage so expect a big run. WHOLESOME (6) performed above expectations last time over 1m at Launceston, finishing a head from the winner in second after starting at huge odds. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Deserves respect on best figures.
