Our Hobart Best Bets for Tuesday’s meeting.
Key Comments
The track is a Soft 5 and the rail is out 8 metres the entire circuit. David Pires has some nice rides.
Best Bet
La Virago (Hobart Race 5 No. 8)
She was disappointing when fresh, finishing 4th behind the impressive Thespian Waters. She should have improved from that and will get every chance from the inside barrier. The one they have to beat.

Best Value Bet
Global Awareness (Hobart Race 6 No. 8)
This 4YO mare resumes from a 20 week spell and is having her first race for trainer John Keys. She looked promising in her first preparation, ending with a win over 1600m at Hobart. She won a recent trial and looks a nice each-way chance.
