Launceston Horse Racing Tips Fri 16/10/26
Soft 5 at Launceston with the rail out 6m the…

Cowra’s rated a Soft 5 with fine skies overhead, so the ground should keep drying through the afternoon and there’s no real excuse in the going. That means it comes down to price and where the value is, not who handles the wet. Six races on the card and just two we’re keen on. Hell Of A Show is the one we love in Race 5, drawn 4 in a big field of 18, and $6.50 looks overs for a horse that can land midfield and finish over the top of them.
4. Kingdom Heart $4.00
Barrier 2 · Off Pace · Soft pace
The favourite’s $1.75 and that does nothing for me. Over a short 950m #4 Kingdom Heart draws the inside, keeps hitting the line with a run of placings, and Billy Cray can time his finish from back off them. #5 Lady Giovanna has to hold on up front at a cramped quote. At $4, I’d rather have the one closing late.
2. Hell Of A Show $6.50
Barrier 4 · Midfield · Soft pace
#2 Hell Of A Show draws in at gate 4 and knows how to finish over the top when the tempo lets him. The favourite sits in the same part of the race a gate wider, so I won’t take $3.70 on the same shape. Give me the $6.50 with the better draw. Take him to win.
