All prices and fluctuations listed are courtesy of Ladbrokes. Prices taken at 14:30.

Race 1

Our Little Ted $13.00 into $9.50. Full Knots Ahead $10.00 into $7.00. Not a great deal of exposed form to work with in the first of the night and punters have nibbled a pair at good each-way prices.

Race 2

Pira Noona $14.00 into $10.00. Cambalache $18.00 into $6.00. A significant move has been for the John Lutrell-trained Cambalache who is yet to show a huge amount in three Tasmanian runs.

Race 3

Sky Fox $4.60 into $4.00. Secret Gold $4.00 into $3.50. Punters have seemingly keyed in on two main winning chances.

Race 4

Kombacy $14.00 into $9.50. Gympins $3.80 into $3.40.  Most runners have shortened with the scratching of Safe Journey, but Kombacy has trimmed up and it appears that Gympins and Gee Gees Darl will vie for favouritism.

Race 5

Luca Bratzi $3.30 into $2.70. Turtles Nest $17.00 into $13.00. Luca Bratzi had good support winning first-up and punters have gone again. Turtles Nest has had speculative support.

Race 6

Apriano $7.50 into $5.50. Balestrand $16.00 into $12.00.  Apriano shortened in the morning while the only horse originally not given much of a chance in Balestrand is now given a hope by some.

Race 7

Lord Smedley $6.00 into $4.50. Our Declaration $4.40 out to $7.00. The favourite Ocean Essence has been solid but a move has come for the topweight. After being well-backed last start, Our Declaration has gone the other way in early betting.

Race 8

Gee Gee Fiorente $6.00 into $5.50. Very little to report in the last of the night.
