LAUNCESTON PACING CLUB FREE FOR ALL 2200M
This is the Free For All for the night. STAR CHAMBER (4) resumed last week when chasing home the star mare El Jays Magic in a slippery last quarter. He will be fitter for the run and he may prove too quick at the business end so is the hardest to beat. ALL I CAN BE (5) has done a great job since arriving to Tasmania and he did hit the line strongly in that same race to run second. He has drawn a touch wide but if gets the right trip looks a great bet at around the $4 mark. RIVERBOAT JASPER (3) is another smart type who was very brave when resuming. He draws inside his major rivals and with that run under his belt he can beat them.

He resumes here as a three year old so may prove to watch the market. The remaining runners will find this a bit tough.
