Hobart horse betting preview – Feburary 06, 2021

A mammoth ten race card is set down for decision on Sunday afternoon in Hobart for the $250,000 Hobart Cup Day where we are set to see some of Tassie’s best go around throughout the day. With plenty of rain expected in the 48 hours leading up to race day the SOft 5 may be downgraded further to perhaps a Soft 7 or Heavy 8, so runners with Heavy form will be hard to ignore throughout the card. With star gallopers returning it looks to be a thin quaddie, but there is some potential for a few nice plays to round out the weekend on the punt.

The first at Hobart is set to jump at 12:05pm AEDT.


Best Bet: Mystic Journey #5

We are willing to forgive Mystic Journey’s first up mishap when rolled as a $1.10 favourite in the Ladbrokes Stakes. She is one classy mare who continues to amaze throughout her career and we have no doubt she will bounce back with a victory in the listed Thomas Lyons Stakes on Sunday. Her second up form is thoroughly impressive with three wins and a second placed finish from five second up runs and is three wins from four starts on rain affected going. From barrier one she should just take a sit off the leaders heel and at the top of the straight look for ‘Betty’ to power to the line and be too good for this small field.

Next Best: Hela #2

The Scott Brunton trained Hela looks to be a class above the rivals she meets in Strutt Stakes on Sunday afternoon. She is undefeated from four starts and was utterly dominant in the Thousand Guineas at this track back on January 24. The field she meets here is a touch more difficult with Chequerboard from the Maher and Eustace stable making the trip down to Hobart. Despite the added competition she should be too classy for this field over 2100m and there looks to be no queries as to whether she can see out the journey following her last start four length win over 1600m.

Best Value: Mandela Effect #9

Despite going down by a neck in the Summer Cup over the 2200m here on January 24, we are willing to give the classy Mandela Effect another go in the Hobart Cup. Having been competitive at Group 1 level throughout the spring it is hard to imagine that he has not tasted success this campaign continually finding one better than him when it matters most. His second placed finish last start showed he should have no issue in handling the step up to 2500m for the first time in his career, and his proven class should be enough to get him over the line in front for his first win in nearly 12 months.
