Trainer John Keys was off to a flyer with the quinella in the opening event, a 2YO & 3YO 1200m maiden in Hobart on Sunday.

Vibrant Sun will be the sole runner for Mick Price and Michael Kent Jnr in the feature Group 1 races at Morphettville on Saturday.

Anyone who saw Wickham Light get narrowly beaten in Launceston on Good Friday would have thought he was a good thing at his next run and that’s exactly how it panned out in the (1420m) maiden.

Trainer Monica Ryan is predicting a bright future for her 3YO Them’s The Breaks who won her first race in the 1400m maiden at her sixth start in Launceston on Friday afternoon.

While her form on paper doesn’t look that flash, 6YO mare Assaranca has the chance to get back into the winner’s circle when she contests the $50,000 Kevin Sharkie Tasmanian St Leger (2400m) in Launceston on Friday night.
