IT was a mixed bag of results for Tasmanian horses at today's Group Three $225,000 AAMI Hobart Cup (2400m) barrier draw.
Sixteen horses will line up in Sunday's feature staying race, with 11 Tasmanian-trained gallopers taking on five from interstate -- including four Victorians and the Gai Waterhouse trained Power Broker from New South Wales.
Top weight Geegees Blackflash (Peter Mertens), who returned to his best last Sunday in the Jockey Club Cup (2200m), will have to contend with barrier 14, while The Cleaner (Jason Maskiell) will start from 11.
Dream Pedlar (Craig Newitt) has barrier three in his fourth attempt to win the Hobart Cup after finishing third in 2009 and 2010 and fifth in 2011.
Last year's Launceston Cup winner Prevailing drew favourably in barrier seven, with stablemate Success Dostta is alongside in six.
Broadmarsh contenders Norsqui (Chris Symons) and Geejayhaitch (Jason Lyon) drew barriers eight and 12 respectively.
The Patrick Payne trained Fieldmaster (Michelle Payne) will have to overcome the outside barrier (16), while fellow Victorian Westsouthwest (Dwayne Dunn) is in 15.
Hurdy Gurdy Man (Glen Boss) started favourite ($1.90f) in last Sunday's Terang Cup (2150m), however could only manage third with his jockey (Damian Lane) suggesting that the horse didn't handle the track.
The Darren Weir trained stayer drew ideally in barrier one and is proven at a mile and a half.
