The Juanita McKenzie-trained four-year-old not only accounted for some smart horses - including a Tasmania Cup winner and Devonport Cup winner - he blitzed them and had the race in his keeping on the home turn.

He won officially by 11.9m from Illegal Immigrant with No Spring Secrets a half head away third.

Cool Water Paddy had enough gate speed to lead from the pole, which didn't surprise driver Ricky Duggan.

"I thought he had the speed to lead - he usually draws the second row but, the couple of times he has drawn the front, he's come out pretty good," Duggan said.

However the $1.70 favourite didn't hold the lead for long.

Call Me Hector took over at the bell and, shortly after, Duggan moved to the death to avoid being pocketed.

He regained the lead from Call Me Hector before the home turn and shot away.

Duggan, not known for making big statements, has conservatively described Cool Water Paddy as "a nice little horse."

The three codes of racing were all involved when Written in Silk made a winning debut in the $12,000 Launceston Belmont.

The filly is prepared by leading harness trainer Ben Yole for greyhound trainer Anthony Bullock and thoroughbred trainer Barry Campbell's daughter Jess.

Written In Silk, by Sportswriter from Mon Soie, was a $20,000 purchase at last year's Tasmanian yearling sale at Carrick.

She is the first foal of the dam who won seven races in Tasmania including the Devonport Belmont.

After opening in the red with tab.com.au, Written In Silk eased to start at $2.80 but her supporters didn't have too many concerns.

Mark Yole drove her like a good thing, happy to sit in the death before going on to record a comfortable 10m win.

Yole made it an early driving double when he came from last to win the Rating 75-84 Pace on his own stable runner Gotta Good Reason.

It was a similar story in the Rating 60-65 Pace when Beam Up Chopper came from last to beat Prosecution Witness and Krafty Boy.

Driver John Walters produced a masterly display, trailing Prosecution Witness in the three-wide line from the bell before working into the clear at the top of the straight.

All the other credit belonged to Bridport trainer Kate MacLeod as she and her family not only own the gelding but also bred him.
