Townsville Race 6

Koopa Olsen

Stake: $3,172

RAYMAR FOX (3) Backs up quickly. Competitive effort when 3rd last start at this track. Shows good early pace. Displaying good ability since resuming from a spell. Deserves consideration. AVERAGE RETURN (4) Went to the front and never looked back to win last start at Ballarat in 22.36s over 390m. Will be around the mark at odds. SMOOTH BLAST (1) Finished 4th last time at this venue. Expecting improvement here and gets a favourable draw. Should be swooping on the field late. Looks to be value. MISS ROSALEA (6) On a quick turnaround. Looked good when 2nd last run around here. Will be motoring home late. Each way hopes.

Odds of $11.00 and came in 4th last time at this track. Expecting improvement here and has drawn the rails. Finishes off strongly. Good chance at a nice price.

Backing up quickly. Started at $41.00 and performed below standard when 7th last run at this track. Risky betting proposition.

On a short back up. Tidy run when 3rd last start at this venue. Likely to be well placed early. Looking sharp on the track this campaign. Can take this out.

Started $46.00 and struggled with the pace when 8th last start at this track but will try to take advantage of the box. Looks highly doubtful.
