Townsville Race 12

Billy Rudd 5Th Grade H

Stake: $2,640

JUNGLE ON FIRE (3) comes into this as a quickest on the card winner last time at Geelong, scoring by 2.25 lengths (26.12). Safe beginner and drawn well close to the inside. Looks the one to beat. IS THAT YOU (1) turned in a solid run last start over 380m at this track finishing 4th and beaten only 5 lengths (22.36). Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings five times from eight attempts. Expected to feature in the finish. BALT'S SHADOW (7) was safely held last time out, finishing sixth at this track over 380m behind Tipsy Wobbler (22.58) in a Grade 5. Leading chance. FINGERS ARRAWARA (8) gets a chance to improve on an unplaced run at his latest outing at this circuit.

At the last start finished last in a Grade 4/5 on November 12 over 380m at this track behind Huey Luey beaten 15 lengths (22.74). Capable of a good showing.

Strong performance after racing just off the speed to win by 2.25 lengths at Geelong over 460m (26.12) beating Paw Maddox in Mix 6/7 on October 8. That last win was in the quickest time on the card. Stick with him.
