Townsville Race 5

Aussie Pet & Animal Travel

Stake: $3,080

ACE DIVA (2) goes very well at the course and distance with three wins and a placing from five starts. Below best last time at Rockhampton (31.08) in a Grade 5, finishing a 16 length seventh. Looks suited here and rates on top. SHINE ON BRUISER (1) is a talented type and proved too classy last time to win by 5 lengths at this track in a handy 21.79 beating Flying In Style. Safe beginner who draws ideally on the inside. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of that last-start win. HUEY LUEY (7) has mixed form recently, finishing fourth (29.32) in a Grade 4/5 at this track latest but did run well two back when in the frame. Safe beginner but wide box to overcome and will need some luck. This looks easier and expected to improve sharply. MOLLY EMGRAND (8) looks a top-three chance while fresh.

Eye-catching performance to post a big 5 lengths victory in a Grade 5 last start at this track, recording a blistering 21.79 over the 380m journey. Expected to push the clock again here.

Last couple of starts have been ordinary but she does have good record over this track and distance. Strong form emerging from the that last run. Leading chance.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 3.5 lengths in 21.92, beating Helsinki Rico. Last start finished 5th on February 28 over 380m at this track behind Federal Bullet beaten 10 lengths (22.33) in a P5. Hard to have this time.

Won two starts back at this track over 380m in 22.11. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when eighth over 407m at Rockhampton at Grade 4 level. Look for improvement. Not out of it.

Surprised two starts back at this track to win by 4 lengths in 22.28, beating Lusty Lovin'. Last start finished 7th over 380m at this track beaten 8 lengths (22.97) behind Hara's Nelly in a Grade 4 on February 25. Not likely to feature on this occasion.

Finished off last campaign with a fourth (29.32) in a GR 4/5 at this track 11 weeks ago. Makes plenty of appeal while fresh.

Comments

Missed the frame when sixth (22.60) at this track at last run and returns here after a 12 weeks break. Has never been out of the money from three first-up runs. Looks a key chance fresh.
