Innisfail Race 1

Backpacker Shack Mdn Plate

Stake: $11,000

NAPOLEON STRIKE (4) is a three-start maiden who finished fifth at his most recent appearance over 1000m at Orange. This looks a nice race so expect him to be right in the finish. CHARGIN' (3) just missed last time when a neck away in second at Bowen over 1000m. Among the main chances. KEEPTHEWOLVESAWAY (1) returned from a spell two-and-a-half weeks ago when he was beaten 3 lengths into fourth over 950m at Cairns. Finds a suitable assignment and can get the job done. DON'TLEAVEMENOW (5) is a eight-start maiden who resumed from a spell last start and was beaten 4 lengths when fifth over 950m at Cairns. Should progress from that last outing and poses a genuine threat.
