Townsville Race 4

Burdekin Vet Services

Stake: $2,592

DINOSAUR BONES (3) jumps from box 3 for the first time after scoring at this track (22.46) in a Maiden. Shapes as a top winning chance on latest effort. KEWARRA BEACH (4) was out of the placings last time when eighth at this track (23.37) but scored five back at this track (22.50). One of the better chances. SET OF SISTERS (7) finds it hard to break through. Finished second (22.45) at this track latest and might be close to finding winning form again. Expected to feature again. VERACIOUS VAL (1) placed in a close finish last start - worth some thought.

Most recent effort finished 7th over 380m at this track beaten 12 lengths (22.68) behind Uncommon in a Grade 6 on May 9. Strong form emerging from the last run. Looks one of the chances.

Dropping back in distance from her last start when sixth over 498m at this track. Hasn't shown a lot over this trip to date. This looks too tough.
