Townsville Race 5

Garbutt Self Service Store

Stake: $2,592

LITTLE CHATTER (1) turned in a better run last time to find a minor placing (29.18) at this track behind Showtime Morris in a Restricted WIN. Although beaten ran one of the quickest times on the card last start. One of the leading chances. SET OF SISTERS (2) turned in a better effort at this track last start, finishing second behind Non Stop Whiskey (21.90) in a Grade 6. Expected to feature again. VELOCITY SMOLDER (4) will take beating coming off a respectable 21.94 win at this track over 380m. Harder here but expected to measure up. EMPTY SKY (7) must be among the chances on the last run here.

Was edged out last time at this track when beaten just a neck but did clock a fast 21.90 over the 380m trip. Looms as the one to beat this time.

Made an impressive debut when hit the ground running from an outside draw with a fast early split, paving the way for a nose win at this track over 380m in 21.94. Looks promising and rates on top here on debut effort.

Won two starts back at this track over 380m in 22.17. Followed that up with a minor placing over 380m at this track at Grade 6 two weeks ago. Thereabouts of late and can feature with the right run.
