Townsville Race 9

Burdekin Veterinary Services

Stake: -

HOLLYWOOD DIVA (1) was in the placings last time but shapes well for this on her outstanding win the start prior, getting around this track over 380m in 21.68. Rates a top chance if runs up to time two back. ASTON ELIJAH (2) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fifth (22.39) in a Grade 5 at this track. The form out of his last race has been franked. Key runner who gets his chance to atone. HE'S PEEKING (5) goes very well this course and distance starting nine times for three wins and four minors. Missed the frame latest (22.31) when fifth over 380m at this track in a Restricted WIN. Can feature with the right run. AUSSIE AUDI (8) will have admirers after placing last time out.

Won two starts back over 380m at this track. Last start she finished 2nd on November 28 over 380m at this track behind Advika beaten 2.25 lengths (22.02) in a Restricted WIN. Draw likely to suit. Going well and can bounce back to winning form.

Missed the frame latest (22.31) when fifth over 380m at this track in a Restricted WIN. Starts from box 5 for the first time here. Looks a key chance on best form.

Missed the frame last time but prior to that was in the money twice in a row including a narrow loss two back when second (29.14) over 498m at this track. Drawn out wide and will need the right run to feature.
