Townsville Race 5 - Merry Christmas
BOGIE FRANK (7) was below best last time at this track (29.34) in a Grade 4, finishing a 11 length fifth. Has already won two times from this draw. Looks a leading chance on best. ANNA RUMBLE (3) returned a better run last time, finishing in the money (22.03) at this track behind Time Passages in a Grade 5. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings three times from six starts. Can measure up. MERCURIAL DANCER (1) comes off an average performance last start when eighth at this track over 498m behind Pink Car (29.53) in a Grade 4/5. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. EMGRAND FLASH (2) will give backers a sight.

Could only manage sixth last time but the start prior hit the frame at double figure odds when second (22.40) over 380m at this track. Has a low draw and can measure up.

In the money last time at this track (22.03) in a Grade 5, finishing a 5 length third. Goes very well from the draw boasting three places from six starts. Key chance and should go close.

Is back up to 498m which has been an issue in the past. Last appeared when fifth over 380m at this track a week ago. Draw will be an advantage capable of taking this out.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage sixth last time out over 380m at this track. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.
