Townsville Race 9 - Santa's Elves

COOL BANANAS (2) has a strong record this track and trip with four wins and three placings from 10 starts. Below best last time at this track (28.97) in a OPEN, finishing a 6 length seventh. Rates a leading player. SOUTHPAW MCGRAW (3) has some solid form under his belt and proved too classy last time to win by half a length at this track in a handy 22.04 beating Emgrand Drive. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings two times from four starts. Deserves serious consideration again. MARJORIE MAUDE (4) won by 3.5 lengths last start when getting around this track 380m in a dazzling 21.57. Top win latest and can measure up again. CALL ME ALICE (1) should be in the finish fresh from a five weeks break.
