Townsville Race 5 - Place A Srm With Bet Nation
CHEAP REALITY (4) was strong over this course and distance last time despite filling the minors, finishing 2.25 lengths behind Crab Pot in 28.87 and recording a new PB here. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. FEDERAL ROCKET (1) settled midfield in the run and boxed on to finish there when 4th (22.09) at this track. Key runner on best form. RACCOON RUSTY (2) finds it hard to break through. Has been in the money the last three starts, the latest when second (29.13) at this track. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings two times from four attempts. Likely to be in the finish again. GROUND CONTROL (3) cannot be ruled out.

Won two starts back over 498m at this track. Last start he finished 4th over 380m at this track beaten 4 lengths (22.09) behind No More Beer in a Grade 5 on August 21. Draw likely to suit. More than capable and has to be included.

Struggling to break through but racing consistently, finishing in the minors four starts on end. Last time out flew the lids with a fast early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when third (31.62) at Darwin over 537m. Capable of a good showing.

In the money last time at this track (28.87) in a OPEN, finishing a 2.25 lengths third. Has never missed the frame from four starts from the draw, including a win. Makes strong appeal.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 4.5 lengths in 28.67, beating Wyndra All Smoke. Last start finished 6th on August 18 over 498m at this track behind Crab Pot beaten 10 lengths (29.42) in a OPEN. Likely to find this too tough.
