Townsville Race 4 - Aluminium Industries Australia

HOPEFULLY FAST (8) turned heads when posting a powerful 28.51 over 498m at this track. Has the ability and looks a key chance again. JACKKNIFED (1) was strongly fancied last time but finished third (29.29), beaten 5.5 lengths. Good beginner assisted by the inside draw. Overdue and is among the main hopes. SOUTHPAW MCGRAW (2) failed to feature last start after settling well back at this track, but prior to that won easily by 5 lengths at this track (28.91) beating Lenard Clyde in a OPEN on February 3. Has performed well from this box with a win and five minor placings to his name from eight starts. Key runner on best form. CAWBOURNE SLICK (4) missed the placings here last start but is well-placed to atone.

Got back last start and could only manage seventh but before that won easily by 5 lengths at this track (28.91) beating Lenard Clyde in a OPEN on February 3. Risky starter, expected to bounce back. Among the chances.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 2 lengths in 28.93, beating Gigantor. Last start finished last in a Grade 3/4 on February 10 over 498m at this track behind Canya Scarlet beaten 10 lengths (29.45). Racing well and has to be included.

Found the going tougher last start when second over 498m at this track. That followed a win two back in 28.95 beating Different Here over 498m at this track. Cannot enthuse on this occasion.

Good performance to win by 5.5 lengths at this track over 498m (28.51) beating Bogie Frank in OPEN on January 13. Boasts a course and distance PB in a scintillating 28.37. Top chance.
