Townsville Race 12 - Get On A Good Thing With Bet Nation

HIPPY (5) turned in a better run last time to find a minor placing (22.19) at this track behind Aston Atkins in a Grade 5. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Likely to feature again. APACHE MALT (8) was safely held last time out, finishing seventh at this track over 380m behind Black Falcon (23.04) in a Grade 5. Form from his last run is proving to be solid. Leading chance. PRINCESS TOES (2) has been mixing form lately, hitting the frame two back before finishing sixth (29.63) at this track in a OPEN. Rates a winning chance on best. SURROUNDINGS (1) can improve on an unplaced run here last time out.

Drawn the inside alley. Most recently finished 7th in a Grade 4/5 on February 10 over 380m at this track behind He's Peeking beaten 22 lengths (23.23). Below his best last time but looks well placed here. Worth another chance.

Hasn't shown any early speed lately and tends to spot them a start in his races, The latest effort was a 6 length fifth over 380m at this track. Others have better credentials.

Latest effort finished last in a Grade 5 on February 6 over 380m at this track behind Black Falcon beaten 15 lengths (23.04). Solid formlines coming through that last run. Looks a major player.
