Townsville Race 11 - Don Hobson Plumbing
MISS TWO STEP (3) has some solid form under her belt and proved too strong last time to win by 3 lengths at this track in a handy 21.79 beating Explosive Jem. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Looks the one to beat. ASTON LUTON (2) has missed the placings at her last couple but was in the money three back when third (22.18) at this track in a Grade 4. Well placed here and can atone this time. CAWBOURNE SLICK (8) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fifth (29.24) in a Free For All at this track. Has a good record at this journey. Has ability and is one of the better chances. FEDERAL BLUE BOY (5) missed the frame latest (23.63) when fourth over 411m at Casino in a Grade 4/5. Has already won three times from this draw.
