Townsville Race 11 - Starline Express At Stud
STARRY RAYMAR (7) is an accomplished sprinter with a great record at the short dashes. Filled the minor placings over 457m at Q Lakeside (25.94) in a Restricted WIN but is better placed at the shorter trip here. Has a strong record at this distance including four wins. Solid formlines coming through his last run. Can find winning form. LUCKY FIREBALL (2) goes very well here starting six times for two wins and two minors. Placed last time (22.37) at this track in a Grade 5, finishing second and beaten 0.8 lengths. Among the main chances. SHIAN PEACHES (1) was safely held in tougher company last start at this track, but prior to that won by one length at this track (22.00) beating Good Odds Raven in a Grade 4 on February 24. Cannot be left out. CAWBOURNE SLICK (8) was out of the frame here most recently but can atone.

Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 380m. Last start finished 5th on March 3 over 380m at this track behind Moonshine Magic beaten 9 lengths (22.42) in a Grade 4. Looks well placed and should prove hard to beat.

Quickly away at this track two runs back then again settled forward and finished second at this track last start over 380m from this same draw. Boasts a course and distance PB in a scintillating 21.58. Top chance.

Was out of the placings last time at this track but prior to that had been racing consistently, notching three minors in a row. Aided by a low draw but looks tested this line up.

Missed the frame last start when a 6 length fifth (22.16) at this track. Previous form sound including a win three back at this track. Has ability but this tough and looks a place chance at best.

Impressive performance to score by a nose in a Grade 5 last start at this track, clocking a fast 21.95 over the 380m trip. Harder here but warrants respect on latest.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when third (22.28) over 380m at this track. Has to overcome a wide draw but capable of a better result.
