Townsville Race 8 - Aussie Pet & Animal Travel
LOVELY MADELINE (8) has missed the frame the last couple but was a Grade 5 winner three back (21.99) at this track over 380m. Better than latest and can atone here. OUCH MY FRANKY (3) had been racing well with a Grade 5 win three back then placed next time before missing the frame latest at this track. This looks easier and expected to improve sharply. FEDERAL TOMMY (6) turned in a plain performance last time when sixth at this track over 498m behind Gidgee Bug (30.58) in a Grade 4/5. Placed at his previous run. Shapes as one to consider. HIPPY (7) can play a role in the finish without surprising.

Strong performance to win by 2.5 lengths at this track over 380m (22.28) beating Shine On Bruiser in Mix 5 on March 13. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.

In the money last time at this track (29.30) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 7 length third. Super consistent from the draw with a win and two places from three starts. Tough line-up and may struggle.

Missed the frame last start when a 3.5 lengths fourth (22.14) at this track. Previous form sound including a win three back at this track. Best figures puts him right in this and well worth another chance.

Got back last start and could only manage fifth but before that won by 1.5 lengths at this track (22.36) beating Stormy Rose in a Mix 5 on March 6. Prefer to watch at this stage.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when second (28.85) at big odds over 498m at this track. Has to overcome a wide draw but is worth plenty of thought.

Was out of placings last time (22.54) at this track in a Grade 4/5, finishing fourth and beaten 9 lengths. Yet to win but has placed two times from this draw. Expected to be in the finish.
