Townsville Race 3 - Wooler Racing
ON TARGET (8) boasts a strong record this journey with two wins and two minors from five tries. Was out of placings last time (22.43) at this track in a Grade 6, finishing fifth and beaten 5.5 lengths. Rates a leading player. FIREBALL ERNIE (1) was game in defeat off the inside draw last start, finishing third and beaten one length (22.57) behind So Naive at Darwin. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Can feature again. FOOTLOOSE (5) was a last start winner this course and distance taking a Maiden in 21.90 in one of the quickest times on the card and clocking a personal best as well. Smart winner latest and looks a key chance on that form. HELLO SAILOR (3) with some luck can improve on an unplaced run last time here.

Placed last time (22.57) at Darwin in a Grade 4/5, finishing third and beaten one length. Still a maiden from this draw but has never missed the frame from two starts. With a clean break looks hard to beat.

Could only manage fourth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest when third (22.41) over 380m at this track. Awkwardly drawn and will need the breaks to go his way.

Impressive performance to score by one length in a Maiden last start at this track, recording a good 21.90 over the 380m journey. Expected to push the clock again here.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by one length in 22.24, beating Cocoa Express. Last start finished last in a Grade 6 on August 7 over 380m at this track behind Mizuki Magic beaten 6 lengths (22.64). Not among the main chances this time.

Was strongly supported last time but ran below expectations when fifth over 380m at this track in 22.43. Previous form sound and worth another chance.
