Townsville Race 12 - Tony Glover Versatility H
FOOTLOOSE (2) bolted in last time, scoring by 8 lengths in slick time (21.88) to take a Grade 5 in a new PB this course and distance. Top win latest and looms as the one to beat again. HARPER SPILLER (7) was well supported last time but could only manage second (21.94), beaten half a length. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and two minor placings to her credit. Winning chance. LOVELY MADELINE (6) stalked lead from an outside box last start before finishing third (22.05) at this track in a Grade 5 over 380m. Has good speed so she should be prominent despite the draw. Expecting another good run. TRY TO RELAX (4) drops in distance and is worth considering.

Tends to be fast away. Produced a good effort last start to finish fourth in a Grade 5/6 on October 13 over 498m at this track behind Fireball Ernie, beaten 1.75 lengths (29.20). Some good form emerging from that last run. Among the chances.

Looks close to another win after her success on September 22 at this track over 498m. Last start was third over 380m in 22.05, behind Wong Glass. Solid showing expected.

Went down narrowly in a Grade 5 at this track latest when a half a length second but did record a solid 21.94 over the 380m journey. Has the ability and looks a key chance again.
