Townsville Race 7 - Betnation.com.au
TEX GUNN (1) is a well performed sprinter ideally suited at the shorter trips. Was a strong winner last time (21.63) over 380m at this track in a Free For All. Form at the trip excellent including 12 wins. Has a strong record out of this box with three wins and a minor placing from five starts. Great chance again. LORD EDDIE (2) finished fourth last time at this track but could not have been more impressive before that in his excellent 21.68 win at this track over 380m. Has the ability and can find winning form again. COLONEL'S RANGER (7) has a strong record here with six wins and four placings from 14 starts. Below best last time at this track (22.13) in a Free For All, finishing a 7 length sixth. Makes strong appeal on best. GIDGEE BUG (3) has been freshened and can sneak into the frame on his best form.

Eye-catching performance to score by 3 lengths in a Free For All last start at this track, recording an exceptional 21.63 over the 380m journey. Can measure up again if runs up to that effort.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage sixth last time out over 380m at this track. Hard to entertain this time.

Got back last start and could only manage fifth but before that won by a nose at this track (22.35) beating Organised Kaos in a Grade 3 on October 26. Doesn't profile as a likely winner.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 2 lengths in 21.56, beating Tex Gunn. Last start finished 6th on November 3 over 380m at this track behind Tex Gunn beaten 7 lengths (22.13) in a Free For All. Below her best last time but looks well placed here. Worth another chance.
