Mt Isa Race 5 - Open Plate
NAPOLEON STRIKE (2) scored at this track last time out with 2.75 lengths in reserve at the end of 1200m. Yet to miss the frame in three starts over this course and distance. Should be prominent from the outset. Leading contender. CASINO LORD (1) lines up for the first time since September 6. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1000m at this track. Has ability and should be right in the finish. PERVADE (4) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing fourth at this track over 1200m. Nicely placed to turn things around. BLAZERRO (3) finished 17 lengths adrift in fifth at this track over 1200m at his latest appearance. The least attractive option in the small line-up.
