Townsville Race 7 - New Park Suit Hire (Bm65)
Looks a competitive contest with a lot of these runners in form. HANGIN' AROUND (4) is one of them absolutely smashing them by six lengths last time out at Cairns. Wiggins was on board for that demolition and sticks. Best form puts him right in this. The well-related CHARTWELL (6) (half to Listed winner Home Ground) has only missed a place once in five starts around this circuit and is drawn to get all the favours from the inside alley. Cannot be discounted. TURN BIRD (5) has strung three wins together on the bounce and is racing with a lot of confidence. In the mix again. WICKLOW LASS (7) saves her best form for her home circuit here and rates a genuine top-three hope. READ 'EM AND WEEP (9) best of the rest.

Second run back. First-up after five months sat on the pace before fading 7th of 10 at this track Bm70 on April 4 over 1200m, slow going 4 len behind Tycoon Beau carrying 59.5kg at $26. Previously second-up 10th of 12 at this track Cl6 on July 7 over 1200m, slow going 4.5 len behind Chickerartie carrying 57kg at $26. Looking elsewhere for the winner.

At the latest run rolled along in front before being edged out 2nd of 7 at this track Bm55 on April 15 over 1400m, 1.5 len behind Turn Bird carrying 56.5kg at $8.50. The run before that set the pace for much of the race 2nd of 13 at this track Bm55 on April 4 over 1200m, slow going 1.3 len behind Turn Bird with 56kg at $19. Going okay but looks tested in this line-up.
