Townsville Race 2 - Ladbrokes Punter Assist Hcp (60)

The well-related COPPABELLA ROAD (4) (half to Listed winner and Group 3 placed Catoggio) has been on the doorstep of another victory finishing runner-up in three of his past four and this is not an overly strong affair. Only needs some luck navigating from the wide draw to be playing a major role in the outcome. GOLDEN OCTAVIAN (2) goes well for rider Wiggins who has three wins and three placings from ten steers and is drawn to get all the favours from the inside marble. Looms as the main danger. MAXIMUM POWER (1) has been just behind the placegetters of late and will be rock-hard fit for this. Top-three credentials. OFFICE POLITICS (5) saves his best form for this sprint journey and has to be included in calculations. GALBALAN (3) strips fitter second-up from the spell and looks one for the exotics players.

Previously second-up eased back early on 10th of 13 at Wangaratta Bm64 on May 2 over 1000m, 7 len behind Runlikenencryption carrying 61kg at $151. Rates highly and can do much better this time.

At the latest run sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 7 at Bowen Cl3-Sw on April 11 over 1000m, on a slow track; head behind Red Hot Lizzie carrying 59.5kg at $10. The run before that gave a sight but was run down late 2nd in a small field at Emerald Bm50 on April 4 over 1000m, long-neck behind High Security with 61.5kg at $4.80. Honest galloper who is a live chance.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. First-up from last on the turn second last of 10 at this track 0 - 60 on March 31 over 1000m, 3.5 len behind Lowlands with 52.5kg at $101. Second-up ran last in a small field at this track Hcp on April 14 over 1000m, 9 len behind Russian Mint carrying 54.5kg at $101. Can't recommend on that form, looking to others.
