Townsville Race 9 - Key Motors Amateurs Trophy Hcp

Open class to end the day and at least half a dozen win chances. SMART LEGEND (5) was runner-up fresh in a nice return then wasn't far away in town last time when eighth at Eagle Farm. This is easier and at top now. Gets a chance to atone. ASTRA STAR (8) has been knocking on the door for a while, the latest placing in the Lord Mayors Cup at Rocky. Unbeaten this course and distance and should run well. OUTSMARTED (10) has had four runs for the new yard and is racing well including a win here over 1200m two back. Winning rider back aboard and with the light weight should enjoy a soft run. ARMOUR FORCE (4) was a winner in easier grade last time but won only try course and distance and expected to be very competitive. RUSSIAN MINT (6) is having first try this longer trip but great record here and will give a sight.

Most recently second last of 8 at this track Hcp on April 21 over 1200m, 3 len behind Burraneer Buoy with 60.5kg at $101. Before that sat behind the speed prior to fading 9th of 12 at this track Hcp on March 5 over 1400m, on a slow track; 3.5 len behind Sweet Kisses carrying 61kg at $101. Going okay but has had too many chances.

Most recently 2nd of 9 at Mt Garnet Hcp on May 2 over 1200m, neck behind Seventies Hit carrying 61.5kg at $2. The race before that got back early 5th of 8 at this track Hcp on April 21 over 1200m, 1.5 len behind Burraneer Buoy with 57kg at $5.

Third-up today and won third-up previously. First-up held ground to the line 2nd of 8 at Cairns Hcp on March 26 over 1250m, on rain affected going; nose behind Armour Force with 57.5kg at $6. Last start second last of 9 at Eagle Farm Cl6-Sw on April 18 over 1400m, 3.5 len behind Ten Deep with 60kg at $31. Capable of a better showing. Drops back to country class and gets chance to bounce back.

Most recently 3rd of 7 at Rockhampton Mayors Cup on April 12 over 1200m, slow going 0.8 len behind Pride Of Venus with 55kg at $3.40. The run before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 11 at Gold Coast Cl6-Sw on March 14 over 1400m, on a slow track; 3 len behind Castillian carrying 58.5kg at $9.50. Unbeaten course and distance and overdue for a win.
