Townsville Race 1 - Key Motors Mdn Hcp
EXCEEDINGLY BRAZEN (4) has been just behind the placegetters in both runs since joining the new stable and looks to be building up to a maiden victory. Strikes a very winnable contest here and should be right there when the whips are cracking. Former NSW galloper DARK FAE (8) is first-up here for the new barn but is sure to find this easier than what she faced down south. Revved up for this with a recent trial victory and can run a big race while fresh. A LITTLE XTRA (1) returned in good order with a close-up second at Cairns and will have come on with that run now under the belt. Top-three conveyance. BOOM BUNNY (5) has placed four of six over this track and trip and will be rock-hard fit for this. In the mix. SENSEI GIRL (6) next in line.

Third race start. First start ran last of 7 at Innisfail 2yo+ Mdn-Sw on December 6 over 900m, 11 len behind Rising Ruby carrying 58kg at $6. Returned from break tried to lead throughout but was claimed late 2nd of 10 at Cairns 3yo Mdn-Sw on May 29 over 950m, on a slow track; neck behind Time Power carrying 58kg at $31. Fitter for that run and will be tough to beat.

Gelding by Bel Esprit facing the starter for the first time. Full-brother to ten-time winner Family Star. Dam was a winner of five races. Won trial at Townsville over 850m on May 8. Respect any push in betting.

Filly by Pierata facing the starter for the first time. Half-sister to four-time winner Race Against Time. Dam was a winner of one race. Finished sixth in a Doomben trial over 1000m on May 8 2025. Drawn wide and will likely need this run.

Resuming. Not seen since she finished last of 8 at Newcastle Mdn January 24 over 1300m, 6 len behind Sun Warrior carrying 55kg at $16. On debut ran last in a small field at Warwick Farm 3yo+ MDN-Sw January 7 over 1200m, 5.5 len behind Nandina with 55.5kg at $21. Worth some thought first-up.
