Townsville Race 11

Alan Olsen

Prize Money: $2,400

FUEL THE FIRE (3) has been mixing form lately, hitting the frame two back before finishing seventh (22.65) at this track in a P5. Expecting sharp improvement this line-up. MENDOCINO (6) missed the frame last time out when fifth at this track from Box two (22.19) but draws same box here as latest win. Cannot be left out. PANAMA LAD (1) missed the frame and was safely held latest finishing 6th at this track following on from a second place finish (22.17) there the start prior. One of the main contenders. MISCHIEVOUS MINI (8) gets a chance to improve on an unplaced run at her latest outing at this circuit.

Comments

Missed the frame last time but was narrowly beaten two back when second (22.17) over 380m at this track. Has the inside draw and is worth plenty of thought.

Was out of placings last time (22.26) at this track in a Novice race, finishing fifth and beaten 3.5 lengths. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed three times. Others rate better this time.
