Townsville Race 9

Prize Money: $3,200

SHOWTIME PIPER (1) has some solid form under her belt and proved too strong last time to win by 3.5 lengths at this track in a handy 21.72 beating Southpaw Mcgraw. Can go close again if runs up to latest figure. JUDI STARLINE (2) boasts a consistent overall record including eight wins from 28 starts, the latest hitting the minor money when second (21.70) over 380m at this track. Super consistent and can feature with the right run. JIMMY ROO (7) looks close to another win after finishing third last time (21.84) at this track. Has a strong winning record here at this journey. Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Hard to beat again. MENDOCINO (5) form at this course and distance reads well.

Hit the frame at this track last time when a 1.75 lengths second but did record a dynamic 21.70 over the 380m journey. Expected to push the clock again here.

Was out of placings last time (22.02) at this track in a Best 8, finishing fifth and beaten 6 lengths. Goes very well from the draw boasting one victory and three places from eight starts. Among the chances on best.

Could only manage sixth last time but the start prior hit the frame at double figure odds when third (21.88) over 380m at this track. Has a decent strike-rate from the draw and in the mix on his best form.

Snuck into the minor money last time when a 4 length third at this track but did record an excellent 21.84 over the 380m journey. Rates a top chance with a repeat here.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fourth last time out over 380m at this track. Can't recommend against this lot.
