Townsville Race 7

Ross Wilkie Crabs

Prize Money: $4,200

LUCKY LLAMA (3) fast out of the inside draw with a slick early sectional and clocking 28.83 in a nose win at this track over 498m last time. Recorded the quickest time on the card last start. Great chance again. STAPPEN ON TAP (1) was below best at her last start when 6th at this track following a third place finish (29.49) there two back. Goes well out of this box with a win and five minor placings. Warrants plenty of respect. GRINCH (6) goes very well this course and distance starting 14 times for five wins and three minors. Below best last time at this track (29.12) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 1.5 lengths fifth. Suited here and expected to run well. SANDAVE RICHIE (7) can finish much closer after missing a cheque at this track last start. Something for the Multiples: HUEY LUEY (8)

Missed the frame latest (30.24) when sixth over 498m at this track in a OPEN. Goes well out of this box with a win and five minors. Looks suited and should go close.

Strong performance to win by half a length at this track over 498m (29.02) beating Federal Blonde in Grade 5 on January 21. Sure to be about the mark.

Strong performance to score by a nose in a Grade 5 last start at this track, recording a sharp 28.83 over the 498m journey. Can measure up again if runs up to that effort.

Has been in the minor money the last two runs, the latest finishing third (29.08) at this track. Awkward draw to overcome. Looking to others.

Dual acceptor. Was out of placings last time (29.43) at this track in a Grade 4/5, finishing eighth and beaten 6 lengths. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed four times. Makes appeal on best.

Hit the ground running with a slick early sectional but had to settle for a minor placing when a 1.5 lengths third over 498m at this track, clocking 29.12. Consistent record from this draw. Solid chance.
