Townsville Race 3

Prize Money: $4,600

SOUTHPAW MCGRAW (1) was game in defeat when finished in the minors last start over the 498m at this track, running a handy 28.73 in a Grade 3/4. Hot time latest and looms as the one to beat. MAISIE MOO MOO (4) missed the frame latest (28.84) when fourth over 498m at this track in a Grade 3/4. Makes strong appeal on best. JACKKNIFED (8) was out of the placings last time but shapes well for this on his slick win the start prior, getting around this track over 498m in 28.78. Must include on winning run two back. TIME PASSAGES (2) was beaten into fourth last time but ran impressive time with a swift 28.79. Worth thought on that run.
