Townsville Race 11

Get On A Good Thing With Bet Nation

Prize Money: $2,800

LEMON SLICE (1) drew a squeeze box and was game in defeat when a close second, 1.75 lengths from the winner Maple Wave (21.91) at this track. Has a very good strike-rate from this draw, with two wins from three starts. Can measure up this time. MARJORIE MAUDE (7) flew around 380m at this track in 21.93 three back then has been in the money the last two since. Top win three back and can measure up again. SPEEDY BEN (6) is chasing a hat-trick of wins after scoring last time at this track in 28.78, set up by a fast early sectional. In the mix. Something for the Multiples: KING AMAR (8)

Hit the frame at this track last time when a 1.75 lengths second but did record a strong 21.91 over the 380m journey. Hard to top with a repeat of that run.

Has finished fourth at this circuit at the last two appearances, most recently when beaten 3 lengths behind Maple Wave over 380m. Is a danger.

Was out of placings last time (22.39) at this track in a Grade 4, finishing fifth and beaten 7 lengths. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and two minors. Looking to others.

Good effort to win last start by 3.5 lengths over 498m at this track in a handy (28.78), beating Navabi. Will find this a bit tougher but can feature.

Finished in the minors last time in a Grade 5 at this track when a one length second but did run a hot 21.83 for the 380m trip. Expected to push the clock again here.
