Townsville Race 6

Bet Nation 1-3 Wins H

Prize Money: $2,400

GHOST OF WADDELL (1) was in the placings last time but prior to that he produced a powerful 21.74 win over 380m at this track. Looks the one to beat on win two back. VILLAIN OF FIRE (7) impressed last time when clocked a fast 21.86 to finish second behind Party Anytime in a new PB this course and distance. Should be in this for a long way. SWING ON BY (2) was safely held last time out, finishing eighth at this track over 380m behind I'm Free (22.76) in a Grade 5. Was in the money prior to that. The form out of last race has been strong. Has ability and can measure up. HOLLYWOOD SHADOW (8) is last start winner who looks one of the chances.

Was in the placings last time but prior to that was an impressive winner scoring by 3.5 lengths in a Grade 5 at this track and recording a brilliant 21.74 over the 380m journey. Hard to top on the time from two back.

Was out of placings last time when eighth (22.76) at this track in a Grade 5. Will jump from box 2 for the first time. With a clean break looks hard to beat.

Needs to do more than recent efforts, the latest a seventh over 380m at this track. Not going well enough. Needs to lift.

Got back last start and could only manage fifth but before that won easily by 3.5 lengths at this track (22.01) beating Shine On Bruiser in a Grade 5 on January 23. Happy to risk in this.

Won her last couple, most recently at this track on January 30 over 380m in 22.42 and showed promise. In top form and can make it three straight.
