Rockhampton Race 6

You're On A Winner With Betdeluxe

Prize Money: $2,400

LUCKY TIME (5) comes here following a placing in strong time (21.79) over 380m at Townsville when beaten 3 lengths in a Grade 5. Has the ability and expected to go close again. CANYA WOW ME (2) is better than last start when sixth (30.66) in a OPEN at Q Parklands over 520m. Solid record here at the distance winning three races. Got the money at his only try from this box. Likely to be about the mark. JALAPENO POPPER (3) doesn't have the best strike-rate but recent form is sound. Has hit the frame at her last five runs, the latest finishing second (30.46) at this track. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last start despite being beaten. Hard to beat again. RACHEL SPARKLES (1) with some luck can improve on an unplaced run last time here.

Snuck into the minor money last time when a 3 length second at Townsville but did record an outstanding 21.79 for the 380m trip. Has the ability and looks a key chance again.

Flew the lids with a fast early split last time, hitting the frame with a 9 length third (24.17) over 407m at this track and making it two placings on end. Has run blistering time here with a 23.64 PB at the distance. Must include if she recaptures that form.
