Townsville Race 1

Chrysalis Medispa Hcp

Prize Money: $21,000

The babies kick us off. GONE COUNTRY (2) hasn't put a hoof wrong winning both starts over this track and trip in impressive fashion and successful hoop Sewell sticks in the saddle. Racing high on confidence and can bring up the hat-trick here. SCARLENA (4) has hit the frame in all three efforts and gets in well at the weights with the 2kg claim. Genuine top-three candidate. TAMBO'S SISTER (7) was well in the betting on debut but just missed the placings on that occasion. Where there's smoke there's fire and watch for sharp improvement. AUCHTERARDER (3) ran last here when facing the starter for the first time but wasn't too far away. Can feature with natural improvement.

Yet to taste defeat in two starts. When well in the market on debut, favourite; scored a big 3.5 len win at this track 2yo Hcp January 16 over 1000m in soft going defeating Scarlena with 59kg at $2.60. Last start favourite; raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 1.1 len at this track 2yo Hcp February 3 over 1000m on a rain affected track defeating Scarlena with 59kg at $2.20. Looks sure to run well again.

Jumped at a huge quote at debut, ran last in a small field at this track 2yo Hcp on February 3 over 1000m, on a slow track; 4 len behind Gone Country carrying 59kg at $51. Maybe a place.

Second-up. First start 7th of 12 at this track 2yo Mdn-Sw on October 25 over 1000m, 11 len behind Better Blitzem with 55kg at $31. Went for a spell before returning got back early in a small field at this track 2yo Hcp on January 16 over 1000m, slow going 8 len behind Gone Country carrying 58.5kg at $9. Still early in the prep and might need more time.

Was well-supported at debut, in a small field at this track 2yo Hcp on February 3 over 1000m, on a slow track; 2.25 len behind Gone Country with 57kg at $2.20. Can make her presence felt.
