Townsville Race 14

Place A Srm With Bet Nation

Prize Money: $2,400

GO GEM GO (3) clocked a strong 21.95 winning over 380m at this track last start in a Grade 5. Expected to push the clock again here. ZERO FORGING (2) missed the frame last time but had been racing well prior to that, winning a Grade 6 three back before a placing at this track the following run. Key player on best and worth another try. ELSA ESCARGOT (1) has been hard to follow lately, running eighth (23.06) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at this track. Well placed here and can atone this time. PANAMA LOCO (8) can improve on an unplaced run here last time out.
