LUCORA (1) had been racing well prior to his last start fourth at this track following a Mix 5 win three back with a third placing. Likely to improve sharply this time. BIG EASY AL (2) has missed the placings at his last couple but was in the money three back when third (21.60) at Townsville in a OPEN. Can improve sharply here. CHRISTMAS DAY (5) missed the frame and was safely held latest finishing 6th at this track following on from a second place finish (25.63) there the start prior. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings seven times from 10 starts. Likely to be thereabouts. PADOVA (8) has claims fresh from a recent placing at this track and distance.

Missed the frame last start when fourth but had been in strong form prior to that, winning two on end before placing two back. Looks a key chance here on best and given another chance.

Didn't make the placings last time at Townsville (28.79) in a Grade 3/4, finishing a 6 length fourth. Goes very well from the draw boasting five victories and five places from 16 starts. Expected to be in the finish.

Good performance to win by 1.75 lengths at this track over 457m (25.63) beating Phoenix Amelia in Mix 5 on September 12. Has a very good strike-rate out of box 4, scoring four times. Among the chances.
