Townsville Race 8

Bet Nation 1-3 Wins F

Prize Money: $3,200

MISS BRIMLEY (2) has been in sparkling form scoring back to back wins, the latest by one length (21.83) over 380m at this track. Winner at her latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. In great recent form and expected to measure up again. MY CAPE ESCAPE (5) carved over from wide out and boxed on strongly to finish a neck away in second (21.95) behind SAND EXPRESS at this track. Solid formlines coming through his last run. Expected to feature again. UTAH SAINT (1) turned in a better effort at this track last start, finishing second behind HARA'S BRIAN (22.19) in a Restricted WIN. Has the pace to be prominent. Yet to taste defeat from two runs out of this box. Leading player again. SAND EXPRESS (7) won last start after racing on the pace. Must be respected.

Hit the frame latest (21.91) when second at this track in a Restricted WIN. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Tough field and looking to others this time.

Hit the ground running with a slick early sectional but ran over late and missed the frame when a 2 length fourth (22.07) over 380m at this track. Has ability and worth including.
