Townsville Race 10

Murray Bribbus Lawyers Wollongong

Prize Money: $2,400

WHITNEY GIRL (2) has shown good improvement at her last two starts, finishing in the money last time when 2nd at this track over 380m. Deserves a win and gets her chance. ASTON ELIJAH (7) finds it hard to break through. Better run when finding the frame last time though, finishing third (22.06) at this track. Leading chance. STRIKING MISS (3) has missed the frame at her last couple but wasn't beaten far three back when third (19.43) at Q Straight in a Mix 5. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. LIGHTNING TULLY (6) placed last time at big odds - worth some thought.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage seventh last time out over 380m at this track. Needs to find a bit more to test these.

Working her way into winning form after her success on August 14 at this track over 380m. Last start was second over 380m in 22.05, behind Miss Rosalea. Still to win from this draw but has been in the placings four times. Top chance.

Hasn't shown any early speed lately and drifts back in her races. The latest effort was a 7 length sixth over 498m at this track. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.

In the money last time at this track (22.06) in a Mix 5, finishing a 4 length third. Has performed well off the draw with a win and five places from nine starts. Looks a key chance on best form.
