Townsville Race 1

Jeff Lynch

Stake: $2,640

NATURAL TONY (2) finished third (22.50) two back at this track but out of the placings last time when 6th there. Has ability and looks hard to stop. ZYDECO (8) shows ability but remains a maiden after 10 starts. Hit the frame again last start finishing second (24.39) at Rockhampton. Strong form has emerged from his last run. Will give a great sight again. EMPTY SKY (6) is overdue for a maiden success having placed at five of 10 starts, the latest missing the frame when fifth at this track. Should be thereabouts. AUSSIE RED (1) cannot be written off despite a miss here at her latest outing. Something for the Multiples: KEWARRA BEACH (7)

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage eighth last time out over 380m at this track. Looking to others this time.

Yet to break through in 10 runs, the latest effort a second over 407m at Rockhampton in 24.39. Should go very well.
