Townsville Race 14

Bet Nation Townsville

Stake: $3,000

UTAH GUNN (7) Racing fresh today after a break. Finished on top last start at Q Straight. Might take a while to wind up but should be hitting top gear in the straight. Should go well. ON TARGET (5) Lacklustre showing when 6th last start around here. Expecting to settle positively. Must respect. PUDDIN' TIME (8) Scored a victory last time here and can find a nice position from the draw. Won last 2 on the bounce. Should be going forward early. Respect. BRUNSWICK BOY (3) Ran 4th last run at Casino. Expecting improvement. Should muster plenty of early speed. Can push an each way bet for it.

Came in 2nd last start at this venue and has drawn to do little work. Back in trip. Demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Others preferred.

At $61.00 fairly underwhelming when 5th last time here and down in distance. Prefer in something a lot easier.
