Townsville Race 6

Get On A Good Thing With Bet Nation

Prize Money: $4,600

SOUTHPAW MCGRAW (1) was an excellent 28.73 winner at this track last start. In winning form and can measure up again. BOGIE FRANK (2) was a winner (28.65) at this track two back but out of the placings last time when 6th there. Solid record here at the distance winning three races. Has performed well from this box with a win and three minor placings to his name from six starts. Leading chance. JACKKNIFED (6) was strongly fancied on the back of a win two starts back but finished third last time (29.01) at this track. Bold showing expected. SOLOMON CAIN (4) returns here with a good chance to improve on last time.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 0.8 lengths in 29.21, beating On Report. Last start finished 6th over 498m at this track beaten 5 lengths (29.06) behind Southpaw Mcgraw in a OPEN on March 3. Hard to have this time.
