Townsville (G) Race 5

All Rig Lifting & Engineering

Prize Money: $2,400

STRIKER STAR (4) could manage only seventh at this track last time but impressed when clocking a solid 21.95 over 380m at this track three starts back. Looks the one to beat on best figures. BIG PAPA PARTY (8) has mixed form recently, finishing fourth (22.31) in a Grade 6 at this track latest but did run well two back when in the frame. Expected to bounce back to best. BIG EARS REGRET (2) filled a minor placing last start at this track behind Tex Gunn (22.17) in a Grade 6. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Expected to feature. RACCOON RUSTY (3) should be thereabouts despite an unplaced run here most recently.

Could only manage eighth last time but the start prior hit the frame when second (22.31) over 380m at this track. Has a low draw and capable of a better result.

Missed the frame last start when a 9 length seventh (22.41) at this track. Previous form sound including a win three back at this track. Looks a definite winning chance on best and given another chance.

Latest effort finished 4th in a Grade 6 on May 1 over 380m at this track behind Tex Gunn beaten 8 lengths (22.31). Capable of a strong show.
