Townsville Race 8

Quality Fabrications And Welding P/L Hcp (C6)

Prize Money: $21,000

HOT DIGITY BOOM (2) is the one to beat after missing by a nose in a BM70 at this track. The rise to 1400m is supported by a solid distance record, and the weight relief strengthens the case. On top. TORANAGA (10) has put together two narrow seconds, the latest here behind Rock The Sunrise, and his record at this track and distance plus the Ivo Fry pairing make him the clear danger. BRAVE AGENDA (8) was only beaten just over a length first-up in a BM60 and strips fitter with a sizeable weight drop. In the mix. READY TIGER (6) comes off a narrow BM65 here and is honest enough to be included, though the return to 1400m is a question.

Comments

Faded late after settling just off the lead when seventh in Open grade at this track, beaten four lengths on soft ground. He had gone much closer at this venue the start prior, beaten a long neck as a well-supported favourite despite racing wide and laying out late.

Went within a nose of winning a Benchmark 70 at this track last start after being bumped early and covering ground through the early stages. That followed a Cairns second as odds-on favourite, so he is knocking hard. Proven enough at 1400m and looks the one to beat.

Returns from a lengthy spell after ending last campaign with a plain second last in Open grade at this venue, where he began slowly and never made an impression behind Aged Care. His previous fourth behind John Joseph was better, though he again had early issues.

Comments

Returns from a two-month break after finishing last at Bowen in a Benchmark 65, where he was slow away and beaten seven and a half lengths despite being near the top of betting. He now steps from picnic company into a harder meeting, although the weight relief is genuine from 66.5kg to 59.5kg.

Worked home from the rear for fourth in Open grade at this track, beaten a length and a half, and the late difficulty getting clear adds merit. Two back he won a Benchmark 72 at Cairns, beating Canberra Legend by a neck after coming wide.

Comments

Returns from a five-week freshening after winning a Benchmark 65 at this venue over 1609m, holding out Rock The Sunrise by a nose at generous odds. That was a strong lift from his prior 2000m failure, where he was beaten seven lengths after racing wide early. Back to 1400m is the query, but he is going well enough for a placing.

Comments

Led first-up at this track in a Benchmark 60 and was only beaten just over a length after weakening late, which was a sound return at generous odds. She now gets a sizeable weight drop from 59.5kg to 54.5kg and steps to a distance where she has two wins and seven placings. Strong winning chance.

Expected Settling Position: Leader

Backs up after a third at Ewan in 3yo+ Class 4 company, beaten just over two lengths after travelling behind the leaders and fading late. Before that he was sixth behind Chartwell at this track, with the slow start and home-turn interference offering some excuse, though Hot Digity Boom beat him there. Best seen as a place hope.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield

Comments

Has been beaten narrowly at his past two, most recently a neck second in a Benchmark 60 at this track after tracking the speed and fighting on behind Rock The Sunrise. The Cairns second prior was at big odds in a 4yo Quality, so the form has substance rather than being a one-off. With Ivo Fry back on, he is a major winning chance.

Expected Settling Position: Pace
