Townsville Race 5 - T.g.b.o.t.a
HARKLE ROAD (1) steps up 91m in distance at her first attempt over the longer trip. Missed the frame last time when 5th and beaten 8 lengths (24.51) at Rockhampton. Appeals as a leading chance in this. PROJECT ALICE (2) produced a modest effort most recently when seventh at this track over 380m behind Mick's Belle (22.63) in a Restricted WIN. The form out of her last race has been franked. Must be included in calculations. ROSE BELLE (3) doesn't win out of turn but recent form sound. Has hit the frame the last two runs, the latest when third (29.35) at this track. Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Can measure up. PIERRE D'ARCY (7) can improve on an unplaced run here last time out.
