Townsville Race 11 - Bet Nation

I'M FREE (7) was never in contention last time after losing her position early at this track, but prior to that won easily by 3.5 lengths at this track (21.69) beating Ghost Of Waddell in a Grade 5 on January 30. Can atone. CASH PIRATE (1) had a tricky draw last time and although midfield in fourth wasn't far away finishing 4.5 lengths from the winner (22.10). Bold showing expected. KASEY'S WAY (3) was in the money last time at this track (21.85) in a Grade 4, finishing a 4 length second. Has already won three times from this draw. Can feature in the finish. JIMMY JAX (2) is worth a look over a shorter distance this time.

Snuck into the minor money last time when a 4 length second at this track but did record a solid 21.85 over the 380m trip. Hard to top with a repeat of that run.

In the money last time at this track (22.05) in a Grade 4, finishing a 4.5 lengths third. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and four minors. Tough line-up and may struggle.

Showed brilliant pace early and gave a sight when a 5 length third over 380m this track in 21.92. Safe beginner who is expected to take running down despite the draw.
