Townsville Race 2 - Get On A Good Thing With Bet Nation
MOONSHINE MAGIC (4) was never in contention last time at this track, but prior to that won comfortably by 6 lengths at this track (21.70) beating Gengar Wave in a Grade 4 on February 17. Has ability and looks hard to stop. DANIEL SPARKLES (5) has been hard to follow lately, running fifth (22.41) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at this track. Key player on best and worth another try. SHIAN PEACHES (7) is unbeaten over this track and trip in three starts. Comes off a (22.00) win last time, scoring by one length in a Grade 4 over 380m at this track. Among the main chances.

Talented type with an excellent strike rate at this journey. Has been prominent in the run and duly saluted at her last couple, most recently over 380m at this track in a handy 22.00 beating Good Odds Raven. In sparkling form and can win again.

Did a good job two starts back at Angle Park to win by 2 lengths in 19.82, beating Elegant Zephyr. Last start finished 6th on February 24 over 380m at this track behind Gengar Wave beaten 12 lengths (22.66) in a Grade 4. Likely to find this too tough.
