Townsville Race 12 - Essery Racing 1-3 Wins H
ZIPPING BUBBLES (8) has been out of the placings last two but shapes well for this if she can recapture her solid win a few runs back, getting around The Gardens over 400m in 22.91. Can return to winning form here if runs up to best figures. HARRY BOY (1) is mixing form lately, finishing out of the placings last time at this track but was a Grade 6 winner two back at this track. Can feature with the right run. COLONEL'S DREAM (7) is worth forgiving for her last effort when fourth (24.22) at Rockhampton over 407m. Solid record here at this trip including two wins. Will give the top chances plenty to think about. RUI'S ROCKET (3) must be respected despite an unplaced effort here most recently.

Last start finished 4th over 380m at this track beaten 11 lengths (22.56) behind Lucky Time in a Grade 5 on February 27. Has been around the mark at his last couple and should make his presence felt.

Could only manage seventh last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest at double-figure odds when third (22.17) over 380m at this track. Boxed out wide and looks a each way chance only this field.
