Townsville Race 12 - Bet Nation Townsville
FEDERAL SNIPER (6) continued his winning form with another strong run after leading them home making it three on end, scoring by 2.5 lengths (21.97) at this track over 380m. Has a strong record from box 6, including two wins. Hard to fault recent form and looks a key chance again. LIGHTNING TULLY (1) was responsible for a modest effort most recently when eighth at this track over 380m behind Panther Potter (22.66) in a Grade 5. Cannot be left out. HOLLYWOOD SHADOW (2) was safely held last time out, finishing sixth at this track over 380m behind Villain Of Fire (23.00) in a Grade 5. Likely to play a prominent role. DON'T TELL SHILO (3) is in form and must include among the chances.

Good effort to win last start by 4 lengths over 498m at this track in a handy (28.82), beating Me Myself And. Can make it two on the bounce.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage eighth last time out over 380m at this track. Likely to find this a bit tough.

Has shown little speed out of the boxes and tends to spot them a start in his races, The latest effort was a 13 length seventh over 380m at this track. Prefer in something easier.
