Townsville Race 4 - Betnation.com.au
KATY WANTED (1) was an upset winner last time when scoring at big odds in a Maiden at this track (22.41). Can make it back-to-back wins. BIG PAPA PARTY (8) has been hard to follow lately, running fourth (22.89) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at this track. Key player on best and worth another try. NIKKI'S REGRET (7) jumped well to win over the 380m at this track two runs back then prominent throughout when finishing second at this track last start. Expected to be in this for a long way. MONTEBELLO (4) placed last time at this track and distance - worth some thought.

Strong performance to post a big 4.5 lengths win at this track over 380m (22.41) beating Fireball Ernie in Maiden on April 17. Makes plenty of appeal. Go close again.

Could only manage sixth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest at double-figure odds when second (22.27) over 380m at this track. Aided by a low draw but prefer the place this line-up.

Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 380m. Last start finished 2nd over 380m at this track beaten 2.75 lengths (22.12) behind Tiger Bailey in a Maiden on April 21. Racing well and can find winning form again.

Lines up from box 8 for the first time after finishing a 10 length fourth at this track (22.89) in a Grade 6. Looks suited here and rates a leading chance.
