Townsville Race 10 - Bet Nation 5Th Grade H

MISS PUMPKIN (7) lines up chasing another win after getting around the 380m at this track in a swift 21.95 on May 1. In form and can measure up again. BOOM SMACKING (2) was a last start winner (19.95) at Gunnedah who is building a strong winning record. The form out of last run is most impressive. Leading player again. HIDDEN FURY (1) has hit the frame here at the last two runs, most recently finishing third beaten 9 lengths (29.51). Well placed over the shorter trip here. The form out of his last race has been franked. Expecting another good run. HARA'S MERYL (5) can return to form after missing the top-three at this circuit last time out.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior was just edged out when second (22.21) over 380m at this track. Boxed awkwardly but capable of a better result.

Didn't finish two back and couldn't make the frame last time when she finished 6th over 380m at this track beaten 10 lengths (22.97) behind Tiny's Regret in a Restricted WIN on May 1. Cannot enthuse on this occasion.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at this track over 380m in 21.95 last start, beating Shine On Ski. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of the latest win.
