Townsville Race 3 - Bet Nation Townsville Maiden F
SAND EXPRESS (4) was speedy out of box 5 on debut to score by a neck (22.16) at this track over 380m. Can make it two on the bounce. FIREBALL ERNIE (2) was well fancied in betting last start but could only manage 6 lengths away in third (24.18). Expecting another good run. UTAH SAINT (3) ran a nice race on debut when hitting the frame, finishing third (22.60) at this track over 380m. Meets a moderate line up and should do much better. BURNT TANGERINE (1) is worth including after a top-three finish most recently.

Yet to break through in eight runs, the latest effort a third over 407m at Rockhampton in 24.18. Rates highly and is the one to beat.

Showed good early speed on debut over 380m at this track, leading early before boxing on well to finish third (22.60). Looks a strong winning hope.

Kicked off career from box 5 at this course and distance and immediately opened winning account, scoring by a neck in 22.16. Can only be further improved and expected to measure up again.

Solid performance to post a big 6 lengths win at this track over 380m (22.08) beating Fireball Ernie in Maiden on May 1. Needs to find a bit more to test these.

Turned in a fair debut over 380m at this track where he settled on speed and faded late to finish fourth (22.60). Likely to be much improved. Not likely to feature on this occasion.

Has only been in the placings once from seven starts. Last raced when fifth over 380m at this track a week ago. Not far away last start. Right in the mix again.
