Townsville Race 4 - Tzouvelis Racing Stayers Challenge
FEDERAL CASH (4) lines up here off a comfortable win at this track after jumping from box 8 (29.09). Has a tricky draw to overcome and will need a clean break. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and two minor placings to his credit. Form reads well for this. HARA'S GHOST (7) spotted a start but wound up strongly late and finished third and beaten 4 lengths (37.57) at this track in OPEN. Although beaten ran one of the quickest times on the card last start. Overdue and gets his chance. TOMMY'S WHISKY (2) stretches out further in journey and is having his first try at the trip. Comes here after a last start 4th and beaten 5 lengths (22.09) at this track. Looks one of the chances. HARA'S HARPER (1) can finish much closer after missing a cheque at this track last start.

Has been in tremendous form, putting three wins together. Had plenty of support last start when he won by 2.25 lengths at this track (29.09) beating Nikki's Regret in a Grade 4/5 on June 16. In hot form and can take this out.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fifth last time out over 498m at this track. Failed to threaten last start and looks tested again.

Hit the frame at this track last time when a 4 length third but did record a convincing 37.57 over the 643m journey. Expected to go close with a repeat of latest.

Could only manage fourth last time but the start prior hit the frame when third (38.01) over 643m at this track. Tough draw to overcome but in the mix on his best form.
