Townsville Race 4 - Tzouvelis Racing Stayers Challenge
FEDERAL CASH (4) recorded a 3.5 lengths third in a OPEN last time 37.72 at this track and trip and also jumping from the same draw. Worth following up. SLIM NIKITA (2) is better than last start when fourth (22.49) from Box 4 at this track over 380m. Has won two of five starts from this draw. Likely to be thereabouts. AMBER ANNIE (3) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fourth (22.60) in a Grade 5 at this track. Shapes as one to consider. FEDERAL BLUE BOY (7) is a last-start placegetter with solid claims again.

Is back up to 643m which has been an issue in the past. Last appeared when sixth over 498m at this track four weeks ago. Be tough to make an impression against this lot.

Well supported here last start but let backers down, finishing finished 4th on July 10 over 380m at this track behind Average Return beaten 6 lengths (22.49) in a Grade 5. Placed two back at this track. Key chance on best form.

Got back last start and could only manage fourth but before that won by 2.75 lengths at this track (37.49) beating Federal Blue Boy in a OPEN on June 23. Is a danger.

Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 498m. Last start finished 3rd on June 23 over 643m at this track behind Amber Annie beaten 3.5 lengths (37.72) in a OPEN. Looks a strong winning hope.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (38.14) in a OPEN, finishing a 9 length fifth. Goes very well from the draw boasting two places from four starts. Will need some luck to feature.

Finished second last start (37.69) at big odds over 643m at this track. Jumps from a wide draw. Cannot be ruled out.

Is back up to 643m which has been an issue in the past. Last appeared when third over 380m at this track four days ago. Not among the main chances this time.
