Townsville Race 8 - Bet Nation Townsville Cup F
WICKET (1) comes here after a sizzling win over 498m at this track in 28.49. Smart win latest and looks a key chance again here. RIO RAGNAR (3) has an impeccable record this course, winning all four starts. Comes off a (28.56) win last time, scoring by 2 lengths in a OPEN over 498m at this track. Can hit the frame with the right run.

Narrowly beaten last time at this track when only half a length from the winner but did record a lightning 28.23 for the 498m journey. Harder here and one for the multiples.
