Townsville Race 4 - Bet Nation Townsville

ASTON ELIJAH (2) finds it hard to win but looks close to breaking through. Finished second (22.15) at this track last time making it four minors on end. Can find winning form. VILLAIN OF MAGIC (3) turned in a solid run last start over 498m at this track finishing 4th and beaten only 4.5 lengths (28.77). Form from his last run is proving to be solid. Better than last start and can bounce back. CANYA GOOSE (1) turned in a fair run last time from the squeeze finishing fifth by 5 lengths (22.23). Goes well out of this box with a win and five minor placings. Cannot be taken lightly. BLACK FALCON (8) was out of the money here last time out but can bounce back.

Hasn't threatened at his last couple but he does have good record over this track and distance. Rates highly and looks tough to beat.
