Townsville Race 5 - Bet Nation Townsville

KING AND I (1) used the inside draw to advantage last time and hit the ground running with a fast early split, but could manage only the minor money when a one length second at this track over 380m in 22.05. Has performed well from this box with a win and four minor placings to his name from five starts. Sure to be about the mark. MARKET MAVERICK (2) did a good job to finish second last time out over 380m at this track (21.95) in a Grade 5, the second top-three finish on the trot. Rates a winning chance on best. WONG GLASS (8) has a strong record this track and trip with three wins and four placings from nine starts. Was out of the placings last time (29.22) at this track in a Grade 5/6, finishing fifth and beaten 2 lengths. Can hit the frame with the right run. STOKEY THE BEAR (4) can run a bold race on best form.

Eye-catching performance to score by 3 lengths in a Grade 6 last start at this track, clocking an outstanding 21.77 for the 380m trip. Should be in this for a long way.

Could only manage seventh last time but the start prior went down fighting when second (22.10) over 380m at this track. Tough draw to overcome but can measure up.

Looks close to another win after her success on September 22 at this track over 498m. Last start was fourth over 498m in 29.53, behind Villain Of Magic. Has a superb 21.77 best time at this course and distance. Worth including.
