Mt Isa Race 4 - Open Hcp
ILZOOMYA (10) finished fifth last time out over 1000m at Townsville, beaten 5.5 lengths. Leading contender. VIBURNUM (2) turned in a nice run last time to finish third over 1000m at Townsville after being prominent at the turn. Finds a more suitable contest and can get the job done. FORTRESS AUSTRALIA (3) returns from a layoff of 12 weeks. Scored over 1100m at Rockhampton at the start of last prep. Makes plenty of appeal. BLAZERRO (6) finished fifth over 1450m at this track at his most recent appearance on November 29. One to consider.
