Townsville Race 2 - Ladbrokes Punter Assist Mdn Hcp
DEE THREE (2) settled back and found the line nicely on debut at Cairns, finishing runner-up. Has the inside and looks tough to stop again. CHICA PODEROSA (6) is the big threat. Close to a win placing three of four starts and looks a top chance this line-up. ASK ME EDI (1) has shown speed and placed at both runs so far. Will push forward and be in this for a long way again. BOOMIOUS (5) is fitter for two runs back and gets his chance. Not far away in the latest and drawn for a good run this timer. BOOMING BELIEF (9) will push forward and has to be included among the main hopes. Watch the market closely with the first starters.

Clinton Taylor trained two-year-old gelding lining up for debut. Won a recent trial at Rockhampton. Shows ability and must watch the betting closely.

Jumped at big odds at debut, from last on the turn 7th of 10 at Cairns 2yo Mdn-Sw on April 9 over 950m, on a slow track; 3.5 len behind Red Light Power with 54kg at $31. Fitter and can improve with the run under the belt.
