Townsville Race 1 - Mitavite Hcp

Small field but left with four last-start winners. BRIGINSHAW (1) has been going strongly, the latest racing on speed and running right away to score here over 1000m. Has never missed the frame in six runs, five of them here, and won only try this course over today's distance. Goes close again. RED SCENTSATION (5) is a promising type who returns from a spell at Rocky to win the maiden but by a space. Has upside and looks a big chance to make it back-to-back wins. WORTHY GEM (2) was a fresh-up winner in open class in Cairns. Fitter and will be strong to the line. FAR AND WIDE (3) was immediately off the mark on debut as favourite this course and distance. Can only be improved but will need to against a few handy types here.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run favourite; raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 2 len in a 3&4yo Hcp at this track on September 8 over 1000m defeating Nottington Prince carrying 55kg at $1.50. The start before that 3rd of 8 in a 3&4yo Hcp at Cairns on August 29 over 1250m, 1.1 len behind Worthy Gem carrying 54kg at $2.70. He has an impressive record at his home track and is worth following up.

Second-up. First-up after three months raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 0.8 len in a 3&4yo Hcp at Cairns on August 29 over 1250m defeating Minnie Vegas with 54kg at $3.70. Previously second-up scored a big 6 len win in a 2yo Mdn at Cairns on May 29 over 950m on a soft track defeating Ostuni carrying 58.5kg at $1.08. Big chance to repeat the dose.

Second-up. Promising on debut 4th of 8 in a 2yo Hcp at Mackay on April 2 over 1100m, 2.5 len behind Dub Stepping carrying 58kg at $2.80. Returned from break favourite; won by 3.5 len in a Mdn-Sw at Rockhampton on August 25 over 1100m defeating Urban Reality carrying 56kg at $1.65. Big chance to make it back-to-back wins. Strips fitter and is sure to measure up again.
