Race preview

Welcome to the Mt Isa action for Race 2, the Sportsbet (Bm55) over 1450m on a good track under fine skies, set to jump at 12:47 pm AEDT. The win market order has Nassau County heading up the top of the betting, closely followed by The Wellian, Foxy Artist, Tigon Princess, and Makanui rounding out the pack. Let's dive right into the numbers and see how this field shapes up for a big day on track!

The form lines jump right off the page for the market leaders. Nassau County sits at the top of the win market order for Bevan Johnson, coming off a solid fourth over this 1450m trip at Mt Isa following a runner-up finish at Richmond, and the hot jockey and trainer combination are outperforming market expectations by a massive sixty-two percent. Right behind in the betting is The Wellian for trainer Tanya Parry, stepping out from barrier four with Brooke Stower after showing plenty of dash with the fastest overall finishing sectionals last start and a gutsy second over this exact track and distance. Foxy Artist is another from the Tanya Parry yard with Hayley Saunders in the saddle from barrier one, bringing a solid win at Richmond and a recent third right here over the 1450m into the mix, rating a real chance to figure in the finish again.

Looking further down the field, Makanui maps as the lone leader from barrier five for trainer Ms S Royes, though the stable combination carries a cold streak into the race. The Wellian's fast-finishing traits and the strong hot combo backing Nassau County are the big ticks to focus on, while Foxy Artist gets the map favors from the inside alley. The numbers say keep a close eye on the front end and watch how these seasoned campaigners handle the 1450m test as they battle it out for the spoils.

AAP

Solid 62kg winner at Richmond 24 Oct. In the minor spoils but still well held this course over this distance. Good gate helps. Key player.

ILB

Tidy effort when 3rd last run around here and has drawn to do little work. Will be hitting the line strongly. Winning chance.

RP

A course winner; not beaten too far when third of five nine days ago; knows how to win so easy to see him making an impression.

RSIS

Ran 3rd last start at this venue and drawn by the rails. Has a nice turn of foot. Well respected contender.

Comments

AAP

Unable to make an impression at Richmond for new stable. Will be out to atone.

ILB

Jumped at $3.90 and disappointing display when 6th last time at Richmond. Likely to be well placed early. Can win this.

RP

Not far behind Makanui when last at Richmond over 6f (handicap) on first run for her current trainer last month; she can be competitive at this level; big player.

RSIS

Was 3/1 and below expectations when 6th last time at Richmond. Will be positive in the run early. Expecting a solid performance.

AAP

Long winning drought but close lately. Finished it off only fairly this track second-up. Can challenge.

ILB

Started at $17.00 and ran on into 4th last start at this venue and will try to take advantage of the alley. Should muster plenty of early toe. Possible place chance.

RP

Running consistently; stable is ticking along nicely.

RSIS

Odds of 16/1 and edged past some when finishing 4th last run at the track and can find a nice position from the draw. Shows good early pace.

AAP

Ordinary performance in small field at Richmond. Shapes as a major player.

ILB

Jumped at $4.20 and mediocre performance when 5th last run at Richmond. Suited against these.

RP

Not beaten too far when fifth of six at Richmond over 6f (handicap) last month; has won here before; a few rivals look in good form so others more appealing.

RSIS

Odds of 10/3 and fairly underwhelming when 5th last time at Richmond. Should go well.

Gave good sight filling the minors this track over today's trip. Very fit, could spring a surprise.

ILB

Ran well when 2nd last time at the track. A threat to the other main hopes.

RP

Finished ahead of two of these rivals when a respectable runner-up last month; brings winning C&D form to the table; latest effort was encouraging so he's an attractive contender.

RSIS

Competitive effort when 2nd last time at this venue. Great chance.

AAP

Fair way from the winner but battled home into third this venue. Needs to lift again here.

ILB

Good effort to place 3rd beaten by close to 10L last run here.

RP

Has kicked on in his last couple of races but yet to get off the mark and losing run stands at 11; came home third, beaten 10l, last month in a maiden; may have to settle for supporting role.

RSIS

Improved to place when 3rd beaten by close to 10L last time at this venue.

Odds correct as at . Odds can change.
