Racing and Sports highlight our standout plays at Australian TAB meetings for April 23.
Australian thoroughbred TAB meetings are today held at Sale, Townsville and Coffs Harbour.
SALE: RACE 1 @ 1:00 PM
MRS SUPERGRASS (6) was a beaten favourite on debut but did have to work hard early on that day and it told in the run to the line when she finished a hard-fought third. She will be better for that run and can take this out. TURN UP THE MUSIC (2) has the ability and did well to finish third in a stronger field at Cranbourne last time out. He is back in trip but is still good enough to figure in the finish again. FLOWER GALLERY (3) doesn't know how to run a bad race but just can't seem to break through at the moment. The trip suits her and another honest run can be relied upon. PARANA RIVER (7) will be peaking third up and outside of the top 3 picks, there is not much depth to this field. She has the ace draw and is worth including in all combinations.
SELECTIONS: Mrs Supergrass to win.

TOWNSVILLE: RACE 7 @ 5:15 PM
VANCOUVER BAY (7) found his best first-up winning this grade at Cairns as favourite. The longer sprint suits and he is well-placed with the 3kg claim. Fitter and rates to repeat the dose. TALONS (5) is an ex-NSW galloper and quickly found form for the new barn winning the 55. That reads well and he will be better for it. A chance. ROCK IN THE PARK (3) switched from a Victorian barn and was beaten a lip at Cairns first-up. He'd been off the scene for 565 days so it was a big effort. Is sure to have come on and Wiggins is a key jockey booking. BREAKWATER BOY (2) led and just missed in stronger grade. He is likely to control the race from an inside gate. Peaks and the 2kg claim brings him right into it.
SELECTIONS: Backing Vancouver Bay.
