Towcester Bags Race 8

500Mtrs (A4)

Stake: $634

GAFFER (2) is going well, filling a minor placing two back then was a 4 length winner of an A5 at this track over 500m (29.73). Hard to fault winning form and expected to feature despite the tougher grade. CAN YOU HEAR ME (4) quickly away to win over the 500m at this track two runs back then raced on speed again when finishing second at this track last start. Leading chance. SWIFT ALIEN (6) is progressing well with another good run last time, placing (30.25) last time out at this track. Form at the trip sound including 25 wins. The form out of last race has been strong. Leading player again. DARING SUN (1) has strong claims after a top-three finish last time out.

Sent out long odds last time but rocketed early with a sizzling early sectional before being gathered in late, finishing third (30.38) over 500m at this track. Capable of a good showing.

Showed blistering pace early and gave a sight but gathered in and finished third over 500m this track in 30.25. Comes out of a hot form race. Worth following up.
