Towcester Bags Race 9

500Mtrs (Or)

Prize Money: $1,132

MAD FOR STERLING (3) is long overdue for a win and in super consistent form, jumping from this trap to place last time at Romford (35.27), making it four straight minors. Worth another chance. KEVINS ROCKET (2) is rarely out of the finish, recording 16 places from 28 starts. Better run when finding the frame last time though, finishing third (29.57) at Hove. Goes well out of this box with a win and five minor placings. Will give a great sight again. SALACRES TIPSTER (1) is worth forgiving for his last effort when fourth (29.21) at this track over 500m. Has a good record here at this journey. Goes very well from this draw with eight wins and eight minor placings from 17 starts. Can figure in the finish. KNOCKARD JOE (5) drops in journey and can play a major role.

Big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a scorching early split, weakening late to finish a 2.5 lengths fourth (29.21) over 500m at this track. Has ability and can run well.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish third over 500m at Hove. Can take this out on the back of that sound recent effort.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at Romford then finished runner-up at his latest appearance in a OR3 at Romford over 575m (35.27). Can continue the solid form.

Missed the placings three back but unbeaten in two runs since, the latest claiming an A1 in 24.10 over 400m at Romford. Can sneak into the finish with a repeat of last run.
