Towcester Bags Race 8

Star Sports & Orchestrate Ltd English Greyhound Derby Trial Stakes

Prize Money: $1,490

POMBA GLADYS (5) is worth forgiving for her last effort when fourth (29.85) at this track over 500m. Form here sound including two wins. The form out of her last race has been franked. Has ability and can bounce back. CUL NA BRAITHRE (4) has been in the minors the last two, the latest showing blistering pace early but gathered in and finished a 3 length second over 450m Oxford in 27.27. Has a strong record from this draw, notching four wins and four minor placings from eight starts. Can feature again. WESTFIELD FORNO (1) hit the ground running off an inside draw last start and was never headed (34.31) at Suffolk Downs in a S3 over 548m. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Expected to feature again. THOR ODINSON (6) is worth a look over a shorter trip this time.

Hit the ground running with a sizzling early sectional and gave a sight but found one better when runner up at Oxford clocking 27.27. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last time despite being beaten. Follow up.

In the money two back then disappointed when she finished 4th in an A3 on April 1 over 500m at this track behind Common Moon beaten 4.5 lengths (29.85). Comes through a good form race. Looks a top chance.
