Towcester Bags Race 8

The Greatbet Challenge Trophy - Semi Final 2

Prize Money: $1,465

VHAGAR (5) brought up her 24th career win last start at Towcester (42.66). Has never been out of the money in four starts this course and distance. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in her latest win. Looks the testing material. NEWINN CLOUD (4) is a promising dog in the frame at 27 of 61 starts including 21 wins and was in the minors again latest (42.98) over 712m at Towcester. Has a good record at this journey. Has a good overall strike-rate and can find the frame here. CHASING LARRY (2) could manage only second last time but ran solid time (43.02) at Towcester over 712m when beaten 5.5 lengths in a OR2. Has the ability and can measure up. UNDERGROUND NAVY (3) warrants respect following a recent placing at big odds.

Solid effort after racing in the second half of the field and improving to score in a OR2 by 0.8 len at Towcester over 712m (43.35). Can't recommend him in this.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by 6 lengths over 712m at Towcester in a handy 42.66, beating Underground Navy. In hot form and can take this out.
