Towcester Bags Race 8

500Mtrs (A5)

Stake: $712

EL PREZ BANDIT (6) wasn't far away at the finish when 4th and beaten only 3.5 lengths (16.27) at this track. Better than last start and worth following up. GARNACHO GIRL (5) finished well back at this track last time when a 4.5 lengths sixth (30.75) but scored three back at this track (30.10). Key player if finds best. THUNDERBOLT (2) has a strong record this track and trip with two wins and two placings from six starts. Below best last time at this track (30.15) in an A5, finishing a 5.5 lengths fourth. Suited here and expected to run well. VINEGARHILL DEE (4) looks an each-way chance.

Races well at this course and distance. Last start finished last over 500m at this track beaten 9 lengths (30.54) behind Salacres Frankie in an A5 on June 25. Solid claims this line-up.

Sent out long odds last time but rocketed out of the boxes with a scorching early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 5.5 lengths fourth (30.15) over 500m at this track. Look for improvement.

Comments

Form of late has been fair. Unplaced two starts back at this track then finished runner-up at his latest appearance in a D2 at this track over 270m (16.04), beaten 1.5 lengths. Decent form of late but faces a stiffer test this time.

Hit the ground running with a sizzling early sectional but gathered in late to finish a 4.5 lengths fifth (30.74) at this track. Capable of a strong show.

Flew the lids with a sizzling early split but gathered in late when a narrow sixth (30.75) over 500m at this track. Tipped to improve sharply. Rates highly on best form.

Back to 500m which hasn't been kind to date. Would be better placed in something easier.
