Towcester Bags. Race 6

500Mtrs (A5)

Prize Money: $638

CAN YOU HEAR ME (3) has been going along well and was strongly fancied last time but could only manage second (29.94) at this track. Expected to feature in the finish again. SALACRES MERKEL (1) has been in super consistent form, last time breaking from this same trap when second in a D3 at this track (16.32) and making it three straight placings. Harder here but expected to measure up. LAMORNASCRUFFLES (6) is a talented type and proved too strong last time to win by 0.8 lengths at this track in a handy 30.08 beating Easy Zone. Has hit winning form and can measure up again. HAZELHILL DOLLY (2) proved herself from this box last start – sure to figure prominently.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at this track then finished runner-up at his latest appearance in an A5 at this track over 500m (29.94). Consistent performer who is hard to go past.

Could only manage fourth last time out over 500m at this track, a continuation of some ordinary form. Can't recommend against this lot.
