Towcester Bags Race 5

Race 5

Prize Money: $862

BALLYKILDUFF GEM (2) goes very well at this journey here having never missed the frame including two wins and two placings. Scored by 5 lengths last time (29.45) in an A3 over 500m at this track. Looks suited here and rates on top. SPIRIDON ZELUS (6) was popular in betting last start but disappointed when 3.5 lengths away in fifth (29.91). Was in the money the start prior. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. FRANKTON IVY (3) has a strong record this track and trip with five wins and seven placings from 15 starts. In the money last time at this track (29.77) in an A2, finishing a 5 length second. Suited here and expected to run well. GRAFTON STAR (5) is always hard to beat when he races here at this trip.

Placed last two, the latest showing sizzling pace early but gathered in and finishing third at this track in 29.53. Hard to recommend this time.

Charged out of the boxes with a sizzling early sectional but swamped late when a close up fourth (29.65) at this track over 500m. Others hold stronger claims.

Comments

Got back early in the race last start when fifth over 500m at this track. Before that won comfortably by 4 lengths at this track (29.09) beating Salacres Slick in an A2 on February 10. Look for improvement. Not out of it.

Comments

In the money two back then disappointed when he finished 5th on February 17 over 500m at this track behind Venetian Jock beaten 3.5 lengths (29.91) in an A2. More than capable and well placed to find his best form.
