Towcester Bags Race 2

Race 2

Prize Money: $805

CARD COUNTER (2) has a moderate overall strike-rate. Finished third (30.08) at this track latest and might be close to finding winning form again. The form out of his last race has been franked. One of the contenders. SALACRES PAIGE (6) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing sixth (30.15) in an A4 at this track. Can do much better this time. SALACRES SAHARA (3) followed a moderate fifth at this track two runs ago with another plain effort last time to finish fifth, beaten 10 lengths, in an A4 at this track over 500m (30.41). Deserves another chance this class. BALLYCLEARY BONO (5) is a last-start placegetter who will have admirers.

In the money at this track at her last couple of starts, most recently finishing third over 500m. No easier here and likely to struggle.

Winner two starts back at this track over 500m in 29.86. Last start hit the frame over 500m at this track in A4. More than capable and has to be included.

Flew the lids with a sizzling early split but gathered in late when a narrow sixth (30.15) over 500m at this track. Below best last time but looks well placed here. Deserves another chance.
