Towcester Bags Race 1

Towcester Friday 20Th February 2026 Afternoon Pgr Meeting

Prize Money: $812

TRAPSTYLE DOPEY (5) is racing well without winning, recording three minors on end, the latest hitting the ground running with a scorching early sectional but finishing in the minors again over 500m at this track, clocking 29.99. Good form should continue. PAGAN AND CHIEF (2) settled midfield in the run and boxed on to finish there when 4th (30.26) at this track. Solid formlines coming through his last run. Warrants plenty of respect. MAGICAL PIPPA (4) trailed the lead and fought on well to be beaten 3 lengths into second (30.09) at this track in an A6 over 500m. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and eight minor placings to her credit. Will give a great sight again. FLICKERING KING (6) must be respected despite an unplaced effort here most recently.

In the money two back then disappointed when he finished 4th in an A6 on February 13 over 500m at this track behind Fabulous Arizona beaten 2.25 lengths (30.26). Looks a strong winning hope.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish second over 500m at this track. Looks to have turned things around so follow her up.
