Towcester Bags Race 4

Greyhoundtrader.com Stakes - Semi Final 2

Prize Money: $1,465

VENETIAN MICK (4) finished 3 lengths away in second last start over 500m at Towcester but in a useful 29.01. Has the ability and looks hard to top. UNCLE FREDDIE (6) shapes well for this after winning last start over 500m at Towcester in a lightning 28.77. Rates a leading chance if runs up to latest. BALLYMAC ODIN (1) turned in a better effort at Towcester last start, finishing third behind UNCLE FREDDIE (29.17) in a OR2. Has the pace to be prominent. Will give a great sight again. TEEJAYS CHELMS (2) hasn't been far away, finishing in the money twice in a row including last time in a OR2 at Towcester over 500m.

Flew the lids with a sizzling early split but could manage only third (29.17) over 500m at Towcester. More than capable and has to be included.

In the money at Towcester at his last couple of starts, most recently finishing second over 500m. Won't find this much tougher. Right in the mix.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just a nose into second over 500m at Towcester. Hard to make a case on this occasion.
