Towcester Bags Race 4 - 500Mtrs (Or1)
HOPES OMPALOOMPA (3) broke the clock when winning over 500m at Nottingham last start, taking a OR3 in a scintillating 29.31. Rates a top chance again if runs up to latest. NO BETTER FEELIN (4) was favourite last start and led all the way, scoring by 3.5 lengths (29.33) at Nottingham in a OR over 500m. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in his latest win. Will go close again if runs up to latest. START THE MIXER (1) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fifth (29.82) in a OR at this track. Bold showing expected. GINGERS SHELBY (6) has a solid strike rate at this distance.

Charged out of the boxes with a sizzling early sectional but swamped late when a close up fifth (29.82) at this track over 500m. Can bounce back. One of the main chances.

Flew the lids with a sizzling early split but could manage only third (29.70) over 500m at this track. Prepared to risk.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by 3.5 lengths over 500m at Nottingham in a handy 29.33, beating Cul Na Braithre. Strong form emerging from the that last run. Leading chance.
