Towcester Bags Race 7 - Race 7

UNLIKELY BARRY (3) finished fifth last time (29.81) at this track after winning at his previous two outings. Has claims if he runs up to expectations. ESSJAY SONIA (5) had trap 5 last start and ran well to finish second, beaten 1.3 lengths, (29.83) at this track. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Can feature again. IVY HILL WILLOW (6) was below best last time when fourth at this track but prior to that among the placings in quick time (44.24) at this track. Expected to bounce back to best. EL PREZ ELSIE (2) missed the frame two runs back then won at her latest appearance by 1.5 lengths at this track over 500m (29.90). Goes up a notch but will give backers a sight.

Sent out long odds last time but rocketed early with a sizzling early sectional before being gathered in late, finishing third (29.89) over 500m at this track. Needs to find a bit more to test these.

Good effort to score last start by 1.5 lengths over 500m at this track in 29.90, beating Silverhill Hank. Has ability and among the chances.

Charged out of the boxes with a sizzling early sectional but swamped late when a close up fifth (29.81) at this track over 500m. Speedy conveyance who looks hard to beat.

Flew the lids with a sizzling early split but found one better when clocking 29.83 over 500m at this track. Has never missed the frame from two starts from this draw. Key chance.
