Towcester Bags Race 9 - Race 9
SALACRES MACHINE (2) is racing well without winning, recording four 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 30.02. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings two times from three starts. Can measure up this time. ADAMANT FINN (4) is an honest type in the frame at five of 12 starts including last time when third (29.62) over 500m at this track. Has a good overall strike-rate and can find the frame here. ARDERA VILLE (3) is heading the right way. In the minors two back with a narrow second then scored by 0.8 lengths in an A4 last time at this track over 500m (29.97). Rises a grade but expected to measure up. ANTIGUA BUBBLE (5) can add to a sequence of top-three finishes.
