Towcester Bags Race 7 - Orchestrate Juvenile Classic - 2nd Semi-Final

ANNADOWN SHADOW (1) box seated early before forging to the lead turning and lifting to score (28.88) at this track in a OR1 over 500m. Boasts a strong record from this draw with three wins and two minor placings from five starts. Looks the one to beat. ARTHUR BITTER (2) has an excellent record over this journey having never missed the placings in six starts, including five wins. In the money last time at this track (29.45) in a OR1, finishing a 9 length third. Among the main chances. GAV NIFICENT (4) was well supported last time but could only manage second (29.11), beaten 4 lengths. Overdue and is among the main hopes. SWIFT QUICK (3) can sneak into the finish again.

Overdue for a win recording five minors on end, the latest sizzling early but finishing in the minors again at this track, clocking 29.11. Boasts a course and distance PB in a lightning 26.33. Must include.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at Hove then finished runner-up at his latest appearance in a OR1 at this track over 500m (29.29). Facing a difficult assignment this time.
