Towcester Bags Race 4 - Race 4

ROMEO BORA (6) missed the frame over 500m at this track latest but ran a respectable 29.67 when beaten 7 lengths. Top run latest and looms as the one to beat. THE RISING SUN (3) held her own to the line last start and filled a minor placing, beaten only a neck (16.07) behind Vegas Chatter at this track. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last start despite being beaten. Can measure up. BLACK SERPENT (2) has a strong winning strike-rate over this track and trip with two wins and a placing from six tries. Scored by 1.75 lengths last time (16.04) in a D1 over 270m at this track. Suited here and expected to run well. MAKEIT VALENTINO (1) has ability and can find the frame.
