Towcester Bags Race 2 - Race 2

CARD COUNTER (2) turned in a fair 4th placed finish last time at this track over 460m (27.32). Goes well out of this box with a win and six minor placings. Key runner on his best form. BETWEENTHESTICKS (1) last raced on July 18 when fifth (29.99) over 500m at this track in an A4. Form at the trip sound including two wins. Will go close here with a clear run. DENANVAL (3) is a capable type and proved too classy last time to win by 2 lengths at this track in a handy 29.52 beating Fabulous Arizona. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. One of the prime contenders. IVY HILL WILLOW (6) cannot be left out after placing here at this trip last start. Something for the Multiples: EAGLES DREAM (4)

Hit the ground running with a sizzling early sectional but gathered in late to finish a 6 length sixth (30.55) at this track. Can't make much of a case this time.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just a head into second over 500m at this track. Better last time but not convinced this is her race.
