Towcester Bags Race 8 - Race 8

APPROACHING DAWN (2) can keep on winning after a convincing last start success, getting around the 450m at Doncaster in 27.62. Has the ability and expected to go close again. SALTHILL JOKER (1) has a strong winning strike-rate here with two wins and a placing from six tries. Recorded a 1.5 lengths win (16.43) in a D3 last time at this track. Looks well placed here and among the chances. FIVE ALLEY ZENA (5) showed little early speed at her last couple, the latest finishing fourth (27.78) in a B3 at this track. Solid record here at the distance winning six races. Worth following up. BALLYMAC TENSEL (3) can return to form after missing the top-three at this circuit last time out.

Consistent performer who is new here. Nice win last start easily by 3 lengths at Doncaster (27.62) beating Dark Eddie in a B3 on September 6. Strong form emerging from the that last run. Leading chance.
