Towcester 1.25
Towcester 1.25 9 Burgess Dream @ 25/1 (1/4 point e/w - odds to 4th currently)
The Going Stick indicates it may be a bit tackier than Good to Soft/ Soft in places . This is one
of only a few tracks that report added comments to Stick readings, and the reading are quite similar to 17/2/2016
when they also noted "ground will be tacky and holding"; if only more Courses gave that advice!
This trip of 3 miles will take some getting and these are a moderate bunch, Midnight Magic comes from a Yard
that can change a horses form very quickly; Red Admirable found a race last time but not the horse he was
and Triopas although a worth favourite cannot be backed at those odds with extra penalty and nagging doubts
about the Going. A sporting bet is BURGESS DREAM who has twice won in very heavy Going at Lingfield;
not steep hill to climb to the finish there, but a long straight and an undulating track and the booking of the
vastly experienced Andrew Thornton, who can be outstanding in this type of race adds to my confidence.
The other one who could outrun odds at nice prices is The Lion Man but a small bet on BURGESS DREAM
is the tip for today.
