Racing Post tipster Dave Clark is back to provide his best bets for Sunday's action from Towcester, which includes the £10,000 bet365 Empress Stakes final.
13:57 Towcester - Salacres Slick @ 4/6
16:26 Towcester - New Destiny @ 9/2
17:21 Towcester - Newinn Cloud @ 7/4
13:57 Towcester - Salacres Slick @ 4/6
Salacres Slick (formerly known as Ballymac Slick) reached the semi-final of this year's Greyhound Derby for Liam Dowling and is now handled by Towcester trainer Peter Harnden.
Nicely drawn out in trap five with a slow-starting railer in trap four, this is a great chance for this powerful tracker to return to winning ways after a costly defeat last week.
Blessed with huge back-straight speed, he can work around the outside early on and turn the second bend in a handy pitch before making his move and putting the contest to bed.
Pepinthestep has form over further and battled on well to score last week, she can stay on strongly again and is the forecast play.
16:26 Towcester - New Destiny @ 9/2
Avongate Venus will be the short price favourite for the £10,000 bet365 Empress Stakes at Towcester on Sunday after equalling the 500m track record in her semi-final last week.
However, she now switches out wide to trap six - where she was winless in three starts in Ireland - and Phil Milner's jolly is worth taking on at the prices.
Champion trainer Mark Wallis sends out his Coronation Cup champion New Destiny, who caught the eye in defeat last week behind the favourite and looks best placed to score tucked away on the inside.
A very strong tracker over four bends, she is a bitch with top-class form over six bends, New Destiny can enter the back-straight in a handy pitch before making her move and is a strong fancy to land the Category One prize.
17:21 Towcester - Newinn Cloud @ 7/4
It could be a good afternoon for 14-time champion trainer Mark Wallis at Towcester on Sunday with his New Destiny fancied to score in the bet365 Empress Stakes final, while he is also well represented on the supporting card, including this smart debutant, Newinn Cloud.
A decent Irish card suggests this to be an above average type and the draw is superb in trap five, with four vacant following the withdrawal of local Makeit Mead.
This son of Newinn Session has gradually improved in qualification trials and has landed in a soft maiden, with his only danger, Bockos Sapphire, on the inside for Patrick Janssens.
But the Wallis pup is already competitive on the clock and can only improve, this looks a nice type for the future and one punters should keep onside in the coming weeks and months.
