An artist's impression of a man police want to trace in connection with the rape of a woman has been released.
The 20-year-old woman was on a footpath that leads to Northampton Racecourse on 20 June when a man forced her into the park and attacked her.
Det Ch Insp John Jones said: "This artist's impression has had a profound effect on the victim so I am convinced this is a very good likeness."
The man was white, aged in his 20s, 5ft 10in, with short dark hair.
He was wearing a mustard-coloured sweatshirt that had the number 78 stitched on the left-hand side of the chest, dark jeans and open, walking-style sandals.
Before the attack, the woman had got off a bus at Greyfriars bus station and walked down Campbell Street to Regent Square and along Barrack Road.
Mr Jones said: "I am anxious to trace this man as quickly as possible and would appeal to anyone who knows him, recognises him, knows of his whereabouts or who has information about this distinctive mustard sweatshirt, to get in touch.
"We are conducting house-to-house enquiries and are pursuing all forensic opportunities open to us."
