Wrexham battled to a hard-earned point at the Sixfields Stadium against the bookies' League Two favourites.
Substitute Andy Kirk came closest to breaking the deadlock for Northampton, his lobbed right-foot shot hitting the crossbar two minutes from time.
Wrexham's impressive midfielder Mark Jones made two goal-line clearances, one from the profligate Josh Low.
Jones blew a number of goal-scoring chances, but vied with Dennis Lawrence to be Wrexham's man-of-the-match.
Wrexham midfielder Matt Crowell's knee injury has ruled him out of the Wales Under-21 squad to face Malta in Llanelli on Tuesday.
Northampton: Harper, Bojic (Brett Johnson 53), Dyche, Chambers, Crowe, Low (Gilligan 85), Hunt, Taylor, Dudfield, Jess, Sabin (Kirk 62).
Subs Not Used: Bunn, Bradley Johnson.
Wrexham: Ingham, Roche, Pejic, Bayliss, Lawrence, Holt, Williams, Mark Jones, Ferguson, Walters, McEvilly (Bennett 69).
