Newcastle Bags Race 1

Friday 5Th September 2025

Prize Money: $785

SOLWAY FLO (2) is a promising dog in the frame at two of nine starts including five wins and was a last start winner (29.28) over 480m at this track. Tends to go well on this trap. Looks well placed here and should prove hard to beat again. A BIT OF OSCAR (6) jumped from this trap last time and also the same course and distance when a 2.25 lengths third (29.32) in an A5. Harder here but will be in this for a long way. ALNWICK LEGEND (4) jumped from this trap last time and also the same course and distance when a 1.3 lengths second (29.24) in an A5. Expecting another bold showing. SWIFT LEON (5) followed a moderate fifth at this track two runs ago with another plain effort last time to finish fourth, beaten 2.25 lengths, in an A4 at this track over 480m (29.38). Watch for a better run this easier company. Something for the Multiples: ICE GOT RHYTHM (3)
