Newcastle Bags Race 10

Newcastle Greyhound Stadium Stakes

Prize Money: $837

ALNWICK GERS (4) missed the frame last time at this track but just three runs back rocketed around 480m at this track in 28.70. Can measure up again if runs up to recent best times. PATTERDALE MESSI (2) missed the frame latest when sixth at this track (29.26) but was a winner three back in the best time of the program. Has a good record here at this journey. Shapes as one to consider. TODDYS ACE (3) is a last start placegetter in an A2, jumping from this trap and finishing a one length second over 480m at this track. Boasts a strong record off this same box, including two wins and 12 placings from 23 starts. Harder here but will be in this for a long way. SLAHENY EIGHTY (5) is always hard to beat when drawn in this box.

Good effort to score last start by half a length over 480m at this track in 28.87, beating Solway Blue. Hard to envisage a win.

Latest effort finished last in an A2 on August 27 over 480m at this track behind Slaheny Eighty beaten 6 lengths (29.26). Below best last time but looks well placed here. Deserves another chance.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just one length into second over 480m at this track. Looks to have turned things around so follow him up.

Good effort to score last start by one length over 480m at this track in 28.78, beating Toddys Ace. Makes plenty of appeal on that latest effort.
