Newcastle Bags Race 5

Pgr On Sky Sports Stakes

Prize Money: $815

TINO ON FIRE (6) is long overdue for a win, finishing in the minors at his last four starts, the latest jumping from this same trap when third in an A7 at this track (29.85). Has the ability and looks a key chance. ALNWICK NEWS (2) turned spotting a big start finishing fifth (29.47) last time in an A6 at this track. Should be about the money. A BIT OF BETSY (1) hit the ground running and on speed early but faded out of it to finish fourth (29.70) at this track over 480m. Cannot be left out. CANNY ORLA (5) scored from box 5 last start – cannot be left out.

Could only manage fifth last time out over 480m at this track, adding to some plain results of late. Not far from winner last time but has the job ahead here.

Solid effort after racing in the second half of the field and improving to score in an A7 by neck at this track over 480m (29.52). Sure to be about the mark.

Form has been sound without winning, placing at his last four starts, the latest when third (29.85) over 480m at this track. Has been around the mark at his last couple and should make his presence felt.
