Newcastle Bags Race 4

Arena Racing Company Standard - Division 1

Prize Money: $1,957

BALLYMAC SARGIE (3) boasts a strong record this journey with 12 wins and 13 minors from 33 tries. In the money last time at this track (29.15) in a OR3, finishing a 3 length third. Looks the one to beat with even luck. ANTIGUA KESTREL (2) was in the placings last time but shapes well for this on his dynamic win the start prior, getting around Romford over 575m in 34.99. Top win two back and can measure up again. HOWAY TONALI (4) goes very well this course and distance starting 27 times for nine wins and 11 minors. In the money last time at this track (29.25) in a OR3, finishing a 7 length third. Can feature with the right run. BORN SCOOBY (1) should bounce back after an unplaced effort here recently.

Handy type with a solid strike-rate. Winner two back then well fancied last time and could manage only third over 575m at Romford in 35.60. Going well and can bounce back to winning form.

Comments

Filled a minor placing last time over 480m (29.15) at this track in a OR3, beaten 3 lengths. Boasts good form here at the journey with seven wins and seven minor placings from 17 tries. With a clean break looks hard to beat.

Finished fourth two starts ago then regained form last time out when he found a couple better over 480m in an A1 at this track. Back on track last time but this looks a stern test.
