Newcastle Bags Race 12

#Lovethedogs Stakes

Prize Money: $721

AFTERNOON CALL (2) was strong over this course and distance last time despite filling the minors, finishing half a length behind Crooks Willow in 29.52 and recording a new PB here. Top run latest and looms as the one to beat. FIRE HEIGHT CORA (6) drew trap 5 last start and was game in defeat when a close second, a head from Blackhouse Bobby (29.56) at this track. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and six minor placings to her credit. Will give a great sight again. TEXAS BONNIE (1) jumped from the inside and boxed on well to finish second last time, beaten 1.3 lengths (29.51) behind Neon Puns Gravel at this track. Expected to feature. ALNWICK GEM (3) followed a moderate sixth at this track two runs ago with another plain effort last time to finish fourth, beaten 7 lengths, in an A5 at this track over 480m (29.81). This easier so not to be underestimated.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just 1.3 lengths into second over 480m at this track. Looks to have turned things around so follow her up.
