Newcastle Bags Race 1

Friday 7th August 2026

Prize Money: $776

BLACKHOUSE KIM (6) is down a grade after missing the frame two back at this track then finished third at her latest appearance in an A1 at this track over 480m (28.98). Drops a class and gets chance to find winning form. A BIT OF BETTY (4) goes very well this trip starting 30 times for 10 wins and nine minors. Was out of placings last time (29.51) at this track in an A2, finishing fifth and beaten 7 lengths. Makes strong appeal on best. PATTERDALE MESSI (1) was safely held in tougher company last start at this track, but prior to that won by a nose at this track (28.93) beating Jacktavern Keano in an A2 on July 24. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. FABULOUS KIMIKO (3) placed out of the same box last time out - worth some thought.

Good effort to score last start by 1.75 lengths over 480m at this track in 28.88, beating Fabulous Adriana. Prepared to just watch this time.

Below her best last time over 480m at this track (29.51) in an A2, finishing 7 lengths away in fifth. Boasts good form here at the journey with 10 wins and nine minor placings from 30 tries. Appeals greatly.

Filled a minor placing last time over 480m (28.98) at this track in an A1, beaten 4.5 lengths. Strong record at this track and trip with 18 wins and 16 placings from 54 starts. Has ability and is a key chance.
