Newcastle Bags Race 5

Arena Racing Company Standard - Division Two

Prize Money: $1,494

HOWAY TONALI (3) boasts a consistent overall record including 11 wins from 42 starts, but missed the frame latest when fourth (29.14) over 480m at this track. Tends to go well on this trap. Looks the testing material here. SLINGSHOT BLUE (4) has a fair record and proved too classy last time to win by half a length at this track in a handy 28.68 beating Brunssum Bubble. Winner at his latest appearance in the quickest time on the card. Expecting another bold showing. ZENITH MIKMACKER (6) shapes well after a speedy run last time, finishing second in a OR at this track in 28.75. Rates a leading chance if runs up to latest. BALLYMAC SARGIE (2) can run a bold race on best form.

Moderate effort last start when he finished last over 480m at Nottingham beaten 10 lengths (29.69) behind Swift Kipper in a OR3 on August 10. Hard to enthuse about the chances of this railer.

Good performance after racing on the speed to score in an A1 by 0.5 len at this track over 480m (28.68). Boasts a course and distance PB in a dazzling 28.55. Top chance.
