Newcastle Bags Race 7

#Lovethedogs Stakes

Prize Money: $891

DO IT ZARA (4) showed good speed to score (29.53) off trap five two back then off a similar box last time settled off pace and could manage only a 4.5 lengths 3rd at this track (29.75). Rates highly and will give a great sight. BILLYS BAKER (3) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fourth (29.93) last time in an A5 at this track. Comes through a solid form race last start. Looks the one to beat on his best form. ALNWICK BARNEY (6) finished second (29.47) two back at this track but out of the placings last time when 6th there. Solid record here at the distance winning 13 races. Can measure up this time. ALWAYS KIDDING (2) gets a chance to improve on an unplaced run at his latest outing at this circuit.

Finished off last campaign with a fifth in an A4 over 480m at this track six months ago. Yet to win but has placed from one first-up up runs. Definite threat.

Moderate effort last start when he finished 4th in a OR on March 2 over 435m at Star Pelaw behind Tot Trippett beaten 10 lengths (27.03). Happy to risk in this.

In the money two back then disappointed when he finished last in an A5 on March 4 over 480m at this track behind More Snooze Time beaten 12 lengths (30.37). Expected to bounce right back. Hard to beat.
