Newcastle Bags Race 8

Arena Racing Company Stakes

Prize Money: $772

DEELISH DIVA (6) looks well placed here following an A5 win two back before finishing in the minors at her latest appearance in an A5 at this track over 480m (29.42). Drops a level and hard to knock recent efforts. Go close. SOLWAY RAMBO (5) had trap 5 last start and ran well to finish second, beaten 1.3 lengths, (29.46) at this track. Leading player again. SWIFT ZEN (2) is a talented type and proved too classy last time to win by 1.75 lengths at this track in a handy 39.71 beating Burrow Starlet. Solid formlines coming through her last run. Has hit winning form and can go on with it. EDEN POGBA (1) comes into calculations after placing out of the same box most recently.

Finished fourth two starts ago then regained form last time out when he found one better over 480m in an A6 at this track. Cannot be taken lightly based on that sound recent effort.

Good effort after tracking the speed to score in a HCP by 1.75 len at this track over 640m (39.71). Strongly fancied last time and lived right up to expectations. Stick with her.

Disappointed last start over 480m at this track when beaten 3.5 len (29.90) behind Shelone Glory on July 29. Other runners look much more appealing.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to be beaten just 1.3 lengths into second over 480m at this track. Heading the right way looks well placed to take this out.

In the money at this track at her last couple of starts, most recently finishing third over 480m. Won't find this any harder. Hard to beat with even luck.
