Newcastle Race 9

The Tab App 2Yo Maiden Pace

Prize Money: $9,792

HUNGRY JOE (8) registered a strong performance last time when he battled on bravely to just miss out as runner-up at this circuit and distance. Will need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position but he is a leading hope if it comes his way. HEZA CASANOVA (7) has had two months off since his debut sixth at Albion Park. Likely to have developed further since then and has trialled. BETWEEN DECKS (6) has come from the back row in his last two outings and there was merit in the latest effort. Go well. CRUNCH IT (3) draws well and may be ready to show more at start number three.

Finding that maiden win elusive. Last start 5th (Sr1) over 1609m at this track, beaten 8 m by Aderfaki (1:55.90) in MAIDEN GH on October 3 at $6.

Two-year-old gelding lining up for the second time. At debut 6th (Sr1) over 1660m at Albion Park, at the bell was 3rd-4.9m on the pegs beaten 8 m by Im Busted (2:01.00) in 2yo MAIDEN on August 12 at $23. Rates highly. Likely improver.

Two back was beaten by 7 m finishing fifth behind Dynamite Danni at Penrith over 1720m in a 2yo MAIDEN on September 25 at $4.60. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Aderfaki at this track over 1609m in a MAIDEN GH on October 3 at $4.20. Among the better chances.
