Newcastle Race 7

Win 250,000 With Betmgm's Golden Goals Restricted Novice Stakes (Rider Restricted Race) (Gbb Race)

Prize Money: $18,450

L L KOULSTY (1) showed plenty of promise and progress second up last September scoring by a nose over 1200m at Cork (Ireland). Open to further improvement up in trip. Rates highly. SILKY LASS (8) placed twice from four starts and holds a progressive profile following a 1.25L third in a 1600m novice contest at Southwell AW last month. Makes plenty of appeal. LAKOTA CHIEF (4) shaped with credit on debut a month ago producing a 3.5L fourth tackling a 1400m maiden at this track. Improvement expected. HENRY HALFLIGHT (6) out performed big-odds first up recording a 3.75L second attempting 1400m here two weeks ago. Interesting.

At debut, eased back early on 3rd in a small field at this track on January 31 over 1400m, 5 len behind Majestic Dane with 56kg at $8.50. Will derive great benefit from that experience and another big run looks on the cards.

Was well-supported at debut, 4th of 11 at this track on January 13 over 1400m, 3.5 len behind Maria Da Silva carrying 56kg at $1.90. Improver who looks ideally placed here. Shows promise and worth following up.

Form hard to fault. Most recently held ground to the line 3rd of 8 at Southwell All Weather on January 23 over 1600m, 1.3 len behind Lady Dora Mae with 55.5kg at $4.50. Before that made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 7 at this track on December 20 over 1600m, 1.0 len behind Beckon with 58kg at $6.50. Leading chance.

Raced twice to date. At long odds at debut, ran last of 13 at this track on December 19 over 1200m, 18 len behind Honorable Man with 57kg at $34. Second-up 9th of 11 at this track on January 13 over 1400m, 14 len behind Maria Da Silva carrying 51kg at $301. Doesn't look one of the major players.
