Newcastle Race 9

The Tab App Pace

Prize Money: $11,832

I BREAK THE LINE (9) led as favourite in a higher-graded race at Menangle last start and fought well to finish just a head from the winner. Placed from this row in the Tamworth Cup prior. This is the lowest graded race he has tackled for some time and he goes well at this circuit and distance with three wins and three placings from seven attempts. LIGHT ME UP NZ (3) enjoyed the drop from city company when he scored by over a metre last week. That victory meant he has won the last two times he has raced here and he draws to go close again. ITZMINEONTHELINE (2) is another drawn well and has some decent form including a placing two back at Menangle. VINCENTIUS MAXIMUS (1) has had some tough barriers of late so should not have any excuses from the ace draw.

Didn't do much last time out, 6th (Fr5) over 2030m at this track was 7th-12.99 at the bell, beaten 8 m by Dance With Carmer (2:25.40) in NR 71 to 90 on February 6 at $101. Before that 7th (Fr7) over 1609m after showing early speed at this track was 4th-6.88 at the bell, beaten 17 m by Saint Crusader (1:52.30) in No NR on January 28 at $19. Not keen on his chances in this line-up.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Helluva at Tamworth over 2360m in a No NR on January 23 at $3.80. Then a handy effort when a close second after a quick start, behind Captain Bellasario at Menangle over 1609m in a NR up to 95 on February 7 at $2. Well placed to break through.

Expected Settling Position: Off Pace
