Newcastle Race 5

Ave Technologies Newcastle Mile (Group 2)

Prize Money: $100,000

Former Kiwi RAKERO ROCKET NZ (4) has made a big impact since joining Jason Grimson and been dominant in winning his last two starts over this distance at Menangle. Hasn't raced for five weeks but was kept up to the mark with a trial and has the speed to push forward from this draw. The one to beat. In-form Queenslander CHEERSTOLOU (3) draws inside Rakero Rocket and has enough pace to make things interesting early. This is a step up in class but he has been a revelation since joining Donny Smith for this campaign, winning nine of his 10 Albion Park starts over 1660m including his last six on the trot. BULLETPROOF BOY (10) has copped the visitor's draw but has been very good against the big guns in Victoria so far this season including a Bendigo Cup victory over Kingman and he downed champion pacer Leap To Fame in a Smoken Up Sprint win at Melton last year. Respect. HELLUVA NZ (1) has been coming from wider or second line barriers so the ace draw should see him competitive.

Has won at his last six outings. Last start won by 7 m as favourite when quickly away, (Fr2) at Albion Park (1:54.70) beating Targaryen in No NR on February 14 at $1.08. Hard to leave out on current form. Racking up the wins and while this is harder he draws to be prominent.

Six-year-old gelding is racing in fine form. Won his last two outings at Menangle both over 1609m. Last start won by 4.5 m as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr1) at Menangle (1:49.50) beating Ubetcha Tigerpie in LR No NR on January 24 at $1.07. Has impressively won his last two starts at this distance and will be hard to stop.

Chasing a hat-trick. Last start won by a nose (Fr5) at Menangle (1:50.60) beating Jay Ok in NR up to 95 on February 7 at $2.50 at the bell was 2nd-3.2. Hard to leave out on current form. Jumps in grade but he is going well.

Last start 7th (Sr2) over 2760m at Melton beaten 9 m by Swayzee (3:14.40) in G1 No NR on February 14 at $81. At his previous start game effort despite getting well back, when 2nd (Fr6) over 2790m at Bathurst, beaten 6 m by Captains Knock (3:21.80) in LR No NR on January 30 at $4. Reliable and worth including.

Last start 3rd (Fr2) over 1609m at Menangle, at the bell was 5th-8.94 beaten 2 m by Pinseeker (1:49.70) in No NR on February 21 at $16. Two runs back was driven from back in the field when 7th (Fr6) over 2300m at Menangle beaten 11 m by Jay Ok (2:44.20) in NR up to 105 on February 14 at $3.60. Might find this beyond him.

Comments

Last start was driven from back in the field when 8th (Fr7) over 2760m at Melton, beaten 13 m by Swayzee (3:14.40) in G1 No NR on February 14 at $151. At the start before game effort when 3rd (Fr2) over 2555m at Cranbourne, beaten 5.5 m by Leap To Fame (3:02.70) in G1 No NR on January 31 at $12. Tough draw but he can be dangerous at these shorter trips.
