Newcastle Bags Race 2

Greyhounds Make Great Pets Stakes

Prize Money: $721

A BIT OF NOAH (1) settled down midfield and held his position to the line when finishing 5th (29.65) at this track. Has winning claims on his best figures. THE INSTIGATOR (6) quickly into stride and found the front, leading until late when third (29.79) at this track in an A6 over 480m. Can feature again. BALLYCOOLE MAGGY (4) wasn't far away at the finish when 4th and beaten only 2.75 lengths (29.54) at this track. Bold showing expected. SZOBOSZLAI (2) is worth consideration after filling a hole as favourite last start.

Latest effort finished last in an A6 on March 31 over 480m at this track behind Blackhouse Peggy beaten 4 lengths (29.65). Missed the frame last time but prior to that had four placings in a row. Deserves another chance.

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

Got back early in the race last start when fourth over 480m at this track. Before that won comfortably by 5 lengths at this track (29.75) beating Blackhousehariet in an A7 on March 25. Others make more appeal.
