Newcastle Bags Race 6

Prize Money: $875

CANNY ORLA (5) has been mixing her form in handicaps. Nice effort to finish second two runs back breaking from 5m at this track then only managed fifth, beaten 13 lengths, last start when started off 5m at this track over 480m (30.26). Today will be starting off 2m. Difficult to tip against on her best form. ALNWICK TOONARMY (4) scored a most impressive win two back then drifted back and missed the frame latest finishing a 11 length 6th at this track (30.10). Comes out of a solid form race last start. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. A BIT OF SAVANA (6) filled a minor placing last start at this track behind Interest Free (29.53) in a HCP. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Form from her last run is proving to be solid. Hard to beat again. SWIFT SANDCASTLE (3) followed a moderate fourth at this track two runs ago with another plain effort last time when off 2m in a handicap, finishing fifth, beaten 12 lengths, at this track over 480m (30.59). Tackles another handicap here and will jump from the 8m mark.

Could only manage sixth last time out over 480m at this track, a continuation of some ordinary form. Happy enough to dismiss in this field.

Moderate effort to finish sixth last start in an A8 over 480m at this track (30.49). Finished fourth in his only other handicap appearance. Jumps with a 10m advantage. Sure to improve on what he does today.

Was having first try in a handicap when off 2m, finishing fifth (30.59) over 480m at this track. Jumps with a 8m advantage. Could sneak into the finish with the right run.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to finish second over 480m at this track. Cannot be overlooked based on that sound recent effort.
