Newcastle Bags Race 9

Www.newcastle-Greyhounds.co.uk Stakes

Prize Money: $749

FIVE ALLEY LUNA (3) was well fancied last time on the strength of the win two back but could only manage third (30.56) at this track. Rates highly and will give a great sight. DRUMNAFERN BLAZE (1) has been in super consistent form, finishing in the minors at his last four runs. Last time finished 3rd over 480m at this track beaten 1.3 lengths (30.50) behind FIVE ALLEY LUNA in an A8 on June 16. Overdue and expected to feature again. PRESIDENTS DAY (5) has mixed form, but did hit the frame three back and was narrowly beaten next start before a sixth (18.18) at this track in a D3 latest. Well placed here and can atone this time. FOOTFIELD AMELIA (4) is an improver who can finish much closer after missing a cheque at this track when making debut.

In the money at this track at his last couple of starts, most recently finishing third over 480m. Won't find this any tougher. Hard to beat with even luck.

Comments

Racing consistently, including a win two back at this track, before a 4 length third (30.56) over 480m at this track last time. Has been around the mark at her last couple and should make her presence felt.

Comments

Turned in a fair debut run over 480m at this track where she settled off the pace and battled on to finish fourth (30.60) and beaten 5 lengths. Top-three hope with the right run.

Missed the placings at the final run of his last campaign, finishing sixth over 290m at this track on April 15. Yet to win but has placed from three first-up up runs. Looks one of the better hopes in the race.
