Newcastle Race 2

All-Weather Championship Is Back Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)

Prize Money: $18,450

KEOGIE (3) faded as favourite running fourth over 1609m at Listowel last time beaten 2.25L. Holds strong claims among this company and could bounce back. BELLA ANGELINA (8) finished seventh tackling 1400m at Wolverhampton when resuming beaten 5.5L. Best form is good enough and she may improve. VENETIAN SKY (10) showed progress when fourth trying 1600m at Great Yarmouth last time beaten 2L after a disappointing eighth at Kempton Park. Nicely positioned to go closer. PETULA (1) returns after winning on debut a 1400m contest at Kempton Park. That win was more than two years ago. Might well improve for the outing. Something for the Multiples: ALL YOU CAN BE (2)

Form hard to fault. Comes off a 39 day let-up. Last start 4th of 14 at Listowel on September 21 over 1609m, 2.25 len behind Storm Ready with 61kg at $4. The run before that 2nd of 14 at Gowran Park on September 1 over 1408m, nose behind Starborn Legend carrying 61kg at $13. He should be in this for a long way.

Having third race start. At very long odds at debut, ran last of 9 at Redcar on September 9 over 1600m, 21 len behind Al Jolson carrying 60.5kg at $81. Last start ran last in a small field at this track on September 19 over 1400m, 14 len behind Weffaag carrying 60.5kg at $151. Won't figure in the finish.
