Newcastle Bags Race 9

Newcastle Greyhound Stadium Stakes

Stake: $868

ALWAYS KIDDING (2) won again in another strong performance recording back to back wins at this track over 480m (29.16). Looks to have an edge on most of these. GET ME HOME (5) recorded a half a length second in an A8 last time 29.63 at this track and trip and also jumping from the same draw. Expecting another bold showing. WESTFORTH WILLOW (1) has shown good improvement at her last two starts, hitting the frame latest when 2nd at this track over 480m. Boasts two wins from three starts out of this box. Will give a great sight again. WATERMILL WENDY (6) warrants respect following a recent placing.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at this track then finished runner-up at her latest appearance in an A8 at this track over 480m (29.72). Not to be underestimated.

Finished fifth two starts ago then regained form last time out when she found one better over 480m in an A8 at this track. Put the writing on the wall last start so follow her up.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just 1.75 lengths into third over 480m at this track. Racing well enough to play a big role.
