Newcastle Bags Race 3

Greyhounds Make Great Pets Stakes

Stake: $853

MIDTOWN HOPE (5) showed good speed to score (29.60) off trap five two back then off a similar box last time settled off pace and could manage only a 3.5 lengths 3rd at this track (29.60). One of the contenders. ALNWICK PICKLE (1) doesn't win out of turn but recent form sound. Has finished in the placings two on end now, the latest when third (29.57) at this track. Can measure up. BRAMBLE CELINE (4) has missed the frame the last couple but was an A6 winner three back (29.57) at this track over 480m. Can feature with the right run. BAD MOON RISE (2) missed the placings here last start but is well-placed to turn the form around.

Comments

Fair debut over 480m at this track where he settled off pace and boxed on to finish fifth (30.06). Should be much improved on the experience. Be tough to make an impression against this lot.
