Newcastle Bags Race 5

Watch Pgr On Sky Sports Racing Stakes

Stake: $993

WATERMILL AURORA (4) was popular in betting last start but disappointed when 1.75 lengths away in fourth (29.54). Was in the money the start prior. Can discover winning form. MIDTOWN HOPE (5) is a last-start placegetter from this box - solid claims again. ALNWICK LEGEND (3) jumped from trap four and quickly into stride, leading for much of the way for third and beaten a long neck (29.35) at this track in an A5 over 480m. Expected to be in this for a long way. RIDGEDALE ROSIE (6) has gone well at her last couple of runs here, most recently when third beaten 2.25 lengths (29.42). Consistent performer from this draw with a win and five minor placings to her credit. Winning chance.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to be beaten just 2 lengths into second over 480m at this track. May find this a bit too tough.

Finished fourth two starts ago then regained form last time out when she found one better over 480m in an A5 at this track. Racing well enough to feature in the finish.

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