Newcastle Bags Race 6

Follow Newcastle Greyhounds On Facebook Stakes

Stake: $1,043

SKEARD MAGIC (1) last seen when scorching around the 480m at this track in 28.90 for a 4 length victory. Has the ability and looks hard to top. ROMEO JAVELIN (6) was a superb 28.83 winner at this track last start. Top win latest and rates a key player again. FABULOUS REQUEST (4) hit the ground running to win over the 480m at this track two runs back then raced on speed again when finishing second at this track last start. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last start despite being beaten. Expecting another good run. ROMEO LIGHTNING (5) is in form and worth thought again.

Had won two on end but missed the hat-trick last start when second and beaten a nose (28.84) in an A2 over 480m at this track. Prepared to give her another chance.
