Newcastle Bags Race 3

Greyhounds Make Great Pets Stakes

Stake: $897

LINKS GINOLA (2) has a strong record here with three wins and three placings from nine starts. Recorded a 3.5 lengths win (25.90) in a OR last time at Star Pelaw. Looks a leading chance on best. LIGHTFOOT CLARK (3) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fourth (29.52) last time in an A3 at this track. Has a good record here at this journey. Has the ability to give this a shake. HIGHVIEW MENTOR (4) is a talented type and proved too classy last time to win by 0.8 lengths at this track in a handy 29.61 beating Highview Joey. Some good form is emerging from his last run. Will go close again if runs up to latest. CROKERS MIMI (5) was out of the money two runs back then improved sharply last time to score at this track over 480m (29.17). Rises a grade but expected to measure up.
