Newcastle Bags Race 7 - The Delvin Cat Retirement Race
SLINGSHOT BLUE (4) Nice run placing 3rd last run around here in 29.15s. Possesses very good closing speed. Has to be included. BALLYCIAN BABY (1) Flashed home late into 3rd last run at this track in 29.17s and demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Not out of this. VELVET BLACK (2) Kept chasing when 4th last start around here. Will be motoring home late. Include in chances. LUMP ON COL (5) Displayed potential when winning last run at this venue. Should be swooping on the field late. Keep in mind.
