Newcastle Race 8 - Alabar Australia Pace
KATLAS DREAM (1) turned in another strong performance last time when she battled on bravely to just miss out over 1609m at this track. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meets a comparable field and she can figure in the finish. WAR WESTERN (6) is better than his last-start ninth over 1609m at this track. Worth another chance. ROCKIN BULL (4) last appeared when runner-up over 2200m at Ballarat 12 weeks ago. Must be respected. MISTER CHEESE (5) may prove hard to beat again backing up from a win at Tamworth last Thursday.

Two back was beaten by 9 m finishing fourth after a quick start, behind Yesnomaybeso at this track over 1609m in a NR 50 to 54 on January 19 at $7. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3.5 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Spirit King at this track over 1609m in a NR up to 47 on January 28 at $7.50. Should get her chance from this draw.

Last start 9th (Sr3) over 1609m at this track, beaten 40 m by Sweet Rocky (1:53.70) in 4yo+ NR up to 55 on January 28 at $81. Two runs back was driven from back in the field when 6th (Fr7) over 1609m at this track was 7th-9.78 at the bell, beaten 19 m by Yesnomaybeso (1:56.80) in NR 50 to 54 on January 19 at $51. This looks a tough task.

Resuming after a spell of 12 weeks. Finished off last campaign when beaten by 5 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Montana Pride at Ballarat over 2200m in a NR 50 to 55 on November 20 at $21. Looking for a strong return.

Last start won a big 5.5 m win after showing early speed, (Fr3) at Tamworth (1:55.90) beating Brave Bondi in NR up to 55 on February 5 at $4.60 at the bell was leading 2.78. Looks hard to beat again.

Last start was well beaten into ninth after being driven well back, behind Always Thunder at this track over 1609m in a NR up to 58 on January 3 at $26. Performed better the start before where he won by 1.0 m after showing early speed, (Fr2) at this track (2:26.20) beating Royal Gamble in NR up to 52 on December 20 at $11 at the bell was leading 3.4. Worth another chance.
