Newcastle Race 7 - Bonvilla Estate Pace
MISTER BRILLANTE (6) found winning form here two back then produced another strong performance last time when he battled on bravely to just miss out by a neck. Tackles a similar assignment and he can take this out. ULTIMATE RHAPSODY (5) had to work when parked last time so did well to stick on and finish fourth. Placed in two of his previous three outings here so could be close to a win. GRACE SHANNON (9) steps out for a new yard but brings decent form, winning two back at Bathurst two back before a respectable third at her most recent appearance at Tamworth. Draws for a trail and could measure up. FORESIGHT (4) is in the mix following a respectable second at her most recent appearance at Penrith.

Two back was well beaten into seventh after a quick start, behind Mizzz Adele at Penrith over 1720m in a NR up to 58 M on February 12 at $9. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.75 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Miss Blue Stork at Penrith over 1720m in a NR up to 45 on March 2 at $7. One of the better chances.
