Newcastle Race 4 - Mitavite Pace
CONSTANTINA (1) led as favourite in a higher-graded race last start at Penrith and while she couldn't see it out she stuck on for a 2.2m third. Led from wider when winning over this distance the last time she raced here last month so can take advantage of the ace draw. SPIRIT KING (3) was solid when midfield at Menangle last start and will relish the return to this circuit having put together a string of wins and placings prior. Should get his chance from a favourable draw. WALTER WARLOCK (9) has been tackling stronger races so will enjoy the class drop. Draws for a trail and can be dangerous if he gets the gaps. THE CID (4) showed pleasing improvement last time out when he came from the outside barrier to finish runner-up at this venue. Go well again from the lower draw.

Good performance when beaten by 5 m finishing sixth after showing early speed, behind Catseye Beach at Menangle over 1609m in a NR up to 80 on February 28 at $4. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.25 m finishing third after showing early speed, behind Nosaer at Penrith over 1720m in a NR up to 67 on March 5 at $1.60. The ace draw may see her hard to beat.

Must improve sharply.

Failed to impress last start; was well back in the run when 6th (Fr4) over 1609m at Menangle, at the bell was 4th-6.61 beaten 10 m by Farfalla Stride (1:52.00) in 4yo+ No NR on March 7 at $17. Showed ability the race before when he won by 2.25 m after showing early speed, (Fr4) at this track (1:54.00) beating The Greek General in 4yo+ NR up to 70 on February 27 at $7.50. Drawn well and has strong claims.

Two back was well beaten into eighth behind Rudy Gee at this track over 2030m in a NR up to 65 on February 20 at $14. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5 m finishing second after being driven well back, behind Mcwizard at this track over 2030m in a NR up to 58 on March 6 at $21. Could go one better.

Recent efforts have been impressive. Last start by 5 m as favourite when quickly away, (Fr3) at this track (2:25.80) beating The Cid in NR up to 58 on March 6 at $1.65 at the bell was leading 1.95. Draws wider but racing well and rates highly on the latest effort.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start 9th (Fr2) over 1609m after showing early pace at this track was leading by 0.14 at the bell, beaten 19 m by Laceys Lad (1:52.80) in NR up to 90 on March 6 at $8.50. The run previous broke in score up and was out of position at the start 5th (Sr1) over 1609m at this track, beaten 13 m by Spirit King (1:54.00) in 4yo+ NR up to 70 on February 27 at $8. Better placed so certainly worth another chance.
