Newcastle Race 2 - Skyfall Standardbreds Pace
WALTER WARLOCK (5) did a good job to come from the back row for third over at this venue last week. Yet to win over this longer distance but is suited returning to the front line. KING HIT NZ (10) took advantage of the ace draw when successful at his most recent outing by 2.5 metres in a breakthrough win at this venue. Draws on the inside of the second this time but is lightly raced with upside so could go on with it. SPIRIT KING (9) is looming as a threat after another good effort effort last start, racing parked for second. Draws for a trail and is going well having finished top-three the last six time he raced here, winning three. ILLAWONG DANNY (6) owns a good record here and could show his best returning to the front line.

Two back was well beaten into sixth after being driven well back, behind Farfalla Stride at Menangle over 1609m in a 4yo+ No NR on March 7 at $17. Then a handy effort when beaten by 8 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Constantina at this track over 1609m in a NR up to 62 on March 13 at $8.50. Among the major players.
