Newcastle Race 6 - Hunter Signs Pace
PEPPI GRATZ (4) is on a quick back-up after finishing fourth at Bankstown on Monday, beaten less than 6m. Came from the back row to win at Tamworth at his previous appearance. This suits so could find himself back in the winners' stall. KEAYANG HARLOW (1) wasn't disgraced in a stronger line-up last start and had broken her maiden with a win at this circuit and distance prior. Draws to play a role. RONNYS WATCHING (10) may need some luck rom this draw but if it comes his way he is a player off his win at this circuit and distance two back. JIMMY STEEL NZ (3) was runner-up here three back and could be competitive from this draw.

Showed ability the run before when he won by a neck as favourite (Fr6) at this track (1:56.50) beating Wicked Legend in 0-1 WIN on February 23 at $2.80 at the bell was 3rd-2.35. Contender.
