Newcastle Race 7 - Skyfall Standardbreds 3Yo Nsw Bred Pace

FEARFUL (2) comes here following a fourth behind Bogdanavic at Group Two level six-and-a-half months ago over 1609m at Menangle. The one to beat from an ideal draw. NOTHING FINER (5) is a talented colt first up from a break of seven months who generally comes to hand quickly and is yet to taste defeat when resuming. Scored a fine win over 1730m at Bathurst at the first run back from a break last time in work. Has the right credentials to play a major role. SAN SEBASTIAN (6) is worth thought after finishing fourth first-up over 1609m at Menangle last time out. Will find this assignment a touch easier. LOCHINVAR MARCELLO (4) is the best of the rest after finishing third when resuming over 1609m at Menangle last time out. Strips fitter now.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 4th (Fr6) over 1609m after being wide early at Menangle, at the bell was 7th-14.09 beaten 14 m by Fake Friends (1:51.90) in 3yo 0Ws/TS on March 24 at $2.60. Two runs back ran on strong from last on the turn and won by 6 m (Fr8) at this track (1:55.20) beating Eye Can Ear Amour in NR up to 55 on October 3 at $2.40 at the bell was 8th-22m+. Strips fitter and is a solid top-three chance.
