Newcastle Race 8 - The Tab App Pace
BELIEVE IN CARMER (3) produced a good effort for fifth in a stronger race last start. Looks suited dropping to maiden company having finished runner-up at this circuit and distance the only time she raced at that level. Should get her chance from a good draw. DAZZLING GEMS (4) was solid again when fourth last week to follow on from back-to-back placings at this venue. Expect her to pose a serious challenge. GOLDNGLITZ (8) had to work last time but had put together a string of top-four finishes prior so is worth another chance despite the wide draw. SIERRA MIST (2) will be fitter for recent racing and could be competitive from the good draw.
