Newcastle Race 4 - Peter Payne Wonder Years 3Yo Pace
LOCHINVAR MARCELLO (9) came from this barrier when he scored by 2 metres last week. That victory meant he has won the last two times he has attempted this circuit and distance. Can do it again. LEWIE KELLY (6) has been solid in finishing midfield in all three runs so far this campaign, coming from this barrier when 5.6 metres off LOCHINVAR MARCELLO last week. Building in fitness so could finish closer. SILENT FEARS (8) draws wider but should strip fitter for a resuming win by 3.3 metres at this circuit and distance. CANTPLZA MALTEEZA (4) is worth including off a second here two back.

Didn't do much last start, was well back in the run when 9th (Fr6) over 1720m at Penrith, beaten 50 m by Threetwonine (2:05.30) in 3yo NMT1W/TS on May 7 at $41. Before that surrendered the lead and finished 7th (Fr5) over 1609m after showing early pace at this track, at the bell was 5th-6.94 beaten 7 m by Lochinvar Leader (1:55.90) in 3yo NMT1W/TS on May 1 at $4. Hard to have on those efforts.
