Newcastle Race 7 - Hunter Signs Pace
GUNFIGHTERSGHOST (4) made it two wins from his last four appearances two weeks ago, getting home by 5 metres over 1609m at this track. Meets a similar line up so he can keep the ball rolling. LADY DELORIS (10) recorded a strong performance last time when she battled on bravely to just miss out over 1609m at this track. Won't spend a penny from this draw but luck may play a role on the bell lap. Big chance in a similar line-up. LOUIGI (9) last appeared when fourth over 1609m at this track five months ago. Look out for any positive market movement. WHENS LUNCH (2) ended last prep with a seventh at Tamworth over 1980m four months ago. Can open this campaign with a more positive effort.

Comes here second-up after a month. Lacklustre first-up performance when 9th (Fr2) over 1609m at this track beaten 45 m by Sky City (1:53.50) on May 15 at $26. This looks a far sterner task.
