Newcastle Race 3 - Happy 50th Birthday Scott Simpson Pace

BOLD MEDLEY JUJON NZ (3) has not raced for four months but looks forward enough for the return after a minor placing in a recent trial. Showed ability with a city win last time in and is likely to get the favours from this nice draw. TOMAHAWK BART (5) has been racing well at Menangle, finishing second over this distance last start. That was was his second placing from the last three outings. Looks well placed so can play a major role. WALTER WARLOCK (6) is first up for nine weeks but owns a decent fresh record and was readied with a trial win so can open this campaign with a positive effort. WILLIAM AITCH (8) has joined Rickie Alchin since last seen and trialled well in the city so could measure up.

Two back was well beaten into fourth after being driven well back, behind Lewie Kelly at this track over 2030m on July 10 at $21. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4 m finishing third behind Pops Joy at this track over 2030m on July 17 at $15. Draws for a good showing.

Failed to impress last start; 10th (Fr2) over 2270m at Riverina Paceway, beaten 45 m by Jilliby Ryder (2:44.50) on July 3 at $23. Showed ability the outing before when he won by 1.5 m after showing early speed, (Fr1) at Riverina Paceway (2:05.70) beating Ebony Karalta in on May 5 at $7.50 at the bell was 4th-4. Draws wide but has trialled well for the new yard so could make an immediate impact.
