Newcastle Race 7 - Billy Goat Catering Pace
WHITBYS DELIGHT NZ (7) did a good job in a higher-graded race last week, leading from a similar draw and sticking on for fourth. Draws out but has the speed to get across and will enjoy the class drop. MY KGARI (1) made a winning start for the new stable, getting home by 1.4m at this venue. Should get the favours from the ace draw so could go on with it. MAYWYNS MIGHTY MAC (3) hasn't been far from the placings in his last two outings at this venue, drawing much wider and racing parked but boxing on last week. UPSTREAM (5) came from this barrier to be beaten only 2m last week and was placed here prior. Can go well again.
