Newcastle Race 9 - The Tab App Pace
CHANGES (1) gave his opponents no chance last start when he cruised to a 20 metres victory over 1609m at Tamworth. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Finds a nice race and will take plenty of beating once more. SIERRA MIST (2) finished ninth last start over 1609m at Tamworth, beaten 170 metres, after a strong win at this track the run prior. Has the benefit of a good draw. Her last run should be overlooked. Good enough to put herself back in the winners' stall. STAY FOOLISH (7) disappointed last time when ninth over 1609m at this track. Can make amends. RAINBOW TITAN (5) is in the mix if he can recapture the form from two starts back that saw him score over 1980m at Tamworth.

Last start won by 20 m as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr2) at Tamworth (1:55.70) beating Birubi Boogie in 2yo on August 20 at $1.60 at the bell was leading 6.54. Strips fitter third-up and is expected to go on with the job.

Failed to impress last start; 9th (Fr4) over 1609m at Tamworth well beaten by Blackmirra (1:56.30) on August 6 at $2.25. Showed ability the run before when she came from midfield and posted a big 5.5 m win (Sr2) at this track (2:30.00) beating Reasonably Sweet in on July 27 at $23 at the bell was 5th-7.71. Can bounce back.

Returns from the paddock. At the latest first-up run 3rd (Fr1) over 1609m at this track beaten 20 m by Ire Of The Dragon (1:56.70) on June 2 2025 at $71. Has been sharpened up at the trials but may still need the run.

Showed ability the run before when he raced just off the speed and boxed on; posted a big 3.5 m win when quickly away, (Fr5) at Tamworth (2:26.80) beating Jimmy Steel in on August 20 at $6 at the bell was 2nd-2.7.
