Newcastle Race 3 - Mai-Wel Super Mdn Hcp
ADAPTATION (4) progressed nicely beaten 1.5 lengths here stepping up to 1500m. Will have taken further fitness and learning and is drawn to advantage. The in-form Latham rides for the first time. SUN TO ME (6) led and found one 1L too good here, heavily bet over 1500m. Is busting to win and has a handy 2kg claim and a positive gate. Will give a big sight again. PEPE (9) presents third-up for the Waller yard and forgive the latest here when he had no luck. Has more up the sleeve and has to be considered. Ditto stablemate VELARIS (3), who is an improver better suited at the provincials. Races handy and is ready for the mile. GARRIX (5) from the same yard comes back a bit in trip. His effort two back at Kembla Grange hinted at better things to come.
