Newcastle Race 8 - Horsepower (Bm64)
COLUMBUS (4) lightly raced gelding resuming from a lengthy break. Rewarded for his consistency at his third race start with a dominant on-pace win over 1600m at Hawkesbury in a Super Mdn last October. Primed with the two searching trials and gets his chance from the good draw. ROMA GREEN (7) had to work hard from the outside gate second-up with a tiring fourth over 1200m at this track as an easing fav. Can hold a position over the extra distance and run a much better race. TURBULENT (9) lines up for the hat-trick today after registering a strong win from back in the field over 1280m at Muswellbrook. Gets in light with the claim and will be doing his best work late. THREE ARROWS (3) has been thereabouts in town at his last two outings and should be near his top here fourth-up. Will need luck from the gate but get the services of Zac Lloyd. Each way.

Chasing a hat-trick. Most recently won by a long-neck at Muswellbrook Bm66 July 7 over 1280m on a rain affected track defeating Prorata carrying 58kg at $7. The start before that came home strongly from last on the turn and won by 3 len at Narromine Ctry Bm66 June 22 over 1300m on a heavy track defeating Wolf Club carrying 55kg at $3.90. This is a tougher race but you can't knock winning form.
