Newcastle Race 5 - Hunt Hospitality Super Mdn Plate
DORALEE (3) sat just off the speed then ran on stoutly but found the winner a shade too good when resuming over this course and distance a fortnight ago. Has now raced ten times for six minor placings which is a concern, but she looks to be back in great order. ALPHA ZETA (2) firmed from $2.80 into $2.20 when resuming last time out over 1100m at Hawkesbury but after being in contention on the bend didn't finish off. Sure to have more to offer and coming back to this trip might be the answer. OLE STEELE (8) resumes. Easily accounted for on debut at Listed level then filled a minor placing over this trip on a heavy track at Scone before being spelled. Trialling very well and might go to a new level this time in work. QUIET QUESTION (6) settled midfield and failed to improve on debut over 1300m at Hawkesbury recently. Odd move to come back to 900m but with winkers on he might fire up. Debutante BUNDY BELLE (7) is trialling in great style and is a real contender.

First starter. Four-year-old gelding by I Am Invincible out of Advance Party. Has not shown a great deal at the trials - prefer to see in a race before considering.

Second-up. First-up after six months sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 6th of 9 in a Prov Mdn-Sw at Hawkesbury on October 8 over 1100m, 3 len behind Stromatolite with 57kg at $2.20. Previously second-up ran last in a small field in a 3yo+ MDN-Sw at Rosehill on April 6 over 1100m, on a slow track; 7 len behind Compensation with 56.5kg at $19. Best form tops the bill so give her another chance.

Having second run back today. Last start 2nd of 9 in a Super Mdn-Sw at this track on October 17 over 900m, on a slow track; 0.7 len behind Lady Talea carrying 58kg at $3.90. At only start last preparation gave a sight but was run down late 2nd of 9 in a Mdn-Sw at Mornington on May 10 over 1000m, slow going long-neck behind Unriddle carrying 57.5kg at $2.80. Winning chance with that run under the belt.

Most recently 5th of 9 in a Super Mdn-Sw at this track on October 17 over 900m, slow going 3 len behind Lady Talea with 54.5kg at $101. The race before that 6th of 8 in a Prov Mdn at Gosford on August 28 over 1000m, slow going 5.5 len behind Shimano carrying 54kg at $41. Not keen on his chances.

At debut, 7th of 9 in a Mdn at Hawkesbury on October 8 over 1300m, 3 len behind Devil Wings carrying 58kg at $7.50. Can do better. Back sharply in trip but can improve with a couple of key gear changes.

First start. By leading sire I Am Invincible out of Miss Exfactor. Purchased for AUD $ 380,000 (Magic Millions 2025 Gold Coast Yearling Sale). Scored in her most recent trial at Rosehill so key an eye on the betting.
