Newcastle Race 5 - Christmas Parties At Newcastle Racecourse Nursery
PROFITABILITY (2) Nice run when 3rd last run at Hamilton but bit of extra work to do with more weight. Expect to go close. LIVEADREAM (4) Below par performance when 5th last start at Musselburgh but stepping down to a lower level. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Gets a favourable draw. Must respect in this event. EEVEE STAR (1) Only fair when 7th last start at Catterick but taking on easier opposition. This field suits. KAIULANI SPIRIT (8) Not up to scratch when 9th last start at Beverley but facing weaker opposition. Don't leave out of trifectas.

Jumped at $15.00 and ordinary performance when 7th last start at Catterick but up against a less challenging field. Rates as one of the key chances.

Tidy run when 3rd last run at Hamilton but carrying more weight than last time. Very capable of taking this out.

At $19.00 mediocre attempt when 7th last run at Lingfield but will appreciate the drop in class. Will have to carry more weight. Prefer in an easier race.

Started at $15.00 and fairly underwhelming when 5th last start at Musselburgh but competing in an easier class. Should come to hand quickly. Has a good draw. Serious contender.

Started $21.00 and gave away some ground when 7th last run at Beverley. Racing for a new trainer. Has early speed and positions nicely. Few more classier types in this race.

At $101.00 below standard effort when 8th last time at Doncaster but has minimal work to do from the draw. Likely to get back. Looks to be in trouble.

Jumped at $15.00 and didn't attack the line when 9th last start at Beverley but will find this grade more suitable. Down in distance. Difficult to warm to at present.
