Newcastle Race 3 - Mmb Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
ONE OF THE BOYS (3) Couldn't maintain the pace when 4th last run at Doncaster. Likely to bounce back and matched against lesser competition. Should be going forward early. Showing good ability this preparation. Should take beating. BRASH (1) Hit the line well when 2nd beaten by nearly 7L last time here and competing in a lower grade. Won't be far away during the run. One of the major players. ELITE APPROACH (2) Was getting tired late when 4th last start at Southwell and drops back to a suitable class. Coming back in trip. Will have to carry extra weight. Solid place bet prospects. WHATEVER BRUCE (4) Appeared lacklustre when 6th last time here but taking on a lower class of opponents. Will be giving the leaders a big start. Place chance.

Zipped home into 2nd last time here and stepping down to a lower level. Should race on the speed. Entitled to be respected in betting.

Couldn't find the line when 4th last start at Southwell and challenged by less formidable competitors. Dropping back to a shorter trip. Goes up in weight. Watch the betting.

Odds of $4.00 and tailed off to finish 4th last run at Doncaster. Likely to bounce back and up against a less competitive field. Has plenty of early speed. Strong claims and hard to beat.

At $67.00 tailed off when 6th last time here but back in an easier grade. Likely to get back. Looks highly doubtful.

Odds of $201.00 and chased well when 4th last run at the track and lining up against easier rivals. Has drawn the rails. Not interested.
