Newcastle Bags Race 7 - Arena Racing Company Stakes

TOO FUNKY (1) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing fifth (29.72) in an A4 at this track. Key runner on his best form. ALNWICK AVA (3) pinged the lids and led for most of the way to hold a minor placing when second and beaten a neck (29.47) at this track in an A4 over 480m. Can measure up. PATRIOT MISSILE (6) missed the frame two runs back then won at his latest appearance by a head at this track over 480m (29.27). Up a notch here but latest effort enough to test this field. BRAMBLE TESSIE (4) should be thereabouts despite an unplaced run here most recently.

Finished sixth two starts ago then regained form last time out when he found a couple better over 480m in an A4 at this track. Heading in the right direction and well placed to fill another top-three spot.
