Newcastle Race 1 - Sky Racing Active Pace
SOME CHEVRON (10) made a winning start for the new stable when he led and fought well to score narrowly at Penrith. Cops a tougher draw on the second row but should be fitter so can go on with it. DANCE WITH CARMER (4) is racing in fine form having come from wider barriers than this to win his last two outings at this circuit. Goes up in grade but could well land the hat trick. TERROR EYES (8) draws wide but should be peaking now and is looming as a threat after a good effort last start, working from a back row draw for third at Penrith. SKY CITY (2) resumes after three-and-a-half months but was readied with a solid trial and draws well.

Last preparation only had 2 starts before going for a break. Returned to racing with a handy win by a nose as favourite when quickly away, (Fr2) at Penrith (2:04.30) beating Bolero in NR up to 55 on April 17 at $1.70 at the bell was leading 2.8m on the pegs. Strips fitter and can go on with it.
