Newcastle Bags Race 4 - @Newcastledogs On Twitter Stakes

A BIT OF BETSY (1) finds it hard to win. Finished in the money last time though when second (29.25) at this track. Form from her last run is proving to be solid. One of the leading chances. ALWAYS KIDDING (2) was a winner two back but last start drifted back and wound up strongly to finish a 5 length third at this track (29.68). Leading chance again. MIDAS MIGUEL (5) has top-three aspirations after placing last time. ALNWICK GEM (4) latest effort finished 4th over 480m at this track beaten 9 lengths (30.01) behind Wor Cilla in an A6 on April 25. Looks suited here and can measure up.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to be beaten just a neck into second over 480m at this track. Hard to make a case on this occasion.

Finished fourth two starts ago then regained form last time out when he found one better over 480m in an A6 at this track. Put the writing on the wall last start so follow him up.

Turned in a better effort over 480m at this track last start, finishing third behind Blackhouseharper in an A6. Capable of playing a big role.
