Newcastle Bags Race 5 - Greyhounds Make Great Pets Stakes

COOLAVANNY KEN (6) is long overdue for a win and in super consistent form, jumping from this trap to place last time at this track (29.12), making it four straight minors. Has the ability and expected to go close. SWIFT BECAUSE (2) drew this same trap last time when in the minors (29.15) in an A2 over 480m at this track. Leading player again. BRAMBLE SHELBY (4) stalked the lead from trap four before hitting the front turning and lifting to score (28.86) at this track in an A3 over 480m. Won at his only start from this box. Shapes as a top winning chance on latest effort. CROOKS GUCCI (3) cannot be overlooked following a recent top-three finish as public elect.

Finished fifth two starts ago then regained form last time out when she found one better over 480m in an A2 at this track. May find this a bit too tough.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish third over 480m at this track. Cannot be ignored based on that sound recent effort.
