Newcastle Bags Race 5 - Newcastle Greyhounds On Sky Sports Racing Stakes

DAUNTING TASK (3) is long overdue for a win, finishing in the minors at his last three starts, the latest jumping from this same trap when second in a HCP at this track (28.99). Has the ability and looks a key chance. A BIT OF NOAH (2) stuck on well last time to finish 1.3 lengths back in second (29.29) at this track in a HCP over 480m. Leading player again. EDEN RONALDO (6) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fifth (30.22) in an A7 at this track. Expected to give a good account. HIGHCLERE COUGAR (4) placed last time out at this track and distance - worth considering.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just 1.3 lengths into second over 480m at this track. Sure to be in the mix again.
