Newcastle Bags Race 5 - The Arena Racing Company Standard

SOLE MIO (3) boasts a consistent overall record including four wins from 14 starts, but missed the frame latest when sixth (29.97) over 503m at Shelbourne Park. Well placed here and can go close with a clear run. GREENWELL CRAZY (2) took advantage of a low draw last start with an all-the-way win (29.40) at Doncaster in a OR over 483m. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and three minor placings to his credit. Looks a key chance if runs up to latest figure. DELVIN CAT (5) has a strong record this track and trip with 24 wins and 21 placings from 61 starts. Scored by 3.5 lengths last time (28.88) in an A2 over 480m at this track. Looks a key chance on best figures. UNTOLD ARIARY (6) comes here off a handy fourth in 28.75 latest. Don't underestimate on that time.
