Newcastle Bags Race 8 - Follow Newcastle Greyhounds On Facebook Stakes

BRAMBLE TANGO (6) has been hot and cold of late in handicaps. Won two back when jumped from scratch at this track then finished fourth at his latest appearance off scratch at this track over 480m (29.76). Takes on another handicap here and breaks from the back. Overall a talented handicapper who has eight wins and 10 placings from 28 runs from the staggered start. On his best form is the one they have to overcome. FABULOUS LEONA (4) looks close to win after hitting the frame last run (29.35) at this track in an A4. Has first look at trap 4 this time. Solid record at the distance winning two races. Expected to feature. HIGHCLERE COUGAR (2) is mixing his form recently. Nice effort to finish third two runs back at this track then switched to the handicaps when starting off scratch and finished fourth, beaten 4 lengths, at this track over 480m (29.82). Tackles another handicap here and will start off 6m. Best form stacks up well. WRAYSBURY VENUS (1) makes her debut in a handicap and jumps with a 7m advantage. Returned with a moderate fourth, beaten 3 lengths, (30.00) at this track over 480m. Can run a cheeky race this line-up.

Yet to break through after two starts but hasn't been too far away. Solid last time when on speed early before fading to finish fourth (30.00) at this track over 480m. Likely to be much improved on the experience. Looks a solid hope.

Followed an unplaced run at this track two starts ago with a sound third, beaten 1.0 lengths, last start in an A4 at this track over 480m (29.51). Decent form of late but faces a stiffer test this time.
