Newcastle Bags Race 12 - #Lovethedogs Stakes
BILLYS BAKER (3) had the drop on the lead and went on to be beaten 4 lengths into second (29.49) at this track in an A5 over 480m. Can measure up this time. ALNWICK BARNEY (6) had been racing in honest fashion recording four placings in a row before finishing fifth (29.79) at this track latest. One of the main contenders. ROMEO GUSTO (5) recorded a 2.25 lengths third in an A5 last time 29.78 at this track and trip and also jumping from the same draw. Should be in this for a long way. FREEDOM SEEKER (2) has claims if she runs up to her best.

Racing consistently, including a win two back at this track, before a 4 length second (29.49) over 480m at this track last time. Rates highly and looks tough to beat.

Could only manage sixth last time out over 640m at this track, adding to some plain results of late. Doesn't profile as a likely winner.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish third over 480m at this track. The recent effort suggests he is a genuine hope.

Latest effort finished 5th over 480m at this track beaten 7 lengths (29.79) behind Solway Jet in an A5 on March 4. Around the mark two starts back. Winning chance on that form.
