Newcastle Bags Race 4 - @NewcastleDogs On Twitter Stakes
NOW WERE FLYIN (6) was in the placings last time but shapes well for this on her strong win the start prior, getting around this track over 480m in 29.11. Expected to push the clock again here. VELVET BLACK (2) turned in a solid run last start over 480m at this track finishing 4th and beaten only 2 lengths (29.21). Has ability and is one of the better chances. ROMEO ELITE (5) followed a moderate fourth at this track two runs ago with another plain effort last time to finish fifth, beaten 4.5 lengths, in an A2 at this track over 480m (29.50). This easier so don't rule him out. WIPE THE SLATE (3) is a last-start placegetter from this box – sure to have admirers.

In the money two back then disappointed when he finished 4th on March 28 over 480m at this track behind Alnwick Nidge beaten 2 lengths (29.21) in an A3. Thereabouts of late and rates highly this line-up. Expected to be in the finish.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to be beaten just 1.3 lengths into third over 480m at this track. Heading in the right direction and well placed to be very competitive.

Handy type with a solid strike-rate. Winner two back then well fancied last time and could manage only second over 480m at this track in 29.23. In form and can return to the winners' list.
