Newcastle Bags Race 4 - @NewcastleDogs On Twitter Stakes

STRICTLY ALIJAZ (4) improved his time on first attempt here at the trip with a 3 length third in 30.19 latest. Should be in this for a long way. DROMBEG OLIVE (6) is down a grade after missing the frame two back at this track then finished third at her latest appearance in an A7 at this track over 480m (29.96). Heading in right direction and well placed here. Leading player. BALLYCIAN MO (1) is down a grade after finishing fourth two starts back at this track then was again out of the placings at her latest appearance in an A7 at this track over 480m (30.80). Can bounce back this company. CANNY ADELAIDE (5) can return to form after missing the top-three at this circuit last time out.

Turned in a better effort over 480m at this track last start, finishing third behind Dower Skippy in an A7. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Well-performed from this trap. Key chance on best form.
