Newcastle Bags Race 7 - The Harry Burton Trophy - Heat One

JACKTAVERN LAB (5) shapes as hard to beat after winning last start over the 480m at this track in a swift 29.04. In form and looks the one to beat again. BORN SCOOBY (2) pinged the lids from the inside draw and led until late, finishing second and beaten half a length (29.38) at Doncaster in a OR over 483m. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and two minor placings to his credit. Winning chance. UNANIMOUS LEON (1) comes off an average effort last start when fifth at Sunderland over 450m behind Slingshot Poppy (27.76) in a OR3. Placed at his previous run. Worth following up. DROOPYS TRIGGER (4) followed a unplaced effort at Towcester two back with a sound second, beaten 1.5 lengths, last start in a OR at Doncaster over 483m (29.67). Worth another chance this far easier line-up.

Was out of the placings last time over 450m at Sunderland (27.76) in a OR3, beaten 13 lengths. Strong record at this track and trip with four wins and six placings from 12 starts. With even luck and a clean start he should be thereabouts.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just 1.5 lengths into second over 483m at Doncaster. Cannot be taken lightly based on that sound recent effort.
