Newcastle Bags Race 1 - Newcastle Greyhounds Spring Handicap Competition

WORKING BOOTS (3) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fourth (29.67) in an A5 at this track. Has a good record here at this journey. Should be very hard to beat this time. ALNWICK NEWS (2) returned a better run last time, finishing in the money (29.60) at this track behind Inclement Mist in an A7. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Bold showing expected. HARDWICK ATHENA (5) has missed the frame the last couple but was an A2 winner three back (28.96) at this track over 480m. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. MOSSEND BUTE (6) is worth including after a top-three finish most recently.

Was having first try in a handicap when off the 14m mark, finishing sixth (30.23) over 480m at this track. Will enjoy the huge 20m start. Talented enough but prefer to see.

Unplaced two starts back at this track then finished runner-up at his latest appearance in an A7 at this track over 480m (29.60). Tackles a handicap here and has a 11m start on the scratch draw. Clearly the one to beat.

Makes his handicap debut and will be starting 7m from the scratch dog. Could only manage sixth last start over 480m in an A4 at this track (30.06). Has ability but looking to others.

Has struggling of late. Finished fifth two starts back at this track then when starting off scratch in a handicap and was again out of the placings at this track over 480m (29.57). Will be starting off 3m. Cannot be underestimated.

Followed an unplaced run at this track two starts ago with a sound second, beaten a nose, last start in a HCP at this track over 480m (29.38). Sure to play a major role.
