Newcastle Bags Race 8 - Follow Newcastle Greyhounds On Facebook Stakes
VINEGARHILL RHYS (6) has a strong record here with three wins and two placings from eight starts. In the money last time at this track (29.56) in a HCP, finishing a 6 length third. Looks a key chance on best form. MEDUSA (4) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing sixth (29.60) last time in a HCP at this track. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings two times from four starts. Worth following up. ALNWICK KENNY (2) found the frame for the second consecutive time when narrowly beaten into third last time out (17.65) over 290m at this track. Can turn it around this time. DRUMNAFERN BLAZE (3) is worth another chance despite missing the top-three here most recently.

Got back early in the race last start when third over 480m at this track. Before that won by 1.5 lengths at this track (29.42) beating Tetra Cruising in a HCP on June 16. Others hold stronger claims.
