Newcastle Bags Race 12 - The Future Of Racing: Pgr Tv Stakes

SLINGSHOT CLYDE (5) wasn't far away at the finish when 4th and beaten only 2 lengths (29.60) at this track. Should bounce back. MEDUSA (3) is a capable type and proved too classy last time to win by 1.5 lengths at this track in a handy 29.59 beating Alnwick Alisha. The form from her last run is stacking up nicely. Sure to be thereabouts. SHORTEN THE TALE (1) has a strong record this trip with three wins and two placings from eight starts. Comes off a (29.91) win last time, scoring by 4.5 lengths in an A7 over 480m at this track. Makes strong appeal on best. A BIT OF HUNTER (4) can return to form after missing the top-three at this circuit last time out.

Could only manage fifth last time out over 480m at this track, adding to some plain results of late. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.
