Newcastle Bags Race 3 - Arena Racing Company Standard
BLACKHOUSE LEWI (2) had won three in a row before finishing fourth (29.07) last time at this track. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. BALLYMAC BUDDY (1) finished in the placings last time but could not have been more impressive before that in his superb 27.16 win at Sunderland over 450m. Top win two back and can measure up again. DROOPYS LINK (6) jumped from this trap and placed but in quick time latest (27.17) at Sunderland over 450m in a OR3. Harder here but will be in this for a long way. SLINGSHOT LOUIE (3) is worth another chance despite missing the top-three here most recently.

Could only manage fifth last time out over 480m at this track (29.08) in a OR. Strong record at this track and trip with five wins and five placings from 14 starts. Looks one of the chances.
