Newcastle Bags Race 12 - #Lovethedogs Stakes
STRICTLY VITO (5) was never in contention last time at this track, but prior to that won by half a length at this track (29.42) beating Proud One in an A7 on September 26. Can make amends. BLOODLINE (3) has shown good improvement at his last two starts, hitting the frame latest when 2nd at this track over 480m. Has a solid record from this box including two wins and a minor placing. Leading chance. A BIT OF HUNTER (4) took the sit on the lead but levelled up to score (29.51) at this track in an A6 over 480m. Expected to measure up again. DEELISH DIVA (6) has strong claims after leading and holding on for a top-three finish last time out.

Got back early in the race last start when sixth over 640m at this track. Before that won by a head at this track (29.52) beating A Bit Of Trudy in an A7 on September 22. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.

Settled off speed but got home well on debut to finish third (26.43) over 435m at Star Pelaw. Looks tested this line-up without further improvement.
