Newcastle Bags Race 3 - Follow Newcastle Greyhounds On Facebook Stakes

CROOKS SAMBUCA (2) is an honest type in the frame at eight of 18 starts including last time when third (29.45) over 480m at this track. Expected to feature in the finish. FOOLED AGAIN (4) held a forward position from trap five but began to paddle on the bend and drifted out of the finish when 5th at this track in A2 company. Solid record here at the distance winning eight races. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Can do much better this time. DROOPYS COACH (3) was well in the market last time but only managed fourth (29.34), beaten 5 lengths. Finished third the start before. Has never missed the frame from seven starts from this draw, including two wins. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. FABULOUS KIRA (5) gets a chance to improve on an unplaced run at her latest outing at this circuit.
