Newcastle Bags Race 8 - The Future Of Racing: Pgr Tv Stakes

CROOKS ON FIRE (2) has a terrific record this track and trip with two wins and two placings from four starts. Placed last time (28.73) at this track in a OR, finishing second and beaten one length. Looks well placed and should feature. A BIT OF BETTY (4) has been in super consistent form recently with two minors on end before missing the frame latest finishing fourth (28.95) at this track. Cannot be taken lightly. DROOPYS COACH (3) recorded a win over the 480m at this track in a useful 28.97 last start. Rates a leading chance if runs up to latest. BALROBUCK TOM (1) is worth consideration after filling a hole last start. Something for the Multiples: WIPE THE SLATE (5)

Good performance after racing on the speed to score in an A3 by 1.0 len at this track over 480m (28.95). Other runners look much more appealing.
