Newcastle Bags Race 5 - The Flying Dutchman Trophy

PRIVATE EXPRESS (1) wasn't far away at the finish when 5th and beaten only 5 lengths (29.98) at this track. Tough to beat if on-song. SHEBAS SHINE (2) had some strong recent form but was below best last time when sixth (30.59) in an A7 at this track. Generally fast to begin but was always well back despite the low draw last time. Has a good record here at this journey. Has won two of four starts from this draw. Key player if finds best. STRICTLY VITO (5) followed a moderate sixth at this track two runs ago with another plain effort last time to finish fourth, beaten 2 lengths, in an A6 at this track over 480m (29.79). No surprise to see him back in form. MCDARA JULIE (3) has ability and can feature with the right run after missing a cheque here most recently.
