Newcastle Race 1 - Medowie Lodge Pace
MAJOR ICON (2) is working up to a win having gone under by a narrow margin when placed in his last two outings at Penrith. Draws well again and should be at peak fitness now so can break through. FIRST CLASS (3) made it back-to-back seconds when he stepped out for a new yard and finished 6.7m away here last week. Led from wider there so could take advantage of a lower draw and go one better. GUNFORHIRE (1) scored last week at Penrith to make it two wins from his last three starts, both from wider barriers. Up in grade but is aided by the ace draw. LIGHTNING BOB (7) is another last-start winner who also came from this barrier to score here three back so respect.
