Newcastle Race 3 - Hunter Prostate Cancer Alliance Pace
FLARE UP (2) finished fourth at this track two runs ago before a comparable effort at her latest appearance over 2030m at this track, beaten 6 metres. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Meets a comparable field, and she can take this out. MATT GREGORS BOY (9) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 1.5 metres from the winner in second over 1609m at this track. Gets a soft run on the inside of the second line but may need luck at some point. Meets a comparable field and he can figure in the finish. ULTRA BLISS (4) is looming as a real threat after a better effort last start, finishing second at this track over 2030m. STEALTH BOMBA (8) is the next elect off a last-start win by 1.1 metres at this track over 2030m. Stick with him.

Didn't do much last start, 5th (Fr5) over 1609m at this track was 4th-5.8m 2WWC at the bell, beaten 8 m by Beersinmypocket (1:55.80) in NR 49 to 50 on March 3 at $31. Before that 9th (Fr6) over 1609m at this track, well beaten by Ideal Mondo (1:56.90) in NR up to 48 on February 21 at $15. Must improve sharply.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 1.1 m second behind Stealth Bomba at this track over 2030m NR up to 55 last start. Before that was beaten 5 metres fourth again at this track over 1609m in NR 56 to 60 on March 17. Should go well again off the same draw.

Resumes. At the latest first-up run 2nd (Sr1) over 2030m at this track, beaten a nose by Our Ideal Dream (2:28.00) in NR up to 60 on September 23 at $51. Has only trialled once and might need this pipe-opener.

Failed to impress last start; was well back in the run when 7th (Fr8) over 2030m at this track beaten 11 m by Stealth Bomba (2:28.70) in NR up to 55 on March 21 at $7.50. Showed ability the run before when he won by 2.5 m (Fr5) at this track (1:54.30) beating Abstract Art in NR up to 53 on March 13 at $5.50 at the bell was leading 1.1m on the pegs. A big run would not surprise.

Two back was well beaten into fourth after a quick start, behind Luke John at this track over 2030m in a NR up to 55 on February 21 at $4.40. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.5 m finishing second behind Johnson Step at this track over 1609m in a NR up to 60 on March 21 at $8.50. Leading contender again.
