Newcastle Race 2 - Nutrien Equine Standardbred Sales Pace
MY LADY SARAH (1) was out of the money two runs ago then overcame a break to finish third, beaten 2 metres, over 1609m at this track eight days ago. Has the benefit of a good draw and rates a big chance again in a similar assignment. SINBINNED (3) finished second last start, beaten 1.5 metres, in a nice return to form here over 1609m. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Recent efforts are good enough to take out a race like this. LOVE LOU (2) ended last prep with a sixth at this venue over 1609m six months ago. Capable of a forward showing while fresh. PEPPA BLISS (9) is in the mix following a fourth at her most recent appearance over 1609m at this circuit. One for the exotics players.

Two back was well beaten into ninth after a quick start, behind Louigi at this track over 2030m in a NR up to 47 on April 4 at $15. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2 m finishing third behind Melfield Soryt at this track over 1609m in a NR up to 58 M on April 11 at $6.50. Strong winning hope.

Didn't do much at the last run, 5th (Fr1) over 2030m at this track, beaten 10 m by Matt Gregors Boy (2:27.90) in NR up to 57 on April 11 at $9.
