Newcastle Race 6 - Grace Panella Racing Pace
JACKS UP (9) finished fifth at Tamworth two runs ago before finishing fourth at his latest appearance over 1609m at Tamworth, beaten 6 metres. Should enjoy a nice smother from this draw and will be looking for a split at some stage. Meets some better types this time but a better run is on the cards. FAY IRENE (1) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 7 metres from the winner in fourth over 1609m at this track. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Good enough to win a race of this calibre. KATLAS DREAM (10) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by a nose at this track over 1609m. SMOOTH ROLLING (4) is open to further improvement at his third run back from a spell after scoring last time out over 1609m at this track.

Two back was well beaten into seventh after being driven well back, after a quick start, behind Katlas Dream at this track over 1609m in a NR 44 to 48 on August 19 at $23. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4 m finishing second behind Tough Talks at this track over 2030m in a NR up to 48 on August 22 at $10. Drawn to advantage and among the chances again.

Two back was well beaten into eighth behind Gotonebettor at Tamworth over 1980m in a NR up to 48 on August 14 at $34. Then a handy effort when beaten by 8 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Smooth Rolling at this track over 1609m in a NR 40 to 43 on August 19 at $6. Has a low draw and will go well again.
