Newcastle Race 1 - Sky Racing Active Pace
SPIRIT KING (10) could only manage third last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 5.5 metres, after success at the previous appearance over 1609m at this track. May need luck at some stage extracting from the inside of the second row. Can be there at the finish. MISTER QUIRK (7) ran fourth last start at Penrith over 1720m, beaten 14 metres. Expect him to pose a serious challenge. NEXT TO ME NZ (6) is in the mix following a sixth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track. BODYLINE (8) is heading the right way, improving last time out to finish third at this track over 2030m.

Didn't do much last start, 6th (Fr3) over 1609m at this track, beaten 24 m by Mister Cheese (1:53.70) in NR 51 to 54 on February 9 at $41. Before that 9th (Sr3) over 1609m at this track beaten 40 m by Sweet Rocky (1:53.70) in 4yo+ NR up to 55 on January 28 at $81. Cannot enthuse on what we have seen of late.

Two back was well beaten into sixth after being driven well back, behind Spirit King at this track over 1609m in a NR up to 53 on February 6 at $11. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third after being driven well back, behind Mister Poverty at this track over 2030m in a NR up to 52 on February 13 at $26. Top contender based on recent form.
