Newcastle Race 4 - Nsw Harness Breeders/ Representing The Industry Pace
NEXT TO ME NZ (10) proved too good as a hot favourite at this circuit and distance on Monday, leading to get home by close to 5m. Draws on the back row but stays in the same grade. With even luck he could strike again. ALWAYS PROMISE ME (6) draws wider than when beaten 2.8m last week but that was his fourth successive runner-up result at this venue so the hoof is on the till. GOODTIME BRAVO (2) worked from this barrier last week but stuck on to place. Go well again. MAYWYNS MIGHTY MAC (3) hasn't been far away and draws for another good showing.

Two back was well beaten into ninth behind Nitro Danny at Penrith over 1720m in a NR up to 48 on April 2 at $8. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third after being driven well back, behind Magnetic Storm at this track over 2030m in a NR up to 53 on April 17 at $6.50. Contender.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 3.5 m fifth behind Kasbah at this track over 1609m NR 51 to 54 last start. Before that was beaten a head third at Tamworth in NR up to 55 on April 16. Draws well and could be there at the business end.

Last start 4th (Fr1) over 2030m after showing early pace at this track, beaten 23 m by Magnetic Storm (2:26.60) in NR up to 53 on April 17 at $13. Two runs back won by a head when quickly away, (Fr4) at this track (1:55.60) beating Sinbinned in NR up to 47 on March 13 at $3.90. Not keen on his chances in this field.

Last start was well back in the run when 7th (Fr7) over 2030m at this track, beaten 25 m by Magnetic Storm (2:26.60) in NR up to 53 on April 17 at $21.
