Newcastle Race 5 - Skyfall Standardbreds Pace
EYE CAN EAR AMOUR (1) is in good form with top-five finishes at his last five starts, most recently recording a second over 1609m at Menangle. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Finds a suitable assignment and will take plenty of beating once more. BETWEEN DECKS (8) was out of the money last start when 35 metres from the winner in seventh over 2125m at Penrith. Best form reference might be his win at Penrith three starts back. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. His recent effort is not a true indication. Good enough to take out a race like this. MICKEY BE NIMBLE (3) is better than his last-start run for eighth over 1609m at Menangle would suggest. Worth an each-way ticket. A LITTLE DILEMMA (5) is the next elect off a last-start win by a head at Tamworth over 1980m.

Didn't do much at the last run, was well back in the run when 8th (Fr7) over 1609m at this track, beaten 30 m by Frankiromar (1:56.90) on May 22 at $51. Before that broke in score up and was out of position at the start 8th (Fr3) over 1609m at this track, beaten 30 m by This Is Heaven (1:53.00) on May 15 at $126. Has the task ahead.

Ran well last start showing plenty of improvement following May 21 run. Just managed to hang on and win won by a nose when driven back in the field, (Fr7) held up early, at this track (2:29.30) beating Need Four Speed in on May 29 at $7. This race will be harder than that win. Will find this tough.

Commanding win three starts back at Penrith over 2125m on May 7. Last time out 7th (Sr1) over 2125m at Penrith, beaten 35 m by Alwaysbgood (2:38.00) on May 25 at $13. Rates highly and looks hard to beat on best form.
