Newcastle Race 5 - Tooheys Pace
SUNSET STRIDE (1) has been racing at Menangle of late, coming from a wider barrier when beaten 8m into fifth at her latest appearance. Enjoys a class drop and should have no excuses from this advantageous draw. FASTING (3) is another that has been racing in the city and producing some decent efforts including a 2.7m fourth three back. Draws well and this looks a more suitable assignment. HEZA DOOZIE (2) has recorded respectable seconds at his last two appearances at Tamworth. Draws nicely and strikes at 50 per cent at this circuit and distance. MR TEDDY NZ (5) hasn't been too far away of late and is another with a decent record when racing over this distance here.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 9th (Fr2) over 1609m at Menangle, at the bell was 4th-7.99 beaten 7 m by Carramar Olam (1:52.70) on July 11 at $9. The run previous was driven from back in the field when 5th (Fr7) over 1609m at Menangle, beaten 22 m by No Notthebuttons (1:51.20) on June 27 at $4.80. Worth another chance. Draws well and better placed.

Look for improvement on last start. Could make his presence felt.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 8th (Fr5) over 1609m at this track was 9th-17.38 at the bell, beaten 8 m by South Seas Rock (1:53.00) on July 10 at $61. Two runs back posted a big 4.5 m win when quickly away, (Fr4) at this track (1:54.50) beating Radiant Amber in on July 3 at $4.33 at the bell was leading 4.21. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

Nine-year-old gelding showed improvement last start. Was well back in the run when 2nd (Fr3) over 2030m at this track, at the bell was 6th-8.42 beaten 2.25 m by Cote Dazur (2:24.70) on July 10 at $26. The run before was not as impressive when well beaten into seventh after being driven well back, behind Whataboyjack at this track over 1609m on July 3 at $11. Not easy from this draw.
