Newcastle Race 5 - Alabar Australia 2yo Pace

LOCHINVAR COOGEE (2) has been racing well of late. Finished second at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 2 metres. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is capable of another big performance. GORDONS GHOST (7) has been excellent recently. Finished second at her latest appearance over 1609m at Menangle, beaten by 4 metres. Tactics will be crucial from this wide draw. Has the talent to find the winners' list. AMERICAN HOLD UP (1) is worth another chance after a last-start eighth over 1609m at this track four days ago. MULLUM SIZZLE (3) good effort on debut last start, finishing runner-up over 1609m at this track. Has plenty of scope for improvement.

Two back was beaten by 7 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Tiny Prancer at Menangle over 1609m in a 2yo on July 14 at $21. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2 m finishing second after showing early speed, behind Warrawee Way Back at this track over 1609m in a 2yo on July 24 at $3.20. One of the primary contenders.

Failed to impress last start; 9th (Fr5) over 1609m after showing early speed at Menangle beaten 40 m by Blissful Lover (1:53.30) in 2yo on July 25 at $34. Showed ability the outing before when she won by 1.5 m when quickly away, (Fr1) at this track (1:57.50) beating Luciendo Bien in 2yo on July 13 at $3.50 at the bell was leading 2.88. Best form puts her right in this.

Last start good run when 2nd (Fr8) over 1609m after showing early speed at Menangle, at the bell was 3rd-5.82 beaten 4 m by Blissful Lover (1:53.30) in 2yo on July 25 at $11. Two runs back won by a head as favourite (Sr2) at this track (1:57.80) beating Mcweapon in on July 3 at $1.85 at the bell was 5th-7.79. Sure to be there at the business end.
