Newcastle Race 5 - Woodlands Stud Shuttling The Worlds Best Sires Pace
TOMAHAWK BART (6) was responsible for a far better performance last time out when he scored by 4.5 metres over 2125m at Penrith. His recent effort is good enough to put him right in the finish. GO AWAY AGAIN (3) scored last start by 8 metres at Penrith over 1720m after an encouraging minor placing the start before. Has the benefit of a good draw. Facing a tougher assignment but he is good enough to cope. SAINT CRUSADER (9) is worth another chance after a last-start seventh over 2300m at Menangle six days ago. GOLLY GEE FELLAS (7) is better than her last-start ninth over 1609m at Menangle. Each-way claims.

Second-up here following a spell. Good run when 2nd (Fr1) over 1609m after showing early pace at this track beaten 19 m by San Sebastian (1:51.50) on August 14 at $14. Strong chance with that run under the belt.

Failed to impress last start; 10th (Fr3) over 1730m after showing early speed at Bathurst beaten 20 m by Grayson Red (2:04.90) on August 12 at $7. Showed ability the outing before when he won by a head when quickly away, (Fr5) at this track (1:53.70) beating Happy Too Ya in on July 31 at $14. Capable of more than he has shown recently. Solid top-three prospects.

Sure to improve on the latest effort.

11-year-old gelding showed improvement last time. 3rd (Fr2) over 1609m at this track, at the bell was 5th-12.34 beaten 9 m by Kanena Provlima (1:52.20) on August 21 at $26. The race before was not as impressive when well beaten into eighth after a quick start, behind Heza Punk Rocker at Menangle over 1609m in a 4yo+ on August 15 at $151. Not as keen on his chances in this line-up.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Last start 7th (Fr4) over 2300m after showing early speed and racing wide at Menangle was leading by 3.95 at the bell, beaten 24 m by Bettorlightem Up (2:43.20) in 4yo+ on August 22 at $5. The run previous surrendered the lead and finished 5th (Fr8) over 1609m after showing early pace at Menangle, beaten 2.75 m by Cool Night (1:51.70) in 4yo+ on August 15 at $11. Can do a lot better in this suitable contest.
