Newcastle Race 5 - Bill & Glenn Tomlin Memorial
KARAOKE KING (1) produced a big effort last start when he overcame the outside barrier and scored by 1.1 metres at this circuit and distance. With the aid of the ace draw he is capable of making it two on end. MISTER BRILLANTE (5) comes off a very good effort last time over 1609m at Menangle, finishing third and just 2 metres from the winner. That was his third placing on the trot so his hoof is on the till. Nicely placed and can make an impact. YESNOMAYBESO (8) draws wider but is worth thought off a last-start win by 4.7 metres at this circuit and distance. Last-start winner CHOGI NZ (9) is unbeaten at this circuit and distance and draws for a trail.

Second-up here following a spell. Game effort when 3rd (Fr1) over 2030m at this track beaten 7 m by Chogi (2:29.70) in 4yo+ on September 4 at $4.80. Fitter and may play a role.

Good run when beaten by 5 m finishing sixth after being driven well back, behind Penurious at this track over 1609m in a 4yo+ on August 28 at $8.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 9 m finishing third behind Yesnomaybeso at this track over 2030m in a 4yo+ on September 4 at $9.50. Solid prospects.

Eight-year-old mare showed improvement last start. Surrendered the lead and finished 3rd (Fr4) over 2030m after showing early pace at this track, beaten 4 m by Karaoke King (2:29.60) in 4yo+ on September 4 at $34. The race before was not as impressive when well beaten into tenth after being driven well back, behind Get Us A Tinny at this track over 1609m on August 10 at $34. This looks a far sterner test.

Last start 4th (Fr1) over 2030m after showing early pace at this track beaten 9 m by Yesnomaybeso (2:27.90) in 4yo+ on September 4 at $3.70. At the start before 5th (Fr5) over 1609m at this track, beaten 8 m by Goodtime Miki (1:55.10) on August 28 at $9.50. Look for improvement on last start. Best form would see him in the finish.
