Newcastle Race 2 - Coastal Advisory Australia Midway Mdn Plate
DUBIOUS EXPRESS (1) on debut for Richard and Will Freedman is a great chance to open his account immediately. Has trialled four times going back to January, with the latest at Rosehill the most impressive. Well-educated and in a thin race looks the one they have to beat. IAMBUBB (3) has not been seen since tailing the field in the Group 3 Breeders over 1000m at Randwick in October. Won a trial in good style on the Illawarra Grange circuit on 6 May. Faces a far easier task to launch this prep so expect more. RAINBOW CHARLIE (4) is a Headwater colt on debut for the Widdup camp. Recent Warwick Farm trial winner who looks to have his share of talent. FINAL GIFT (2) is the most experienced runner in the field. The last couple of runs have been plain but if at his best is sure to be about the mark. PACIFIC DIAMOND (6) placed in a recent Warwick Farm trial and is not out of the equation at her first race appearance.

Two-year-old colt (Dubious - Sanzera) debuts following a trial over 900m at Rosehill on May 11. Looks hard to beat in a mediocre affair.

At the latest run second last of 7 at Wyong Mdn on April 30 over 1000m, 5 len behind Dolce Vita carrying 56kg at $26. The run before that second last in a small field at Wyong Mdn on April 16 over 1000m, 5 len behind Bruce I Am carrying 55.5kg at $26. Each-way claims with the race fitness edge.

Brad Widdup trained two-year-old colt lining up for first race start. Recent trial winner at Warwick Farm. Beautifully drawn and won't need to be a superstar to compete with this lot.

Two-year-old gelding (Pride Of Dubai - Oh Barbie) on debut. Hasn't shown a great deal in trials leading up to this and inclined so happy to pass.

Filly by North Pacific facing the starter for the first time. Was runner-up in a trial at Rosehill on May 11 over 900m. Looks talented enough to play a key role.

First starter. Two-year-old filly by Bull Point out of Diaochan. At the most recent trial was out of the placings over 800m at Illawarra Grange May 6. Prefer to see under race conditions.

Was at very long odds at debut, ran last of 10 at Warwick Farm 2yo F Mdn-Sw on May 6 over 1000m, on a slow track; 8 len behind Uncertain Glory with 56kg at $201. Wait until she shows something positive.
