Newcastle Race 4 - Skillsons Constructions Pty Ltd Hcp (C1)
AETHELWULF (2) was well backed when resuming last start over this course and distance and the money was spot on as he destroyed his rivals with a dazzling turn of foot. Gives every indication he will be winning better races and can pick this one up along the journey. TURNING CIRCLE (15) made a late challenge but failed to pick up the winner recently over 1300m at Hawkesbury. Has raced 20 times for just one win so she has probably bottomed out compared to the top pair, but a top three finish is in reach. FIERCENESS (8) hasn't done much wrong this prep and if he's close enough when straightening he can make his presence felt late. ROYAL CHIC (13) won last time and is open to further improvement third-up.

Second-up. Promising on debut 2nd of 11 at Goulburn Mdn on December 19 over 1500m, 0.6 len behind Sunsprite carrying 57.5kg at $20. Returned from break favourite; scored a big 5 len win at this track Cg&E Mdn-Sw June 6 over 1400m on a rain affected track defeating Monotone carrying 59kg at $2.30. Can go on with it. Strips fitter and will be tough to beat in this better company.

Resuming after a four-and-a-half months break. Finished off last preparation winning won by neck this track Mdn-Sw February 14 over 1890m defeating Eureka Rebel with 57.5kg at $4. On debut sixth of 9 at Kembla Grange Super 3yo Mdn-Sw December 11 over 1400m, 5.5 len behind Ballpark carrying 57kg at $4.20. Might be better off following this outing.

Last start won by 1.0 len at Nowra Mdn June 15 over 1400m in the wet defeating Rouladen with 58kg at $3.70. The start before that got back early 8th of 10 at Warwick Farm Super 2&3yo Mdn on June 3 over 1100m, slow going 5 len behind Lady Invictus carrying 58.5kg at $101. Much tougher assignment today and looks outclassed.
