Newcastle Race 3 - Nhs Midway Mdn Hcp
LADY OF THE CASTLE (4) met with heavy support but could only manage fourth last start over this distance at Gosford. Not a great deal of depth to this maiden and getting onto a firmer track should help. Great chance for her to put the record straight. SPARKLING FIRE (2) has not raced since his debut over 1100m at Gosford in December when runner-up as a $3.10 chance. Trialled in good style at Hawkesbury recently and he looks set for a positive return. LOVE GODDESS (6) has been underwhelming in two appearances this prep, both on rain-affected ground. Might be worth one more chance at odds. LUNA CRUISER (7) returned from an eight-week let-up with a respectable third over 1250m at Gunnedah last start. One for the exotics. Snitzel first starter REVAMPED (1) won a recent trial and looks set to make an immediate impression.

Richard Litt trained four-year-old gelding lining up for first race start. Won a recent Warwick Farm trial. Betting should tell the tale.

Resumes racing after a long spell. Only one run when sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 8 at Gosford Cg&E Mdn-Sw on December 28 over 1100m, 3.5 len behind Capture Me carrying 57.5kg at $3.10. Everything points to a bright return.

Third-up today. First-up got back early 3rd in a small field at this track Prov 3yo+ Mdn on June 27 over 1200m, on a wet track; neck behind Poshy's Girl carrying 56.5kg at $3.60. Second-up 4th in a small field at Gosford Super Mdn on July 18 over 1200m, on a wet track; 2.75 len behind Frida Kay with 57kg at $1.80. Best figures stack up nicely and so she deserves another chance.

At the latest run 3rd of 9 at Gunnedah Mdn on July 20 over 1250m, 1.5 len behind Nielsen Park with 55.5kg at $26. The race before that eased back early on 5th of 10 at Gunnedah Super Mdn-Sw on May 24 over 1400m, on a slow track; 3 len behind Fortheo with 57kg at $31. Still a maiden after 28 runs but can sneak into the frame.
