Newcastle Race 1 - Tooheys Midway Mdn Plate
YAMASHITA (10) caught the eye when resuming last start over 1000m at Kembla, flashing home from last at one stage to be beaten a head. Gets two runs into a prep for the first time which is an encouraging sign. Back in trip is the query but she looks ready to break the ice. Four-year-old Invader gelding DREAM INVADER (1) makes a long-awaited debut. Has only trialled once and scored by a cool 6.4 lengths at Wyong. Sure to have admirers. FARCOLO (7) returns from a 19-week break. Opened last prep with a placing over 1000m at Canberra then contested three black-type races without landing a blow. In the mix in this company. EXCELS (4) started in the red but after leading for home caved in badly to finish midfield when resuming over this trip at Scone recently. Fitter and should have a bit more to offer this time. MONTE SHELL (8) has showed pace but tired in her two runs to date. Hard to see her winning but throw her in trifectas and first fours.

Allan Kehoe trained four-year-old gelding lining up for first race start. Most impressive recent trial winner. Inside barrier will assist chances. Watch for any market moves.
