Newcastle Race 4 - O'neills Tyres - Steve O'neill Memorial Hcp (C1)
Plenty of strong form lines converge. ITALIAN SPIRIT (1) led for the judge then gave a kick and was too good in a 1400m maiden over 1400m at Kembla last start. Out of an Oaks winner so the extra 200m today can only help. Should bowl along in front and give them something to catch again. PERINI MISS (4) led from the outset and toyed with a maiden field over 1500m at this track last time out. Promising mare with more to offer at just the third run of the campaign. LEGASELLI (7) won her maiden two back over this distance at Kembla. Pulled up in a bad way last start so put a line through that run. In the right race to bounce back to form. AUTUMN SKY (3) didn't do a great deal first-up over 1300m at the Illawarra Grange but will enjoy the longer journey this afternoon.

Third-up today. First-up 2nd in a small field in a Cg&E Mdn at Kembla Grange on September 26 over 1400m, 3 len behind Lafite carrying 60kg at $2.15. Second-up favourite; won by 1.2 len in a Mdn at Rosehill on October 14 over 1400m on a rain affected track defeating Snitzel's Girl with 59kg at $4.40. Fitter and is capable of taking this out.

Third race start. Won on debut won by 0.5 len in a Mid Mdn at this track on March 31 over 1250m defeating The Champion with 56.5kg at $2.35. Returned from break eased back early on 4th of 7 in a Mid Bm64 at Illawarra Grange on October 1 over 1300m, 5 len behind Maidoff carrying 57kg at $7. Promising mare who can improve with that run under her belt.

Third-up today. First-up sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 11 in a Mdn at Taree on September 22 over 1313m, on a slow track; 4.5 len behind Columbo carrying 55kg at $10. Second run from a spell won by 2.75 len in a 4yo+ MDN-Sw at this track on October 6 over 1500m defeating Dance With Destiny carrying 57kg at $8.50. Can make it back-to-back wins with the confidence high.

Lining up for just third start. When well in the market at debut, made ground from midfield; 2nd of 9 in a Mdn at Muswellbrook on October 5 over 1280m, 0.6 len behind Rolling Home carrying 58kg at $2.80. Last start favourite; won by 3.5 len in a Mdn at Muswellbrook on October 19 over 1500m on a rain affected track defeating Sheer Shame carrying 58kg at $1.09. This looks well within reach.

Comes here off a 35-day let-up. Last start couldn't go on with it; 10th of 13 in a Cl1-Sw at Kembla Grange on September 26 over 2000m, 24 len behind Criteria carrying 56kg at $4.20. The start before that raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 1.0 len in a Mdn-Sw at Kembla Grange on September 12 over 1600m defeating Van Hoven with 55.5kg at $1.90. Certainly worth another chance back at the mile.

At the latest run 8th of 10 in a Prov Cl1 at Hawkesbury on October 15 over 1500m, slow going 12 len behind Sonnig with 53.5kg at $101. Before that ran last in a small field in a Mid Cl1 at this track on October 6 over 1250m, 11 len behind Lawless Lucy with 55kg at $101. Looks tested again.
