Newcastle Race 2 - Gamble Responsibly At Betuk Handicap
Three-time course winner HUMBLE SPARK (3) displayed best form eleven days ago scoring by 0.5L in this handicap grade attempting 2000m here. Ticks plenty of boxes. Top selection. PERCY WILLIS (2) showed plenty of ability a week ago when 1.5L second tackling this level and track over 2000m. Main danger. ILLUCIDATE (1) out-ran odds last month managing a decent fourth contesting a higher class 2400m handicap at Kempton AW. Looks one to note. SHOW NO FEAR (4) might fill fourth spot.

Useful type. Most recently favourite; came home strongly from last on the turn and won by 0.5 len at this track December 28 over 2040m defeating Phone Tag carrying 60.5kg at $3.30. The run before that 5th of 12 at this track on November 22 over 2500m, 9 len behind Fast Fred carrying 63.5kg at $3. Only has a small field to contend with and is the one to beat.
