Newcastle Race 3 - Best Odds Guaranteed At Betmgm Restricted Maiden Stakes (Rider Restricted Race) (Gbb Race)
SAXONIA (5) came close to victory previously placing a head third over course and distance first-up from a break. Winning potential. ABSOLUTELY NOT (4) reappears after a year away. On sole start at Wolverhampton finished fifth. Interesting. SOVEREIGN CLASS (7) recorded a 2.75L runner-up finish tackling this track and trip on debut following up with a fourth here. Can bounce back. MY MATE BEATTIE (6) holds plenty of experience and can put it to good use.

Third-up today. Resuming 5th of 11 at Leopardstown on December 26 over 3200m, 8 len behind Green Splendour with 71kg at $29. Last start ran last of 8 at Southwell All Weather on February 6 over 1600m, 18 len behind Transparent with 62kg at $23. Struggling to make an impact lately and others appeal more.

Second-up. First start second last in a small field at this track on November 15 over 3400m, 29 len behind Hunters Spring carrying 71kg at $4.30. Went for a spell before returning ran last of 11 at Catterick on January 22 over 3160m, 30 len behind Connect The Dots carrying 71kg at $101. Fitter for that run but is unlikely to threaten.

Five-year-old gelding by Ivawood out of Parlour who has taken a long time to make it to the track. Worth a market check.

Second run back. First-up after six months 3rd of 7 at this track on February 8 over 1600m, head behind Blast The Dream carrying 58kg at $3.50. Previously second-up 4th in a small field at Great Yarmouth on May 22 over 1200m, 5 len behind Age Of Gold with 60.5kg at $6.50. Winning chance with that run under the belt.

Comes here off a 53-day let-up. Most recently second last of 10 at Southwell All Weather on December 29 over 1400m, 6 len behind Singoura with 58kg at $13. The race before that 2nd in a small field at Wolverhampton on December 20 over 1700m, 0.8 len behind Hippocratic Oath carrying 61kg at $12. Can improve and is worth thought.

Having third race start. At big odds at debut, 2nd in a small field at this track on January 11 over 1600m, 2.75 len behind Pacifist carrying 52kg at $29. Second-up in a small field at this track on February 4 over 1600m, 8 len behind Crack On Boys with 53.5kg at $19. Not far away in either run and is worth including.
