Newcastle Race 6 - Gamble Responsibly At Betmgm Handicap (Rider Restricted Race)
MERESIDE MADNESS (2) found a 1.25 victory over course and distance sixteen days ago. Holds every chance of doubling up. TASEVER (1) has recorded two wins and three placings in his last six starts including a second behind the top pick tackling this track and trip. Can reverse the placings. HAVANA PRINCE (4) reappears for a fifth outing on AW. Last seen winning by 0.5L at Redcar attempting this journey during July. Interesting after a 214-day break. STREAK LIGHTNING (3) rounds out the shortlist.

Second run back. First-up after three months won by 1.3 len at this track February 4 over 1400m defeating Tasever with 60.5kg at $5. Previously second-up 9th of 14 at York on July 27 over 1400m, 5 len behind Finn Ironside carrying 56.5kg at $11. In the money when second up in the past and can add to that record today.
