Newcastle Race 4 - Win 250,000 With Betmgm's Golden Goals Novice Stakes (Gbb Race)
FOREST CAPER (2) continues to race with plenty of consistency backing up another solid second over 1600m here. Boasts seven minor placings from eleven outings. Proven at the course and well placed to go close again. CERELIA (8) is a Wootton Bassett filly debuting for trainer William Haggas. Appeals on pedigree representing a powerful yard. Market support would be significant. Definite player. BOWFELL (1) resumes after a fair debut sixth attempting 1400m at Wolverhampton. Open to improvement though does look a tough assignment. POWER QUEST (6) was well held in a 3400m contest last time. Capable of better back in trip.

Form hard to fault. Most recently 2nd of 9 at this track on November 18 over 1600m, 1.5 len behind Clouds Hill with 60.5kg at $3.30. The race before that rolled along in front before being edged out 3rd of 7 at this track on November 1 over 1600m, 1.75 len behind Song N Dance carrying 60.5kg at $2.10. Can improve again. Doesn't need to improve a great deal to take this out.

Second-up. Comes off a 39-day let-up. First-up after two years second last of 11 at Southwell All Weather on October 24 over 1600m, 17 len behind Quite Sweet carrying 56.5kg at $151. Previously second-up ran last in a small field at this track on November 7 2023 over 1400m, 16 len behind Souffionne carrying 60.5kg at $151. Still early in the prep and needs another run or two.

Last start 6th of 8 at this track on November 14 over 3400m, 14 len behind Majordomo with 71kg at $6. The race before that raced behind the speed prior to fading 7th of 12 at Aintree on November 8 over 3400m, 23 len behind Merlin Allen carrying 70kg at $26. Sure to be thereabouts.

Back after a long spell. Only had one start last preparation eased back early on in a small field at Kempton Park All Weather on May 29 2024 over 1200m, 4 len behind Cervaro Della Sala with 57kg at $5. When resuming last campaign 10th of 12 at Chelmsford on November 11 2023 over 1400m, 6 len behind Queues Likely with 58kg at $81. Maybe later.
