Newcastle Race 1 - Download The At The Races App Handicap
PANTILE'S GIFT (1) made the frame twice last season and shaped well stepping up in trip eighteen days ago posting a 3.5L fourth tackling a higher level 2000m handicap at Chelmsford City AW. Open to further improvement. Likely player. SOVEREIGN BRIGHT (2) enhanced a promising all-weather record when a good 8L third in a 1600m maiden at Lingfield AW. The second has won since boosting form. Respect up in journey. DUE TO SHINE (7) ended last year with progressive form managing a 1600m nursery second on soft ground at Beverley before a decent course and distance nursery third last October. Makes appeal on return. MERITOCRATIC (3) rates next best.

Second-up. Comes off a 39-day let-up. First-up after two months 9th of 12 at this track on March 5 over 1400m, 6 len behind Kingofthecarnival with 61kg at $21. Previously second-up ran last of 7 at this track on December 19 over 1400m, 12 len behind Thestral with 60.5kg at $34. Hard to get excited about his chances.

Second-up. First-up after six months ran last in a small field at Wolverhampton on March 16 over 2400m, 9 len behind Magnetude carrying 53kg at $29. Previously second-up ran last of 10 at Haydock Park on September 5 over 1600m, 21 len behind Legacy Link carrying 58kg at $251. That run was a bit plain so prefer her later on.
