Newcastle Race 1

Wests City Pace

Stake: $10,575

LONGNWINDINGROAD (4) looks close to another win after back-to-back placings, leading in a higher-graded race and sticking on for second here on Monday. Draws a few spots wider this looks winnable. HEAVENLY REASON (10) has been hard to fault of late, winning three in a row at Penrith. Has come from this row in the last two. Strong claims again. PARALLEL (3) hasn't been too far away at Menangle of late and is on the radar from a good draw. CHEDDAR VALLEY NZ (2) did a good job to come from a wider barrier for second here on Monday. In the mix.

Didn't do much at the last run, was driven from back in the field when 7th (Fr7) over 1609m at this track, at the bell was 7th-13.15 beaten 10 m by Grosestar (1:57.50) in NR 42 to 44 on June 16 at $16. Before that was driven from back in the field when 7th (Fr4) over 1609m at this track, beaten 16 m by Bodyline (1:56.20) in NR 45 to 47 on June 2 at $51. Better draw but needs to improve.

Good run when beaten by 5.5 m finishing third behind Amillion Promises at Tamworth over 1980m in a NR up to 53 on June 12 at $7.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 7 m finishing second after showing early speed, behind Major Mickey at this track over 1609m in a NR 52 to 60 on June 16 at $5.50. Close to another win.

Last start 8th (Sr1) over 1609m at this track, beaten 10 m by Goodtime Bravo (1:54.90) in NR up to 53 on June 13 at $12. At his previous start was well back in the run when 4th (Fr6) over 1609m at this track beaten 4.5 m by Mammals Riddle (1:55.00) in NR up to 52 on June 6 at $15.

In good form last start. Won by a head (Sr4) at Penrith (2:05.10) beating Flo Ryda in NR up to 52 on June 5 at $7.50 at the bell was 4th-4.4. Two runs back won by a head as favourite (Sr4) at Penrith (2:05.30) beating Our Ultimate Layla in NR up to 47 on May 1 at $3.60. Big chance again.
