Newcastle Bags Race 9

Newcastle Greyhound Stadium Stakes

Stake: $859

BRAMBLE CAT (2) could manage only fifth at this track last time but caught the eye when clocking a speedy 29.16 over 480m at this track three starts back. Hard to top on best recent times. ALNWICK TURBO (6) produced a moderate performance last time when fifth at this track over 480m behind Patterdale Messi (30.08) in an A4. The form out of last race has been strong. Bold showing expected. SHELONE GLORY (1) has missed the frame at her last couple but wasn't beaten far three back when second (29.39) at this track in an A5. Rates a winning chance on best. BRAMBLE DORA (4) will be hard to beat with a drop in journey.
