AU2 - Newcastle - Race 3

REIGN MAKER (2) produced a better effort last time out when he scored by 3 metres over 1m at Tamworth. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Meets a comparable field and he can go right on with the job. DANIEL BOOM (9) was responsible for a far better performance at his latest appearance, finishing fourth over 1m at this track. Gets a soft run on the inside of the second line but may need luck at some point. Primary contender in this comparable race. HALLOWEEN (7) is better than his last-start run would suggest when finishing tenth over 1m at Menangle. Each-way chance. PEPPERCORN BARRY (3) is next best and gets every chance from a favourable draw.
