Newcastle horse racing tips
—
Race 1. (12:35) NZD Airfreight Max Lees Classic (900m)
#2 – Market Magic @ $2.30
Market Magic scored an impressive trial win at Randwick, and he could make a winning start to his career.
The Waterhouse/Bott-trained son of Capitalist won by 2.3 lengths in fine fashion, and getting barrier four is ideal.
We’re happy with the $2.30 available.
Race 2. (13:10) Karaka 2024 Midway BM72 (1600m)
#5 – Resistable @ $3.30
Resistable is better for two runs back from a spell, and she looks ready to fire on Saturday.
The Michael Freedman-trained mare is a past winner at Newcastle, and she showed good form last preparation.
Barrier three is ideal, and her odds could firm on race day.
Race 3. (13:45) Tab Highway C3 (1600m)
#2 – Rematch @ $2.60
Rematch needs luck from a wide draw, but he has enough talent to beat this field.
The four-year-old son of Real Impact owns two wins and three placings from six starts, including a win at his only start at Newcastle.
Having Nash Rawiller in the saddle helps his chances.
Race 4. (14:20) NZD Insurance BM78 (1400m)
#4 – Fall for Cindy @ $4.60
Fall for Cindy scored an impressive win three back at Warwick Farm before placing at Rosehill last time out.
The four-year-old mare by Sacred Falls has yet to fire from two starts at Newcastle, but she has more talent than most in this field.
Punters get each-way odds to snap up.
Race 5. (14:55) Alf Kneebone Trans-Tasman BM88 (1850m)
#12 – I’mintowin @ $2.10
The Waterhouse/Bott-trained gelding was too slick for them at Rosehill last time out and a repeat could be on the cards.
He owns two wins and two placings from seven starts, and racing at Newcastle should be right up his alley.
Carrying a light weight makes him tough to beat.
Race 6. (15:30) New Zealand Bloodstock Beauford (2300m)
#1 – Numerian @ $5.50
Numerian must carry a big weight of 62kg, but he’s the class runner of the field.
The eight-year-old son of Holy Roman Emperor is a five-time winner from 39 starts, and he ran fourth at Randwick last time out.
We’re happy to take the each-way odds.
Race 7. (16:05) New Zealand Bloodstock Spring Stakes (1600m)
#3 – Invincible Spy @ $4
Invincible Spy is unbeaten after two starts, including a debut win at Newcastle.
The three-year-old colt by I Am Invincible followed it up with a 1.5-length win at Gosford, and he has shown good early speed.
Punters get value odds, which could shorten on race day.
Race 8. (16:45) The Newcastle Herald Hunter (1300m)
#1 – Mazu @ $6.50
Mazu should appreciate the easier company after running fifth behind Bella Nipotina last time out.
The five-year-old gelding by Maurice previously raced in The Everest, and although he’s not racing at his best, he’s better than this field.
Getting $6.50 is a great price for a runner like Mazu.
Race 9. (17:20) NZB Kurt Fearnley Legend BM78 (1600m)
#11 – Tavi Time @ $3.20
Tavi Time showed good form last preparation when scoring three consecutive wins.
The four-year-old gelding by Tavistock resumed with a seventh at Randwick, and it looked like he needed the run.
Carrying a light weight adds to his appeal.
Race 10. (17:55) 2024 TAB Karaka Millions BM94 (1300m)
#8 – Ka Bling @ $6
Ka Bling is never too far away from the mark, including five wins and nine placings from 21 starts.
The five-year-old son of Capitalist owns three placings at Newcastle, and racing on a good surface is ideal.
53kg is ideal, and punters get value odds.
