Newcastle Tips November 15


TAB Highway Handicap Tips (Race 3)


Newcastle Favourite - Race 3 No. 5 Off The Scale

Off The Scale is the most talented runner in this Highway, but being first-up at a mile with only one trial suggests the betting could tell the story late in the piece.

The daughter of Zousain started to deliver on her promise late last campaign with back-to-back victories before a terrific Randwick Highway effort without luck, where she stuck to the task despite covering ground in that 1800m contest.

With any intent she would have saluted fresh last campaign over 1400m, and resuming at 1600m here suggests the work has been put in to have her ready.

She maps to get every chance provided there is any positivity from the draw.

Komplete Laundry Solutions BM78 Handicap Tips (Race 4)


Newcastle Value Bet - Race 4 No. 9 Miss Hades

We had her as a value play on Wednesday’s Rosehill card and, interestingly, an in-form Gary Portelli yard opted against that softer midweek assignment to instead target this BM78 against her own sex.

Miss Hades draws low, carries only half a kilo above the minimum, and looks well treated compared to several key rivals.

The more aggressive placement could be a lead in itself as to how she is going, and the five-year-old has worked very well in two October trials leading into her return.

She also resumes at 1400m, which is right in her preferred distance range.

Lees Racing 'Legend' Mile Tips (Race 5)


Newcastle Best Bet - Race 5 No. 4 Meridiana

This John Sargent-trained mare showed above-average ability in her first campaign, which included a stakes placing, and her only real miss came on a Heavy 10 before a spell.

She was too classy first-up on September 27 and should have completed a double in The Four Pillars, where Meridiana spotted them a start and was held up at key stages before launching late to grab second.

Form behind her has already stacked up, with Agita and Let’s Fly — well beaten in that race — then filling the quinella in a BM72 on Wednesday.

The rise to 1600m and the big Newcastle circuit both read as major positives.

The Newcastle Herald Hunter Tips (Race 8)


Newcastle Feature Bet - Race 8 No. 14 Yorkshire

The early money has come for Yorkshire, a resuming gelding who has built an impressive record of six wins and two placings from eight starts, including a hat-trick through January and February before being tipped out.

He has been placed superbly by the O’Shea & Charlton yard and, while this is his toughest test to date, he finds this with a light weight compared to several of the more exposed rivals.

Cifrado might be the roughie worth including in The Hunter, but Yorkshire still shapes as the right horse on the up.

If he comes through this, perhaps The Ingham next month is an option as they chase a Doncaster Mile slot.

Hall & Wilcox BM94 Handicap Tips (Race 10)


Newcastle Roughie - Race 10 No. 12 Just Party

We’ll know by the last whether the wide draw is a major negative, as Newcastle’s big sweeping track often alleviates that concern, though feature days can occasionally play against expectations.

The four-year-old is prepared by a stable known for producing strong fresh performers and early in a prep may be the time to catch him.

He was huge when resuming in May — gelded ahead of that run — when just missing in the Hawkesbury Guineas behind Media World, who franked the form by winning a Listed race at Flemington last month.

Just Party didn't progress in two Brisbane runs, but his spring trials have been terrific, and that makes him an appealing knockout hope here.
