Our Newcastle Horse Racing Tips for Fridays meeting.
Tea Leaves (Newcastle Race 6 No. 1)
This two-year-old Sebring colt trained by Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott has raced twice. He debuted with 5.93 lengths 7th over 1000m at Canberra on 5 February, then showed a lot of improvement to chase hard for a 0.08 length 2nd over 1300m at Wyong on 25 February. He had the best overall race sectionals when he just missed last start and is ready to win

Each Way
Ballistic Moon (Newcastle Race 5 No. 6):
This three-year-old gelding trained by Gary Portelli has one win and two place from seven starts. At the end of last campaign he winded late for 6.1 lengths 7th over 1000m at Kembla Grange on 14 November, then resumed after 14 weeks for a 0.75 length win on a heavy track over 900m at Newcastle on 20 February. That was a great win and he looks a nice each-way bet at the same track and distance.

Best Lay
Cascadian (Newcastle Race 7 No. 1):
This six-year-old gelding trained by James Cummings is the early favourite in the Group 3 Newcastle Newmarket which is the feature race of the meeting. He charged home out wide for 0.2 length 2nd in the Group 1 Kennedy Cantala over 1600m at Flemington on 31 October, then chased hard for 2.8 lengths 5th in The Gong over 1600m at Kembla Grange on 21 November. Resuming from a 14 week spell he can go well first-up, but others offer better value.

Key Comments The feature race is the Tab Federal Handicap (race 6) and is also the same race the best bet bobs up in who is due for a change of luck and may get that here. Best Bet Devine Miss (Canberra Race 6 No. 3) Hasn't had much luck this prep and would love to see a more on speed and prominent ride this time around. Efforts have been excellent to date and has been hitting the line hard. This race is

Key Comments Expect those on speed to be suited. The track is in the good range. The best bet is in the last of the day and has strong claims. Best Bet Frawley (Geelong Race 9 No. 5) Maps a little sticky but looks well placed to return to the winners enclosure. The run behind Estirella 2 back is more than good enough for this field and still has plenty of scope and upside to be taking out a race like this.

Key Comments There are 7 races on a good track where the rail is +1 metre from the 1850m to the 1550m, +3 metres from the 950m to the 450m and true for the remainder. This is the same rail position as the last meeting on 20th November. Best Bet Whine For Wine (Balaklava Race 3 No. 9) Whine For Wine ran 4th over 1050m at Morphettville at her only start. She’s had a 13 week break since then and looks to have
