Newcastle Racecourse 07/03/25

Another busy week of racing draws to a close and all eyes head to Newcastle this Friday, with a very strong card on offer to close off the working week.

The predicted soft ground should add a sense of the unknown to the card but there are plenty of quality horses in contention, across all of the 8 races and OnlyRacing are tracking the best bets on the card.

Newcastle - Race 1 - The Careful Movers Provincial Maiden Plate - 1600m

Selections:
8. Literature Tycoon - $1.95
6. Share The Joy - $5.50
3. Cogitare - $7.50

BEST BET - Literature Tycoon - $1.95
This is the 5th race of Literature Tycoon's career and there is an expectation surrounding this horse currently. It is yet to land a win but has looked good in all previous outings and is one to keep an eye on.

THE DANGER - Share The Joy - $5.50
18 races without a win is not a statistic that Share The Joy and connections will love but it finished 2nd last time out and is a horse trending in the right direction. Conditions should suit and it looks a decent price to finally land.

VALUE BET - Cogitare - $7.50
With not much experience at this level, Cogitare is a tough horse to get a read on but it finished 3rd last time out and looked to enjoy the stretch to 1600m, making it a contender here.

Newcastle - Race 4 - Williams Designer Homes Handicap - 2300m

Selections:
4. Presley - $2.70
1. Kosuke - $4.00
3. Nyota - $4.20

BEST BET - Presley - $2.70
While the wins have been drying up a touch for Presley, this Annabel Neasham flyer will be eager to get back on track here at Newcastle. Conditions and the distance should suit, it is here to win.

THE DANGER - Kosuke - $4.00
By contrast, Kosuke is trending in the opposite direction, with a super win on the card last time out. Extending the distance a touch is the potential grey area but this horse is durable enough to stay over 2300m.

VALUE BET - Nyota - $4.20
By far the most experienced offering on the card, Nyota comes into this one with some super form in its legs and it should relish the trip and the going at Newcastle, making it a very strong contender.

Newcastle - Race 8 - NZB Samantha Miss Handicap - 1300m

Selections:
6. Titanium Miss - $4.00
2. Elba - $8.00
4. Invasive Dreams - $9.00

BEST BET - Titanium Miss - $4.00
The super talented Titanium Miss will head up the market in the closer and the shift to 1300m is certainly an intriguing one. This horse has plenty of pace in reserve and should be the standard setter with a clear run.

THE DANGER - Elba - $8.00
Fresh out of the in-form Freedman yard, Elba is a genuine hope here too for connections. A couple of poor runs have checked Elba's progress somewhat but it is a horse with potential, who could turn up and run well here.

VALUE BET - Invasive Dreams - $9.00
Momentum is key in racing and with two wins from its last 3 starts, Invasive Dreams could be one to watch. It was unlucky last time out but returns to more familiar surrounds and could relish this test at Newcastle.
