Pace looks strong with Jonson pushing forward from out wide along with Hold My Drink in closer. Tricky contest. FIVE OF A KIND (12) found the line nicely second-up with a slashing second over 1600m at this track in a solid rating contest. Gets a similar set-up for this with the winkers going on. Ready to win. COOL RUPERT (5) fitter now and should have little trouble running a strong 1500m. Held his ground to the line with a respectable fifth over 1400m at this track. Can get cover from the gate and the tempo suits. Each way. FLYING PARTY (2) covered plenty of ground in the run with a battling fifth over this trip at Newcastle. Blinkers added this time and he gets every chance from the inside draw. UNMATCHED (10) surprised at the big odds with a respectable fourth over 1400m at this track. Drops in weight and ready for this trip. Keep safe from the awkward barrier. SUGGESTED PLAY: Five Of A Kind should prove too sharp for these.
