Provincial racing heads to Newcastle on Tuesday afternoon, with a competitive eight-race program set for decision. The rail is out +6m the entire circuit, and although the track is rated a Soft 6 at the time of acceptances, the sunny skies predicted in the lead-up should have the surface improving throughout the week. All the action is scheduled to get underway at 12:20pm local time.
Best Bet: Monty Be Quick
Monty Be Quick didn’t go a yard on the Heavy 10 surface at Scone on July 2 and warrants forgiving as he heads into his third Australian start. The European import was strong prior to that second-up failure when crowded for room at a crucial stage at Hawkesbury on June 18. He should strip fitter now, and with the ideal run likely to fall his way from barrier three, Monty Be Quick will prove hard to hold out as he searches for his maiden success.

Race 2 – 
#1 Monty Be Quick (3)

Next Best: Dumebi
Dumebi was well beaten by five lengths first-up at Warwick Farm on June 26 but had excuses returning from a 399-day spell. The son of Lonhro had the wheels spinning a long way out on the bottomless conditions, unable to show his best in the final furlong. The Ciaron Maher-trained colt appears perfectly placed getting back to provincial company for the first time, and with the improving conditions likely to play into his favour, Dumebi should go close to shirking the maiden tag.

#3 Dumebi (5)

Best Value: Promiscuous Girl
Although Promiscuous Girl has been defeated by a combined 10.5 lengths across two barrier trials, her work has been much better than it appears as she debuts for the Chris Waller barn. She was hardly asked for an effort in her recent jump-out at Rosehill on July 12, going through the wire hard held under Jason Collett. Rory Hutchings gets the nod for race-day, and with gate five allowing Promiscuous Girl to lob into the one-one throughout, the three-year-old should get every chance to make an impression at the each-way price with online bookmakers.
Best Value
Race 4 – 
#6 Promiscuous Girl (5)
3yo Filly | T: Chris Waller | J: Rory Hutchings (58kg)
