Best Bet at Newcastle: Love And Light
The Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott-trained Love And Light returns after a 256-day spell and has had plenty of work in preparation for this first-up assignment. The daughter of Capitalist stretched out to make every post a winner in a recent barrier trial at Randwick on March 10, booting clear by 3.5 lengths under the guidance of Rachel King. She makes the trip to Newcastle to take the reins, and provided she can dictate terms throughout, expect Love And Light to shirk the maiden tag at start six.
Best Bet
Race 5 – 
#2 Love And Light (8)
4yo Mare | T: Gai Waterhouse & Adrian Bott | J: Rachel King (58kg)
Next Best at Newcastle: Flying Argento
Flying Argento whacked away first-up at Hawkesbury on March 8 over an unsuitable journey (1500m) and appears well placed stepping out to the 2100m second-up. The three-year-old gelding produced a strong maiden victory with a similar setup at the end of last preparation and won’t mind the sting out of the ground heading into this BM58 contest. Reece Jones has the option to press forward from the wide draw (8), and provided he can slot in for cover a crucial stage, Flying Argento should have no issues justifying favouritism with horse racing bookmakers.
Next Best
Race 1 – 
#5 Flying Argento (8)
3yo Gelding | T: Gary Portelli | J: Reece Jones (59kg)
Best Value at Newcastle: Our Emily
Our Emily has shown glimpses of a talented type in her debut campaign, breaking her maiden on debut at Port Macquarie on February 16 before suffering some interference in back-to-back starts. She appears poised to doing something fourth-up as she steps out to the 1300m for the first time, showing a good turn-of-foot at the back end of her races. Louise Day gets should land in the ideal stalking position from barrier two, and provided the brakes fall her way when trying to get clear, Our Emily should be fighting out the finish at a good price with Dabble.
Best Value
Race 7 – 
#10 Our Emily (2)
3yo Filly | T: John Bannister | J: Louise Day (57kg)
