Newcastle tips: Dubawi Fifty to deliver, Camakasi weighted to strike

Dubawi Fifty poised to open account in Newcastle tips

Dubawi Fifty shaped really well when runner-up last time out and can go one better to open his account in the 2m handicap on today’s card at Newcastle (15.20).

The gelding has shown progressive form in three quick runs since joining trainer Karen McClintock, and posted a career-best effort over 1m 4f at the track earlier in the month when beaten 1 3/4 lengths by Ajman Prince in a competitive 13-runner class 4 contest.

After being held-up and forced to race wide, Dubawi Fifty made good headway two from home and stayed on strongly to be gaining all the way to the line.

The winner is a bit of a course specialist who had won his previous start in good style and has since gone on to finish an unlucky in-running second, and the third home The Resdev Way went into the contest seeking a hat-trick of successes.

It gives the form a very solid look in relation to this lower grade class 5 affair and makes a 2lb rise in the weights for Dubawi Fifty look on the lenient side.

The selection also remains unexposed and open to further progression, after just four career starts, and looks sure to appreciate the step up in trip given how he finished off the race last time out.

Camakasi weighted to strike

Camakasi has slipped to a career-low mark and and looks decent value at the odds on offer to cash-in and score an overdue success in the 1m 2f handicap (14.50).
