The Hunter Day delivers another fantastic Saturday of racing in Newcastle, headlined by the $1 million The Hunter over 1300m, one of the biggest races on the NSW provincial racing calendar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The feature has attracted a quality line-up, with King Of Roseau, General Salute, and Infancy among the contenders, while the Group 3 Spring Stakes and Listed The Beauford provide plenty of additional interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By I Am Invincible, Stellar Ami stamped herself as one to watch with a dominant trial performance over 800m at Warwick Farm last month, and this looks a perfect career launchpad.<\/p>\n

Agent Zero returned to action to fill the minors behind True To Form over 1400m at Randwick-Kensington, beaten just over a length, while he took plenty of improvement into a winning performance over 1500m on the main Randwick track on Golden Eagle Day. Another rise in trip looks to suit at this point of his preparation, and he\u2019s open to further improvement.<\/p>\n

She\u2019s only made three appearances since debuting, but after only just being denied over 1280m at Muswellbrook last month, Imela has since recorded consecutive victories in maiden and Class 1 company. This is another decent rise in class, but she\u2019s proven at the track and distance and still has upside, and something like this doesn\u2019t look beyond her.<\/p>\n

\n

Having been freshened after only just missing in Midway company at Randwick in early October, Cabbucio returned to action at Randwick on The Big Dance Day to finish second behind an impressive All Star. I\u2019m confident that run will have brought her right back on, while she\u2019s drawn to receive the run of the race from barrier 5 with only 55kgs in tow.<\/p>\n

Amreekiyah was often the bane of punters\u2019 existence last time in, well placed and well backed multiple times without quite managing to strike, but she justified a good go in the market in BM78 company at Warwick Farm when resuming this time. A winner at this point of her preparation previously, she\u2019s been kept nice and fresh and won her only other start here at Newcastle.<\/p>\n

With natural improvement, something like this looks the next logical target for her.<\/p>\n

Horologist was only just denied in a couple of maiden sprints at Canterbury during his brief debut preparation, but after trialling up well last month, he hit the ground running this time with an easy victory over 1400m at Warwick Farm. By Written Tycoon and out of the multiple Group 1 winner In Her Time, he\u2019s regally bred and can further add to his pedigree by winning this race.<\/p>\n

Previously second-up 3rd of 7 in a 2yo 0Sc at Canterbury on July 8 over 1200m, on heavy track; 0.6 len behind Hostwin King carrying 57.5kg at $8.50.

Having returned to winning form with an easy performance over 2000m at Hawkesbury last month, Savvy Spy has only improved as the bar has been raised, winning over a mile and a half at the midweeks before getting up again at Rosehill last Saturday. I completely understand the decision to back up into what looks an open and winnable black type race, and it\u2019s very hard to argue with his recent form and condition heading into this contest.<\/p>\n
