Timeform's Australian SmartPlays: Thursday 13 August

#4 Reaching - Newcastle R5 (06:05)

Reaching has hit the frame in three of her four starts to date and her pedigree is an ongoing recommendation. She won a trial at Gosford in impressive fashion earlier this month and shouldn't be too long in shedding her maiden tag. Morethannumberone steps back in class here and is also expected to be in the mix.

#4 Blazing Sunrise - Newcastle R7 (07:15)

Blazing Sunrise has returned in good form following the enforced break, finding only one too good in both his outings. He should appreciate the cut in the ground, has James McDonald taking over in the saddle and is expected to go close. Somnus and Silent Agenda appeal as the two most likely dangers.

#2 Sweeping Brook - Newcastle R8 (07:50)

Sweeping Brook's recent form is impressive for this race, twice finishing runner-up before breaking his maiden at the third attempt at Wyong last time, winning by three and a half lengths. An inside draw will certainly do his chances no harm and another bold showing is expected from Mark Newnham's charge. Exhibition also arrives here on the back of a win and looms a real danger, while Hubble can prove the pick of the remainder.
