- Finish
- 5th of 13
- Race winner
- Shimmering Sun
Hidden Gift raced towards the rear before making progress in the straight. She kept on to take fifth near the finish, three and three-quarter lengths behind Shimmering Sun; this was a late improvement rather than a fading effort.
NEWCASTLE
Coramento
H. Malone Mechanical & Electrical Handicap
- Finish

Coramento followed the leaders and travelled strongly into contention two furlongs out. He led inside the final furlong and drew clear to beat Beauty Generation by two and a quarter lengths, producing the second lay loss.
Looking ahead
What we learned / things to watch
Both Newcastle picks found plenty late. He’s Our Cracker also overcame racing keenly: that habit alone is not enough to expect a horse to fade. Future checks need to give its ability to finish strongly due weight.
Finishing position needs context. Robert d’Ores weakened late, while Hidden Gift improved into fifth. A beaten horse that finishes well deserves a different follow-up from one that tires.
