Terry Croft is hoping the racing Gods smile more favourably on him when he takes two good chances to his home track meeting on Tuesday.

For the second straight year, New Zealand Bloodstock is teaming up with the Newcastle Jockey Club to stage a lucrative New Zealand-themed raceday at Newcastle Racecourse this Saturday.

Lightly raced three-year-old Golden Age has signalled his promise with a classy win at Warwick Farm.

A beautiful ride by Brenton Avdulla has helped Shalailed break his maiden.
