IMO that is really pushing the limits of this mount.  You
would be much happier with something like the MI250,
AP900, or NJP.  But all of these are quite a step up
in money.  If you can't afford a new one then browse
Astromart for a used one.

Due to the somewhat short FL of the Newt it _may_
work, most of the time, but you will likely have
an unacceptable percentage of ruined images.
