1	3 1st (3) (7/1 +0%) Dreams Adozen		7 7/1(+0%)																															(3) Dreams Adozen 7/1, Last 2 victories have come at Chester, the latest in June. 8/1, respectable fourth of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (14f) 12 days ago. Yet to prove herself quite as effective on all-weather but holds place claims nonetheless. 0-7 in this sphere but is nicely weighted off current mark.
2	4 2nd (4) (10/3 -11%) Hedonista		3.333333 10/3(-11%)																															(4) Hedonista 10/3, Course winner. 22/1, step back in right direction when second of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (14f) 12 days ago. Leading player if able to back that up. Should remain competitive provided latest effort is backed up.
3	2 3rd (2) (9/4 -29%) Cello		2.25 9/4(-29%)																															(2) Cello 9/4, Lightly-raced winner. 33/1, creditable second of 9 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f) 18 days ago, needing stiffer test. Significantly up in trip. Expected to be bang there. Ran encouragingly last time while shaping as if worth a go beyond 1m4f.
4	5 4th (5) (5/2 +29%) Something		2.5 5/2(+29%)																															(5) Something 5/2, Dual winner here in October. 9/1, creditable second of 8 in handicap at this course (10.2f) 20 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Has a fine track record and should be in the mix again. Good record over middle distances here; stamina doubt at this new trip.
5th	1 5th (1) (7/1 +30%) Fleurman		7 7/1(+30%)																															(1) Fleurman 7/1, C&D winner. Looked rusty when fifth of 9 in handicap (33/1) at Chelmsford City (14f) 27 days ago. On an interesting mark if back to his best but recent profile is underwhelming. Not solid on 2024 form but this belated return to Newcastle may suit.
6th	6 6th (6) (33/1 +34%) Quercus Robur		33 33/1(+34%)																															(6) Quercus Robur 33/1, C&D winner. 66/1, looked very rusty after 19-month absence when last of 8 in handicap at this course (12.4f) 23 days ago. Significantly up in trip. This run should reveal more. 2-2 over C&D but needs to show he retains ability.

14:59 Newcastle Handicap (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Something was far from disgraced when runner-up over 1m2f here last time and is of interest off the same mark, although this hike up in trip does ask a question of him. With that in mind, DREAMS ADOZEN edges preference. She caught the eye when fourth over 1m6f at Wolverhampton recently and, stepping up in trip off 1lb lower, the five-year-old gets the tentative vote. The unexposed Cello is also noteworthy.

CELLO should prove well suited by the step up to a staying trip and Andrew Balding's lightly-raced gelding is fancied to build on his encouraging effort at Southwell and notch a second career success. Hedonista got right back on track on her second outing after a wind op last time and can pose the biggest threat, whilst Something has a fine record at Newcastle and can't be discounted upped in trip.

Lightly raced CELLO looks open to progress upped in distance and is first choice ahead of Hedonista.

1	9 1st (9) (9/1 +64%) The Caltonian		9 9/1(+64%)																															(9) The Caltonian 9/1, Four-time course winner, scoring twice here in January 2024. After 9 weeks off, step back in right direction when sixth of 13 in handicap (16/1) over C&D 23 days ago. This is tougher but not ruled out at this venue. Didn't get a clear run at it here last month but little wiggle room off his current mark.
2	8 2nd (8) (7/2 +22%) We Never Stop		3.5 7/2(+22%)																															(8) We Never Stop 7/2, Having been gelded/fitted with blinkers, made winning all-weather debut at Southwell (6.1f) in November. Another good effort when second of 4 in conditions stakes (6/4) at the same C&D 18 days ago and he's a major player. Improved for AW/blinkers the last twice; looks ahead of the handicapper; solid contender.
3	1 3rd (1) (4/1 -14%) Albasheer		4 4/1(-14%)																															(1) Albasheer 4/1, Successful twice here in 2024, including this race, and scored at Ascot in July. Not discredited at a higher level last 2 starts, 5¼ lengths fourth of 12 to Night Raider in listed race (12/1) at this C&D 46 days ago. Respected. Won this race last year; lots of solid efforts since & likely to be in the shake up again.
4	3 4th (3) (12/1 -167%) Malc		12 12/1(-167%)																															(3) Malc 12/1, Useful at 2 yrs, notably runner-up in the Norfolk at Royal Ascot. After a couple of lesser efforts in 2024, back on track when second in handicap at this course (5f, 9/1) 40 days ago. Task is now to build on latest run. Good 2nd on AW debut here (5f) in November; return to 6f no issue; still on dangerous mark.
5th	7 5th (7) (13/2 +46%) Rohaan		6.5 13/2(+46%)																															(7) Rohaan 13/2, Useful handicapper nowadays but without a victory in 2024, eighth of 13 in handicap (13/2) at this C&D 23 days ago. However, he lurks on a dangerous mark with blinkers now reached for. 2024 was his first year without a win but he retains ability; new headgear; lowly mark.
6th	10 6th (10) (9/2 +55%) Secret Guest		4.5 9/2(+55%)																															(10) Secret Guest 9/2, Latest win over C&D in February 2024. Placed on several occasions since, just failing having met trouble when second of 13 in handicap (5/1) at this C&D 23 days ago. Can give another good account. Banging at the door since a wind op last summer; conditions to suit; set to go well again.
7th	2 7th (2) (40/1 -233%) Saint Lawrence		40 40/1(-233%)																															(2) Saint Lawrence 40/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2023. Making a belated all-weather debut, well below form when 15¼ lengths eleventh of 12 to Night Raider in listed race (28/1) at this C&D 46 days ago. Others preferred. Huge chance on 2023 form but 2024 campaign was underwhelming; capable but risky.
8th	4 8th (4) (25/1 +0%) Juan Les Pins		25 25/1(+0%)																															(4) Juan Les Pins 25/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2023. Excuses on penultimate outing but never on terms when eighth of 10 in handicap at this course (5f, 14/1) 40 days ago. Mark has eased further but more needed to take advantage. Not easily recommended on recent evidence but there are grounds for expecting better today.
9th	5 9th (5) (10/1 -54%) Amazonian Dream		10 10/1(-54%)																															(5) Amazonian Dream 10/1, Four wins from 12 runs in 2024, looking better than ever when making it back-to-back victories in 10-runner handicap at Kempton (6f, 12/1) 2 weeks ago. Remains lightly-raced on all-weather and can make his presence felt. Better than ever when winning 6f handicaps on last two starts; should remain competitive.
10th	6 10th (6) (17/2 +15%) Fire Demon		8.5 17/2(+15%)																															(6) Fire Demon 17/2, Three-time winner in early-2024, including at this C&D. However, below form the last twice, returning from 7 months off when 8¾ lengths last of 10 to Amazonian Dream in handicap at Kempton (6f, 8/1) 2 weeks ago. Progressive last winter, including C&D; looked to need recent return; still low mileage.

15:34 Newcastle Handicap (Class 2) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

MALC operated at a high level for most of last year and seemed to appreciate a drop in class when second over 5f here last time out. With that being his all-weather debut, there could be improvement to come and he can regain the winning thread back over 6f. The recent Southwell runner-up We Never Stop looks best placed to chase him home, although the hat-trick-seeking Amazonian Dream is another to consider, along with Secret Guest.

WE NEVER STOP has shown improved form switched to all-weather on his last 2 starts, only narrowly denied by one dropping in class at Southwell on his latest outing, so he is taken to resume winning ways back in a handicap. Albasheer was succesful in this race last year and is feared most, while Amazonian Dream can go well in his hat-trick bid.

We Never Stop isn't opposed lightly but MALC showed he could be a force in good AW sprints when second here in November.

1	7 1st (7) (7/2 +56%) Storm Star		3.5 7/2(+56%)																															(7) Storm Star 7/2, Made a successful debut at this course in May 2024. Without a win since but has been holding his form well, third of 6 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 7/1) 60 days ago. More needed to get his head back in front. 0-6 since debut win but is proving very consistent; again likely to give his running.
2	6 2nd (6) (3/1 +40%) Apiarist		3 3/1(+40%)																															(6) Apiarist 3/1, Making all-weather debut, gained a first handicap success when landing 11-runner contest (6/1) at this C&D 26 days ago. Travelled strongly through the race last time and he could still have more to offer. Suited by the switch to AW in C&D contest last month, posting a career-best performance.
3	1 3rd (1) (13/2 -30%) Popmaster		6.5 13/2(-30%)																															(1) Popmaster 13/2, Without a win in 2024 but returned to form on all-weather last 2 starts, 1¾ lengths third of 9 to Poker Face in listed race (8/1) at Kempton (8f) 28 days ago. Merits consideration back in handicap company. Two creditable efforts since returned to AW but still seeking first win beyond 7f.
4	2 4th (2) (17/2 +39%) Symbol Of Light		8.5 17/2(+39%)																															(2) Symbol Of Light 17/2, Runner-up on all-weather first 2 starts in 2024, but in first-time hood/cheekpieces he ended the year on a low note when fourteenth of 17 in handicap at York (7.9f, good, 25/1) in May. Off 7 months. 0-7 for this yard but has a good chance provided he's in top form on return from layoff.
5th	5 5th (5) (25/1 -79%) Empirestateofmind		25 25/1(-79%)																															(5) Empirestateofmind 25/1, Capitalised on much-reduced mark at York in October. Beaten only 1¾ lengths when sixth of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f, 10/1) 20 days ago and he remains well-treated on old form. Ran respectably at Chelmsford last month but is now 0-5 on AW; not the percentage call.
6th	3 6th (3) (15/8 -7%) Qazaq		1.875 15/8(-7%)																															(3) Qazaq 15/8, Maintained unbeaten record when making successful handicap debut in 12-runner event at Southwell (8.1f, 13/8) 50 days ago, overcoming the widest draw. Leading contender with further improvement to come. Made all and held on narrowly at Southwell last time, taking record to 3-3; shortlisted.
7th	4 7th (4) (22/1 -193%) Blue Prince		22 22/1(-193%)																															(4) Blue Prince 22/1, Course winner who added to his tally at Goodwood in July. Has shaped well on all-weather last 2 outings, left poorly placed when fifth of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f, 6/1) 20 days ago. Could be in the mix. Ran creditably upped to 1m at Chelmsford most recently; this is a stiffer test.

16:10 Newcastle Handicap (Class 2) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

Unbeaten in three career outings, this will be the biggest test of QAZAQ's career thus far but the son of Kingman may well be up to the challenge. A determined winner on his first go at 1m last time out at Southwell, Roger Varian's charge is likely to have too much for Apiarist, who got up late to score over C&D last month. A promising fifth when keeping on from off the pace at Chelmsford last time out, Blue Prince completes the shortlist.

QAZAQ made it 3 wins from 3 starts when scoring on handicap debut at Southwell in November, idling final 1f but holding off a fellow improver, and he can continue his progression to add to his tally. Popmaster arrives on the back of a good third at listed level and isn't taken lightly, with Apiarist also considered after his C&D success last time.

Preference is for APIARIST, who looks open to further improvement in this sphere. Unbeaten Qazaq is fearest most.

1	3 1st (3) (33/1 -32%) Novak		33 33/1(-32%)																															(3) Novak 33/1, Course winner. Latest win at Southwell in November. 40/1, eighth of 9 in handicap at this course (5f) 15 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Others make more appeal. 5f too sharp last time & handicapper relenting; stable may have stronger claims elsewhere.
2	12 2nd (12) (11/1 -22%) Bellagio Man		11 11/1(-22%)																															(12) Bellagio Man 11/1, Three-time C&D winner, the latest gained 15 days ago, despite starting slowly away. Nudged up just 2 lb and won't be far away if things again fall right. Swept through to win over C&D two weeks ago; still well treated; solid claims.
3	11 3rd (11) (9/1 -64%) Wee Fat Mac		9 9/1(-64%)																															(11) Wee Fat Mac 9/1, C&D winner. Seventeen runs since last win in 2023. Good second of 11 in handicap at this course (5f, 3/1) 15 days ago. Should remain competitive. Well backed when second over 5f here two weeks ago; contender off the same mark.
4	1 4th (1) (8/1 +0%) Dicko The Legend		8 8/1(+0%)																															(1) Dicko The Legend 8/1, Latest win at York in July. 14/1, creditable fourth of 24 in handicap at Ayr (6f, good to firm) when last seen in September. Resumes from a break off a 1 lb lower mark and in a lower-grade race, so he needs considering. Returns from a break with his mark still within range; effective on Tapeta; considered.
5th	9 5th (9) (17/2 +15%) Profit Street		8.5 17/2(+15%)																															(9) Profit Street 17/2, Course winner. 9/1, creditable third of 8 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f) 19 days ago, unable to sustain effort. No more than an each-way squeak. Two-time course winner; running well since fitted with cheekpieces; this demands more.
6th	2 6th (2) (13/8 +73%) Showtime Mahomes		1.625 13/8(+73%)																															(2) Showtime Mahomes 13/8, Latest win at Southwell in November. Creditable third of 11 in handicap at this C&D (17/2) 4 days ago, conceding first run. Has to be taken seriously off the same mark. Comes here in good form, third over C&D on Saturday; one to consider.
7th	4 7th (4) (11/1 +31%) Blackjack		11 11/1(+31%)																															(4) Blackjack 11/1, C&D winner. 25/1, creditable fourth of 11 in handicap back here 15 days ago. Not without each-way hope. Creditable efforts on last three starts but more will be needed if he's to take this.
8th	10 8th (10) (14/1 -75%) Kats Bob		14 14/1(-75%)																															(10) Kats Bob 14/1, C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2024. Creditable second of 12 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f, 3/1) 22 days ago. Likely to give another good account. Collared late over C&D and at Southwell on his last two starts; up 2lb in a deeper race.
9th	6 9th (6) (6/1 +40%) Too Much		6 6/1(+40%)																															(6) Too Much 6/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in October. Creditable third of 11 in handicap (10/1) at this C&D 15 days ago, not clear run (Blackjack close behind in fourth). Not taken lightly. C&D win in October and she's carried on the good work since; unlucky here latest; claims.
10th	5 10th (5) (20/1 -100%) Moyola		20 20/1(-100%)																															(5) Moyola 20/1, C&D winner. Tenth of 12 in handicap at this course (5f, 5/1) 26 days ago, slowly away. Generally consistent, so there can be hope that he will bounce back and give a good account off this reduced mark. Conditions to suit but often slowly away and disappointed over 5f here last month.
11th	7 11th (7) (25/1 +24%) Rory		25 25/1(+24%)																															(7) Rory 25/1, Unreliable type. C&D winner. Last of 24 in handicap (40/1) at Ayr (6f, good to firm). Off 103 days and he's opposable. Conditions to suit but he's returning from three months off and others are more appealing.
12th	8 12th (8) (40/1 -100%) Howzak		40 40/1(-100%)																															(8) Howzak 40/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in November. 11/1, last of 12 in handicap at this course (5f) 23 days ago. Needs to bounce back with first-time cheekpieces enlisted. Made all over C&D in November; disappointed last time and now tried in headgear.

16:40 Newcastle Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

An unlucky third when not getting a clear run on two separate occasions over C&D last time out, TOO MUCH hinted that another win at this track may be in the offing. Off the same mark the five-year-old merits plenty of respect and she gets the vote ahead of recent C&D winner Bellagio Man, and Kats Bob, who has been runner-up on each of his last two outings. Others to note include Profit Street, Showtime Mahomes and Wee Fat Mac.

Several to consider in this competitive handicap, with DICKO THE LEGEND earning the vote. He bounced back from a couple of below par efforts when a solid fourth in the Ayr Bronze Cup on his latest start and, having acquitted himself well on the all-weather last winter, he is interesting back on a synthetic surface. Showtime Mahomes didn't get the rub of the green when third over C&D on Saturday and he is greatly respected, while Too Much and Wee Fat Mac also enter calculations.

A competitive race of its type. SHOWTIME MAHOMES was a touch unfortunate here on Saturday and can get the better of Bellagio Man.

Fifteen runs since last win in 2023. 5/1, respectable fourth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 3 days ago, left with too much to do. Needs considering. Should be making a big splash at this level but he'll need more than when 4th on Sunday.
2	3 2nd (3) (6/4 +20%) King Of The Jungle		1.5 6/4(+20%)																															(3) King Of The Jungle 6/4, C&D winner. Three wins from 12 runs last year. Latest win at Thirsk in September. 7/1, good second of 12 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f) 4 days ago, nearest finish having suffered a poor run. Weighted to go close. Two-time C&D winner; good run at Southwell at the weekend; leading contender.
3	8 3rd (8) (20/1 -100%) Rockley Point		20 20/1(-100%)																															(8) Rockley Point 20/1, 4-time course winner. 50/1, creditable fourth of 12 in handicap at this C&D 54 days ago. Twenty nine runs since last win in 2023, however. Conditions to suit but on a long losing run and others appeal more for win purposes.
4	5 4th (5) (18/1 -50%) Stone Of Destiny		18 18/1(-50%)																															(5) Stone Of Destiny 18/1, Course winner who got back on track when third of 12 in handicap at Southwell (5f, 22/1) 13 days ago. Untrustworthy individual, though. Better effort when third at Southwell last month; another 2lb lower; each-way shout.
5th	2 5th (2) (8/1 +11%) The Gay Blade		8 8/1(+11%)																															(2) The Gay Blade 8/1, Course winner. Four wins from 19 runs last year. Latest win at Musselburgh in October. Seventh of 11 in handicap (9/1) at this C&D 20 days ago so needs to bounce back. On a competitive mark but reservations about the suitability of 5f remain.
6th	7 6th (7) (17/2 +23%) Doon The Glen		8.5 17/2(+23%)																															(7) Doon The Glen 17/2, Remains a maiden after 18 Flat runs. Good second of 10 in handicap (7/1) at Southwell (6.1f) 13 days ago, no match for winner. Blinkers on 1st time. Considered. 0-18 but capable of winning at this level; new headgear tried now; strong pace would suit.
7th	1 7th (1) (7/1 +22%) Papa Don't Preach		7 7/1(+22%)																															(1) Papa Don't Preach 7/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Chelmsford City in October. Respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f, 20/1) 18 days ago, finishing well. Not taken lightly. Expensive to follow since a Chelmsford win in October but remains in form; each-way shout.
8th	9 8th (9) (12/1 -20%) Elzaal		12 12/1(-20%)																															(9) Elzaal 12/1, 5-time C&D winner. Twenty runs since last win in 2023. 7/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at this C&D 54 days ago. Must improve. Multiple C&D winner but losing run adding up and not at his best in the autumn.
9th	6 9th (6) (25/1 -25%) Hard Nut		25 25/1(-25%)																															(6) Hard Nut 25/1, Latest win at Musselburgh in August. 40/1, eighth of 9 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good to soft) 79 days ago. Something to find on form. Hard to win with but conditions fine and he has a good apprentice booked on his return.

17:10 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

KING OF THE JUNGLE produced a pleasing effort to take the silver medal home at Southwell four days ago. With Lewis Chalkley claiming a handy 7lb this time around, he could prove very hard to beat. Stone Of Destiny showed a lot more when making the frame at the same venue on his latest outing and has to be respected off a 2lb lower mark, while Doon The Glen is another to consider.

KING OF THE JUNGLE didn't enjoy the rub of the green when runner-up at Southwell last time and is fancied to make amends off an unchanged mark here. Fellow C&D winner Papa Don't Preach rates the main danger, with Show Me Show Me and Doon The Glen also in the mix.

Show Me Show Me can go well but KING OF THE JUNGLE (nap) is preferred on the back of a good Southwell run on Saturday.

1	4 1st (4) (11/4 -22%) Oriental Prince		2.75 11/4(-22%)																															(4) Oriental Prince 11/4, 7/2, showed improved form to get off the mark in first-time hood in 11-runner handicap at this C&D just over 2 weeks ago. May have better still to come so expected to be bang there. Off the mark over C&D last time and he's open to more progress at this trip; big player.
2	5 2nd (5) (16/1 -14%) Three Beauz		16 16/1(-14%)																															(5) Three Beauz 16/1, C&D winner in July but out of sorts since next start at Catterick. Hard to enthuse over despite a tumbling mark. Won over C&D in July but she's been well below that form in last four runs and is now 1-18.
3	3 3rd (3) (6/1 +8%) Rogue De Vega		6 6/1(+8%)																															(3) Rogue De Vega 6/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in November. 17/2, wasn't disgraced when fourth of 12 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 13 days ago. Enters calculations back at a career-low mark but needs things to drop just right given his style. Won at Wolverhampton three runs back and has claims if this sets up for his closing style.
4	7 4th (7) (10/3 +52%) Pockley		3.333333 10/3(+52%)																															(7) Pockley 10/3, 3-time C&D winner. Twenty-two runs since last win in 2023. 9/2, failed to build on the promise of previous run when 4¾ lengths eighth of 11 to Oriental Prince in handicap at this C&D 15 days ago. Blinkers back on. Frequent slow starter who was never involved here latest and losing run is now up to 22.
5th	8 5th (8) (17/2 +58%) Shatin Venture		8.5 17/2(+58%)																															(8) Shatin Venture 17/2, Ran poorly again after just 2 days off when fifth of 7 in handicap (14/1) at Ayr (6f, good) when last seen 5 months ago. Makes all-weather debut. Still lightly raced but he's untried on AW and has some work to do after a break.
6th	6 6th (6) (9/1 -157%) Piperstown		9 9/1(-157%)																															(6) Piperstown 9/1, 13/2, career best when winning 11-runner handicap at Southwell (5f) 18 days ago, leading final 1f. Fancied to be in the mix nudged up 3 lb. Off the mark when finishing well to score at Southwell 18 days ago; respected up 3lb.
7th	2 7th (2) (8/1 +43%) Masterclass		8 8/1(+43%)																															(2) Masterclass 8/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2023. 10/1, failed to come on for recent run when tenth of 12 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f) just over 3 weeks ago. Blinkers back on. Last win was 14 months ago and has form figures of 9635080 for current yard; opposable.
8th	1 8th (1) (6/1 +8%) Jamie Bond		6 6/1(+8%)																															(1) Jamie Bond 6/1, 14/1, fared better than of late when 2¾ lengths fourth of 11 to Oriental Prince in handicap at this C&D just over 2 weeks ago, no extra last ½f. Mark eases another 2 lb and he could well get involved partnered by a very talented apprentice. Signs of revival when fourth behind Oriental Prince over C&D last month; not ruled out.

17:40 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Piperstown shed his maiden tag at Southwell on his most recent start and holds an obvious chance off a 3lb higher rating. However, a chance can be taken on ORIENTAL PRINCE, who struck by a length over C&D last time and the handicapper might have been kind to only put him up 4lb for that performance. The son of Orientor can complete a double, while Rogue De Vega could grab a place.

ORIENTAL PRINCE looked well suited by the drop to 5f when getting off the mark in a first-time hood over C&D recently and, with better still to come, Jim Goldie's 4-y-o can follow up. Piperstown also opened his account last month and he should be in the mix on the back of a small rise, with Jamie Bond and Rogue de Vega taken to fight out minor honours.

This is a tight call between the two recent winners in Piperstown and ORIENTAL PRINCE but the vote goes to the Jim Goldie's 4yo.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.
