16:50 Newcastle Stakes (Class 6) 10f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	8 1st (8) (7/1 -75%) Violeta	7 7/1(-75%)	(8) Violeta 7/1, Sole success came over C&D in September. Has offered little tried over hurdles of late, ninth of 10 in maiden at this venue (16.9f, good, 200/1) 19 days ago, but she could fare better back on the level. C&D winner but she arrives below par, including over hurdles here last month; more needed.
2	2 2nd (2) (9/4 +44%) Eva Rosie	2.25 9/4(+44%)	(2) Eva Rosie 9/4, Off the mark in handicap at this C&D in January and shaped as if still in good form when fifth of 11 in handicap at Southwell (11.1f, 12/1) 34 days ago. Cheekpieces reapplied and she's a major player back down in grade. C&D winner; good fifth at Southwell latest; big shout at these weights with cheekpieces on.
3	6 3rd (6) (7/2 +0%) Rampant	3.5 7/2(+0%)	(6) Rampant 7/2, Remains a maiden but has made the frame in C&D handicaps all 3 starts for current yard, respectable fourth of 6 (13/2) on latest outing 3 weeks. Could be in the mix having his first try in this grade. Yet to register a victory but he comes here in good nick; very much one to consider.
4	3 4th (3) (11/2 +39%) Keen Interest	5.5 11/2(+39%)	(3) Keen Interest 11/2, Doubled his tally at this C&D in November. However, he's run below form last 2 starts, seventh of 11 in handicap (33/1) at Southwell (11.1f) 34 days ago. Others more persuasive. Scored over C&D in November but his more recent efforts are less encouraging.
5th	1 5th (1) (10/3 -11%) Dee's Dream	3.333333 10/3(-11%)	(1) Dee's Dream 10/3, One win from 23 Flat runs but has returned to form last 2 starts, third of 8 in minor event at Southwell (12.1f, 85/40) 41 days ago. Enters calculations in her current mood. Back on track for her current yard, third at Southwell latest; ought to be thereabouts.
6th	4 6th (4) (150/1 -200%) Matt Cool	150 150/1(-200%)	(4) Matt Cool 150/1, Didn't show much in a trio of novice races last year, in first-time cheekpieces when well-beaten fourth of 5 at Redcar (8f, soft, 250/1) when last seen in October. Major improvement required as he goes up in trip. Has offered little in three races; needs a major step forward after five-month layoff.
7th	5 7th (5) (66/1 -676%) Pilgrim Of Culture	66 66/1(-676%)	(5) Pilgrim Of Culture 66/1, Has finished down the field in handicaps all 3 starts for current yard this year, last of 11 at this course (8f, 50/1) 3 weeks ago. Cheekpieces now reached for as she goes back up in trip. Still a maiden and she came in last of 11 in 1m handicap here three weeks ago.

16:50 Newcastle Stakes (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

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

After returning with a reasonable fourth-placed finish in handicap over this C&D three weeks ago, RAMPANT is worth a shot at this level. Capable claimer Warren Fentiman, who was in the saddle that day, retains the ride and a bold showing is expected from the partnership in this weaker event. Violeta won a deeper race over track and trip last September and is feared most on that basis. Similar comments apply to fellow C&D winner Eva Rosie, who is another strong contender on these terms.

EVA ROSIE was suited by the step back up in trip when opening her account over C&D on her penultimate start and, having not been ideally placed last time, she is taken to resume winning ways back at this level. Dee's Dream has run well in this grade on her last 2 outings and could be thereabouts once more, with Rampant also considered.

Most of these arrive with question marks against them and this looks a good opportunity for C&D winner EVA ROSIE to resume winning ways.

17:30 Newcastle Stakes (Class 6) 10f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 1st (1) (1/1 +38%) Ana Emaraaty	1 1/1(+38%)	(1) Ana Emaraaty 1/1, Successful twice at this course last year and got back on track when fourth of 10 in handicap here (6f, 13/2) 40 days ago, never nearer. Has form at this longer trip and he's a leading contender back down in grade. Last win was over 6f but versatile tripwise and he's dangerous at this lowly level.
2	4 2nd (4) (50/1 -100%) Mr Coco Bean	50 50/1(-100%)	(4) Mr Coco Bean 50/1, Long time without a victory and has been struggling for form, last of 10 in handicap at this course (7.1f, 40/1) 37 days ago. Others preferred as he goes significantly back up in trip. On a long losing run and stepping back up in trip needs to have a dramatic effect.
3	8 3rd (8) (5/1 +0%) Yakhabar	5 5/1(+0%)	(8) Yakhabar 5/1, Won twice here early last year (both at 12.5f). Inadequate test when fourth of 7 in minor event (10/1) at this course (8f) 3 days ago, so he's one to note as he returns to this longer distance. Two course wins last year; fair run over 1m here on Monday; no headgear today.
4	7 4th (7) (7/4 +47%) Spartan Times	1.75 7/4(+47%)	(7) Spartan Times 7/4, Has fared better upped in trip this year, in first-time cheekpieces when fourth of 11 in minor event at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 14/1) 31 days ago. Remains lightly raced so he could still have more to offer. Hint of ability at a low level; may yet do better and that makes him of interest.
5th	3 5th (3) (18/1 -260%) Hot Team	18 18/1(-260%)	(3) Hot Team 18/1, Eleven runs since most recent success in 2024 and below form last 2 starts, last of 6 in handicap (28/1) at this C&D 3 weeks ago. However, he's a C&D winner and isn't ruled out back down at this level. C&D winner; two turf wins last summer; quiet this winter but he's been found a weak race.
6th	5 6th (5) (25/1 -79%) Our Noble Lord	25 25/1(-79%)	(5) Our Noble Lord 25/1, Remains a maiden and was never involved when eighth of 9 in handicap (22/1) at this C&D 47 days ago, very slowly away. Could do with brushing up his starts, though he was placed on his last outing in this grade. Modest maiden but he ran well in similar race at Ayr last summer; risky but not ruled out.

17:30 Newcastle Stakes (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

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

ANA EMARAATY, who has been placed twice in handicaps over this C&D in the past, looks well worth another try over this distance in a race where most of his rivals are struggling for notable recent form. Spartan Times and Yakhabar have at least dropped hints that their turns might not be far away, while Hot Team is another to note in this grade.

Having won twice at this course last year, ANA EMARAATY took a step back in the right direction when fourth here on his latest outing, despite having been denied a clear run, so he could be ready to return to winning ways. Yakhabar promises to be suited by this step back up in trip and is feared most, ahead of Spartan Times.

An unappealing betting contest in which the lightly raced SPARTAN TIMES is marginally preferred to Ana Emaraaty.

18:00 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 5f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
8	8 (8) (100/1 -456%) Luna A Inbhir Nis	100 100/1(-456%)	(8) Luna A Inbhir Nis 100/1, Thrice-raced winner. Won 2-runner novice (7/2) at this C&D 12 days ago, pushed out. Makes handicap debut. More required. Won a slowly-run two-runner C&D novice 12 days ago; this a much stiffer test of her merit.
1	7 1st (7) (6/1 +40%) The Vital Spark	6 6/1(+40%)	(7) The Vital Spark 6/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Eleventh of 12 in nursery (85/40) at Southwell (5f) 90 days ago. Must improve. Disappointed on handicap debut but well backed there and retains potential; down in class.
2	4 2nd (4) (6/5 +60%) Frankies Dream	1.2 6/5(+60%)	(4) Frankies Dream 6/5, Course winner. Latest win here in February. 5/2, respectable fifth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 25 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Expected to be bang there. Engaged 6.45 here Wednesday. Four wins this year and did well to win cosily here on Wednesday (6f); still on the up.
3	5 3rd (5) (14/1 -40%) Startling	14 14/1(-40%)	(5) Startling 14/1, C&D winner. Three wins from 10 runs last year. Latest win here in December. 25/1, creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at this C&D 64 days ago. Three wins as a 2yo, including C&D; not beaten far here last time; vulnerable to improvers.
4	6 4th (6) (18/1 -157%) She Went Whoosh	18 18/1(-157%)	(6) She Went Whoosh 18/1, 4/1, good second of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 17 days ago, no match for winner. Can make presence felt. 0-8 but often placed, including in a handicap 17 days ago; each-way shout again.
5th	9 5th (9) (20/1 -100%) Auntie Jo	20 20/1(-100%)	(9) Auntie Jo 20/1, Creditable third of 8 in handicap (18/5) at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 17 days ago. Has finished behind two of today's rivals on her last two starts; improvement required.
6th	1 6th (1) (5/1 -11%) Cemlyn	5 5/1(-11%)	(1) Cemlyn 5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 2/1, respectable third of 9 in novice at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 16 days ago, left poorly placed. Needs considering. Consistent rather than progressive; stiff 5f could suit well though and not discounted.
7th	2 7th (2) (14/1 -17%) Youvegotoshowmeluv	14 14/1(-17%)	(2) Youvegotoshowmeluv 14/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Tongue strap on for 1st time, below form fourth of 8 in maiden at Southwell (5f, 18/1) 20 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Not matched debut promise in three runs since; may do so now handicapping.
8th	3 8th (3) (11/2 -38%) Fallen Soldier	5.5 11/2(-38%)	(3) Fallen Soldier 11/2, Creditable third of 7 in handicap (15/2) at Chelmsford City (5f) 5 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. 13-race maiden; missed out by a nose over C&D off this mark in January; should run well.

18:00 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

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

SHE WENT WHOOSH appeals the most after a respectable second-placed finish over this trip at Wolverhampton last month. That effort can be upgraded given the Profitable filly was taken off a true line in the closing stages and from the same mark, she could go one place better. Fallen Soldier and Startling are shortlist suggestions, with the former rated the chief danger on the back of a consistent run of form.

The thriving FRANKIES DREAM wasn't seen to best effect at Lingfield last time and is well worth another chance. She Went Whoosh and Cemlyn are others to consider.

Plenty of possibles but it might be worth giving another chance to THE VITAL SPARK now down in class. Fallen Soldier is next best.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	2 1st (2) (13/2 +54%) Camino Del Ray	6.5 13/2(+54%)	(2) Camino Del Ray 13/2, Cable Bay gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including 2-y-o 6f winners Goal Exceeded and Galaxy Gazer. Dam, maiden (stayed 7f), sister to useful winner up to 6f Stars Above Me. Half-brother to three winners; stable in fine form; betting can guide.
2	3 2nd (3) (85/40 -31%) Moby Quick	2.125 85/40(-31%)	(3) Moby Quick 85/40, Thrice-raced maiden. 3/1, third of 12 in maiden at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 87 days ago, not seen to best effect having been trapped wider than ideal throughout. Remains with potential. Improved with each run & wasn't well drawn when 3rd at Wolverhampton last time; contender.
3	1 3rd (1) (9/4 +59%) Oberon Hill	2.25 9/4(+59%)	(1) Oberon Hill 9/4, Twice-raced gelding on Flat. Second of 5 in novice at this C&D (18/1) 14 days ago, slowly away. Respected. Two encouraging Flat runs here last month; more minor money on the cards.
4	4 4th (4) (3/1 -20%) Papa Oscar	3 3/1(-20%)	(4) Papa Oscar 3/1, Expert Eye gelding. Half-brother to several winners, including smart pair around 1m Juliet Foxtrot and Tsar, and useful 2-y-o 6f winner Juliet Sierra. Well backed but too green when sixth of 8 in maiden at Kempton (7f, 1/2) on debut 22 days ago. Clearly thought capable of better. Tame effort at Kempton on debut but sent off the 1-2 fav; could leave that run well behind.
5th	6 5th (6) (28/1 +15%) Ardilly Breeze	28 28/1(+15%)	(6) Ardilly Breeze 28/1, Twice-raced filly. Last of 5 in maiden at this course (6f, 25/1) 12 days ago. Just modest form in two Tapeta runs this winter; minor handicaps beckon.
6th	7 6th (7) (10/1 +70%) Storm Kitty	10 10/1(+70%)	(7) Storm Kitty 10/1, Outstrip filly. Half-sister to useful 6f-1m winner Cuban Tiger. Dam, useful Italian 1m winner (including at 2 yrs) who stayed 1¼m, half-sister to useful 8.5f-11f (minor US stakes) winner Picou. Half-sister to Listed winner; appeals on paper but yard not renowned for winning newcomers.

18:30 Newcastle Maiden (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Although Papa Oscar proved underwhelming when finishing sixth at very short odds on his debut at Kempton last month, the son of Expert Eye should have learned plenty from that experience. Harry Charlton's gelding isn't taken lightly, but MOBY QUICK rates as the one to beat. The George Scott-trained gelding arrives on the back of a close-up third over this trip at Wolverhampton and a similar performance may prove sufficient here. Oberon Hill and newcomer Westington House are also noted.

MOBY QUICK went close at Wolverhampton last time despite being trapped wide throughout and he sets the standard. Papa Oscar was a major disappointment at Kempton on debut having been all the rage in the betting but is evidently thought capable of better.

Considerably better was expected of Papa Oscar on debut and he can leave that behind. That said, MOBY QUICK looks a safer option.

6	6 (6) (22/1 +0%) Kit Gabriel	22 22/1(+0%)	(6) Kit Gabriel 22/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in December but only seventh of 10 back there the following month. Cheekpieces back on. 8.6f win in December; fair run next time; cheekpieces return but he's up in class.
1	1 1st (1) (7/2 +22%) Mr Baloo	3.5 7/2(+22%)	(1) Mr Baloo 7/2, Latest win at Southwell in February. 11/4, creditable third of 13 in handicap at Kempton (1m) 8 days ago. Respected. Three fine runs, with and without headgear, this year; in the shake up once more.
2	4 2nd (4) (11/1 -69%) Brazilian Rose	11 11/1(-69%)	(4) Brazilian Rose 11/1, Racked up a 6f course hat-trick in January. Showed she's effective at 7f when close third here on penultimate start and this easier than the Lingfield Class 2 she contested last time. Can bounce back. Having a good year but she needs to bounce back from a lesser Lingfield run two weeks ago.
3	10 3rd (10) (33/1 -32%) Outrun The Storm	33 33/1(-32%)	(10) Outrun The Storm 33/1, C&D winner. Two wins from 6 runs last year but below par both comeback runs in recent months. Mark on the slide but best watched until showing more. C&D winner last year but he hasn't shone in two runs this time around.
4	3 4th (3) (11/4 +8%) So Quiet	2.75 11/4(+8%)	(3) So Quiet 11/4, Tongue strap on first time, creditable second of 12 in handicap (2/1) at Southwell (7f) 19 days ago. Looks competitive on form. Still seeking a first handicap win and proving most frustrating; sure to be popular again.
5th	8 5th (8) (16/1 -167%) Starliner	16 16/1(-167%)	(8) Starliner 16/1, C&D winner. Creditable fourth of 11 in handicap at Southwell (1m, 25/1) 19 days ago. Expected to be bang there. C&D winner in November off 2lb lower; mixed since but capable on a good day.
6th	7 6th (7) (4/1 +60%) Swiss Ace	4 4/1(+60%)	(7) Swiss Ace 4/1, Three-time C&D winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2023. Respectable sixth of 12 in handicap (28/1) at Southwell (7f) 19 days ago and was runner-up over C&D in January under Billy Loughnane. Claims with Loughnane back in the saddle. Three-time C&D winner; on a dangerous mark and had an excuse (draw) latest; contender.
7th	5 7th (5) (28/1 -75%) Abruzzo Mia	28 28/1(-75%)	(5) Abruzzo Mia 28/1, C&D winner. Creditable third on 7f Southwell reappearance in January but well beaten back there since. Conditions to suit but needs to bounce back from a lacklustre run at Southwell last month.
8th	2 8th (2) (9/1 +36%) Vibrato	9 9/1(+36%)	(2) Vibrato 9/1, Three wins at the end of 2024, including C&D. Recent efforts suggest the handicapper may be winning the argument, though. Three wins in late 2024, including C&D; struggled more recently but down in weights.
9th	9 9th (9) (8/1 -33%) Mereside Madness	8 8/1(-33%)	(9) Mereside Madness 8/1, Three-time C&D winner, the latest in February. Creditable third of 7 in handicap at Southwell (7f, 7/2) 13 days ago. C&D win last month followed by two solid placed efforts; up in class but should run well.

19:00 Newcastle Handicap (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Having return to form with a close-up second at Southwell last month, SO QUIET looks ready to strike here. A 1lb nudge up in the ratings for the four-year-old could prove inconsequential and he gets the verdict over Mr Baloo. Richard Hannon's colt posted a respectable third when bidding for a double at Kempton recently and, racing off an unchanged mark, another good account is forecast. Fellow in-form runner Mereside Madness may fare best of the remainder.

MR BALOO is in a good vein of form at present and is taken to resume winning ways. So Quiet rates an obvious danger on the back of his recent Southwell second, while Brazilian Rose found a Lingfield Class 2 too much last time but can show she's still in form at a venue where she's done very well this year.

So Quiet has the ability to win a race of this nature but so does SWISS ACE and he edges preference.

4	4 (4) (11/4 +0%) Castan	2.75 11/4(+0%)	(4) Castan 11/4, Has reacted really well to cheekpieces, completing a front-running hat-trick under Paul Mulrennan when seeing off 9 rivals over C&D 14 days ago. Can defy the handicapper again. 3-3 since cheekpieces were added; 2lb rise for latest win looks fair; high on the list.
1	3 1st (3) (9/4 +44%) Monks Dream	2.25 9/4(+44%)	(3) Monks Dream 9/4, C&D winner. Good runner-up efforts here in recent weeks and should go well again. Runner-up here the last twice; 1lb well in and he should remain competitive.
2	5 2nd (5) (15/2 -15%) Dark Kestrel	7.5 15/2(-15%)	(5) Dark Kestrel 15/2, C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2024. 5/1, bit below form fourth of 8 in C&D handicap 9 days ago. Capable off this mark but likely he'll need them to go too hard early if he's to win.
3	7 3rd (7) (4/1 0%) King's Crown	4 4/1(0%)	(7) King's Crown 4/1, In good form, including a ready C&D win 12 days ago. Merits consideration. Ready C&D win 12 days ago but that was a small-field Class 6; this demands much more.
4	1 4th (1) (11/2 +45%) Alligator Alley	5.5 11/2(+45%)	(1) Alligator Alley 11/2, C&D winner. 12/1, bit below form sixth of 14 in C&D handicap when last seen in October. First run for yard after leaving David O'Meara. Possibility he'll need the run but Loughnane has been booked. He's been much better than this level in his day and an intriguing runner on stable debut.
5th	2 5th (2) (10/1 +17%) Zarzyni	10 10/1(+17%)	(2) Zarzyni 10/1, Latest win at Musselburgh in September but off since a lesser run at Wolverhampton the following month. Talented but hard to win with; can go well fresh so each-way claims back from 5 months off.
6th	8 6th (8) (25/1 -14%) Herakles	25 25/1(-14%)	(8) Herakles 25/1, C&D winner. 9/2, last of 7 over C&D when last seen in November. Might need this after 4 months off. Effective over C&D but absent since a low-key run in November; others look stronger.
7th	6 7th (6) (15/2 +17%) Our Absent Friends	7.5 15/2(+17%)	(6) Our Absent Friends 15/2, C&D winner. 2 lengths seventh of 10 to Castan over C&D (8/1) 14 days ago. Eased another 2 lb but need to see more. Only seventh behind Castan here two weeks ago; 4lb better off but others make more appeal.

19:30 Newcastle Handicap (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

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

CASTAN completed a hat-trick over C&D a fortnight ago with something to spare and his winning run may not be ending any time soon. A 2lb nudge up in the ratings looks on the lenient side and Bryan Smart's charge is fancied to repel chief rivals Monks Dream and King's Crown. That pair have been in good heart at this track of late and they should keep the selection honest, with the former looking slightly better handicapped at present.

A further 2 lb nudge from the handicapper doesn't look enough to prevent CASTAN making it 4 in a row since fitted with cheekpieces. Monk's Dream and King's Crown arrive in form and can give Bryan Smart's charge most to do.

Castan is thriving but the returning pair Zarzyni and ALLIGATOR ALLEY could have his measure this time.

Creditable ½-length second of 8 to William Dewhirst in handicap at this C&D (7/2) 49 days ago. Can remain competitive.

Latest win here in February. 3/1, creditable third of 7 in handicap at this course (7.1f) 9 days ago. 3 lb lower here. Six course wins since November; prominent racer so a tactical race wouldn't be a worry.

Last of 11 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 9/1) 8 days ago, though he was left poorly placed from a disadvantageous draw. Three 6f AW wins this winter; caught wide at Kempton last week; better expected here.
4	4 4th (4) (6/1 -71%) Mondammej	6 6/1(-71%)	(4) Mondammej 6/1, Five-time course winner. Latest win here in January. Creditable third of 7 in handicap (9/1) at Southwell (5f) 12 days ago. Back up in trip and he's on his last winning mark. Four course wins this winter; latest Southwell third was creditable; capable on a good day.

20:00 Newcastle Handicap (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

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

WILLIAM DEWHIRST was attempting to win for the fifth time in 2025 when finishing third under a 5lb penalty here last Tuesday and Ben Haslam's gelding, who can now run off his official rating which is 3lb lower, is presented with an excellent opportunity to strike. Pals Battalion is in the right hands to continue improving, while the enigmatic Mondammej is interesting back on his last winning mark.

WILLIAM DEWHIRST can boast a superb course record and having posted another sound effort when third under a penalty over 7f last week, he could be the answer from 3 lb lower. Mondammej is back on his last successful mark so he commands respect, along with Pals Battalion.

Pals Battalion may have to give best to his old adversary WILLIAM DEWHIRST (nap) once again.

2	2 (2) (22/1 -175%) Pinjarra	22 22/1(-175%)	(2) Pinjarra 22/1, Seventh of 10 in handicap (10/1) at Southwell (7.1f) 20 days ago. Cheekpieces on first time back up in trip. Regressive but isn't without hope if first-time headgear helps stepping back up from 7f.
1	3 1st (3) (3/1 +33%) Just Typical	3 3/1(+33%)	(3) Just Typical 3/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in February. 4/1, got no cover from his wide draw when last of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 16 days ago. That run can be forgiven and he enters calculations. Usual cheekpieces off. Everything went wrong at Wolverhampton latest and is better than that; one to consider.
2	1 2nd (1) (9/2 +25%) Concert Boy	4.5 9/2(+25%)	(1) Concert Boy 9/2, C&D winner. Latest win here in February. 4/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at this course (7.1f) 7 days ago, badly hampered and therefore unlucky not to finish closer. Up in trip and down in class. Course regular who's enjoying a consistent year; this mark should be within range.
3	4 3rd (4) (10/1 +29%) Mr Jetman	10 10/1(+29%)	(4) Mr Jetman 10/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2023. 25/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW) 50 days ago, merely closing up late. First run for yard after leaving Ivan Furtado and worth a market check from this reduced mark. Plenty of short-priced defeats to go with his sole win; bit to prove for another new yard.
4	8 4th (8) (9/1 +44%) Made All	9 9/1(+44%)	(8) Made All 9/1, 9/1, eighth of 10 in handicap at this course (7.1f) 3 days ago. Long-standing maiden so others preferred. Has often not seen it out over this longer trip and is some way down the pecking order.
4	5 4th (5) (22/1 -38%) Evoluir	22 22/1(-38%)	(5) Evoluir 22/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in February. Sixth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 17/2) 12 days ago. Done a lot of his racing in sprints; stamina to prove going beyond 7f for the first time.
6th	6 6th (6) (3/1 +14%) Odd Socks Havana	3 3/1(+14%)	(6) Odd Socks Havana 3/1, Four-time C&D winner. Creditable second of 7 in handicap at this C&D (11/2) 9 days ago. Has to be taken seriously from the same mark. Back to form when beaten a neck over C&D last Tuesday; holds obvious claims.
7th	7 7th (7) (8/1 -100%) Yorkshire Glory	8 8/1(-100%)	(7) Yorkshire Glory 8/1, Fifth of 8 in handicap at this course (10.2f, 7/2). Off 170 days and this looks a more suitable trip. Better expected up to 1m2f here when last seen six months ago; too soon to write him off.
8th	9 8th (9) (10/1 -67%) Pop Favorite	10 10/1(-67%)	(9) Pop Favorite 10/1, Six-time C&D winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2024. 5/2, creditable fourth of 8 in minor event at this C&D 6 days ago, nearest finish. Often misses the break and will always need races to pan out his way; remains capable.

20:30 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

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

JUST TYPICAL disappointed at Wolverhampton last time when running a little flat just five days after scoring over this C&D. The four-year-old is capable of bouncing back in what appears to be a very winnable contest on paper. Concert Boy's best form has come here and Katie Scott's gelding is respected along with Pop Favorite, who has been knocking on the door recently.

Having dropped below his last winning mark, ODD SOCKS HAVANA turned in another solid Newcastle effort when second a week ago and he now looks ready to strike. Just Typical had an excuse last time so he can bounce back, with Mr Jetman one to monitor in the betting.

Nothing went right for JUST TYPICAL last time and he can confirm earlier C&D dominance over Pop Favorite and Odd Socks Havana.
