13:40 Newcastle (Class 2) 6f Race Class Flow

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

Aramram finished a creditable sixth in the Wokingham last week and he's respected along with Windsor scorer Durham Castle. Drawn well in stall 10, though, it might pay to side with DRAMA. Now three from seven on an artificial surface following last month's Kempton triumph, James Ferguson's gelding should have more to offer, despite a subsequent 7lb rise. At a price, it would be unwise to rule out Sergeant Wilko, who responded well to first-time cheekpieces (retained) when fourth at Haydock latest.

A host of interesting handicappers but DRAMA goes from strength to strength on the AW and could be the answer.

14:10 Newcastle (Class 1) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

British Champions Sprint hero KIND OF BLUE disappointed in a Group 3 at Chantilly on his seasonal return, but he fluffed his lines at the start and the classy Blue Point colt will take all the beating if able to bounce back. Blinkered for the first time following a lacklustre performance in the John Of Gaunt, Alyanaabi is another on something of a retrieval mission but he remains of interest, as does progressive handicapper Ferrous, who boasts an excellent record on the all-weather (five wins from seven starts).

The class act is KIND OF BLUE, and although James Fanshawe's 4yo must concede 7lb and more all round he can prove up to the task.

14:40 Newcastle (Class 2) 16f Race Class Flow

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

Godsend went from strength to strength last season before returning to record a comfortable success in a three-runner contest at Nottingham last month. He's 7lb higher but should give punters another good run for their money, although it is CONTACTO who shades preference. Andrew Balding's charge kept on well into fourth at Goodwood on his reappearance, when just behind a subsequent winner. He is able to compete from an unchanged mark and, with more to come over staying trips, should go close. Others to note include Humble Spark, Weddell Sea and Tryfan.

The Sir Mark Prescott-trained GODSEND completed a four-timer on his reappearance and his prolific ways can continue.

15:15 Newcastle (Class 2) 16f Race Class Flow

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

Last year's hero Onesmoothoperator has a 12lb higher rating to contend with, but he has every chance of retaining his crown after his fifth in a Grade 2 at Meydan in March. Dancing In Paris finished a close third behind subsequent Royal Ascot winner French Master at Goodwood and is noted, but ZANNDABAD looks the way to go. The six-year-old made the frame in the Chester Cup last year and is just 1lb higher now. His seventh at the Curragh earlier in month is likely to have put him spot-on and he can take this valuable prize.

Irish-trained TRIBAL STAR (nap) gave a taster of what he might deliver when runner-up in the AW Championship race over C&D in April.

15:45 Newcastle (Class 2) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Rare Change has gone from strength to strength since being gelded, scoring in three out of his last four starts. However, with all of those victories coming on turf, he is passed over for the returning CITY WALK. The eight-year-old was successful by two lengths off a 1lb lower rating at Chelmsford when last seen on these shores and he has since struck in handicap company at Meydan. With the Saeed bin Suroor yard in good form, he gets the vote. Native Warrior sports a first-time visor and is another to keep an eye on.

Several runners are interesting, particularly seasonal debutant DOSMAN. Second choice is Native Warrior.

Ninth Crusade was odds-on to make a winning introduction and duly obliged by half a length at Wolverhampton earlier in the month, and the booking of Jamie Spencer catches the eye. Veiled Truth is likely to build on his debut third at Hamilton, but the vote goes to SANDS OF SPAIN. The son of Sands Of Mali progressed from his first outing to score by a neck at Carlisle and will have plenty more to offer.

Potentially useful NINTH CRUSADE is taken to follow up his Wolverhampton success. Ice Cold Alex is second choice.

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

A rejuvenated LENNY'S SPIRIT has won both starts on the turf at Lingfield since joining Denis Quinn's yard. The seven-year-old looked to score with plenty up his sleeve last week and he can effectively race off a 2lb lower mark with Warren Fentiman's allowance taken into account. Haliphon has been threatening a return to winning ways having eased in the weights and he merits consideration, while the Irish raider Pralognan is worth noting with Jim Crowley taking over the reins.

Preference is for lightly raced 5yo PAPER DOLL who has encouraging handicap form. Lenny's Spirit is second choice.

17:30 Newcastle (Class 5) 12f Race Class Flow

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

The consistent Freddy Robinson still looks a shade high in the weights and usually finds at least one too good, whereas TEE AITCH AYE has plenty of scope off his current mark, having finished an encouraging third at Carlisle on his handicap debut. Iain Jardine's charge has untapped potential over this longer trip and a strong challenge is anticipated. Secret Rock and Spiced Rum also warrant respect.

Tony Martin's Secret Rock is feared but preference is for SPICED RUM who shaped nicely on her stable debut at Wolverhampton.

About U.K Horse Racing

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

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.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
