7/1(-27%)
(4) Spirit Of Ash 7/1, 4-time course winner last year. Creditable 3½ lengths fourth of 9 to Desert Quest in handicap (3/1) at this C&D 51 days ago, ideally needing stronger gallop.

8lb below last winning mark, but returns from five months off; market helpful.

17:30 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 12f Race Class Flow

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

A chance can be taken on BRISTOL HILL, who isn't quite in the same form as when landing the corresponding event off 1lb lower 12 months ago, but with Jack Mitchell back onboard, it would be no surprise were he to bounce back. Lawmans Blis defeated an in-form rival at Wolverhampton last time out so a subsequent 4lb rise looks more than fair, while Desert Quest, who hit the woodwork over track and trip 19 days ago, is also noted.

Making just his second start for this yard, LAWMANS BLIS did well to reel in one that was on a roll at Wolverhampton just under 2 weeks ago and remaining with some handicapping scope he can make light of a 4 lb rise and follow up. Easter Island got back on track in first-time cheekpieces here last month, so he may emerge as the main threat, with the selection's stablemate Lednikov and last year's winner Bristol Hill another couple to consider.

It may be worth chancing last year's winner BRISTOL HILL who disappointed last time, but the market suggested much better was expected.

18:00 Newcastle Stakes (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Kalpana won despite showing clear signs of immaturity on her debut and she must be respected under a penalty, especially with the prospect of more to come. However, the vote goes to Dubawi colt FIRST ALLIANCE, who was an unfortunate second (dead-heat) at Southwell in December. Karl Burke's charge was caught on heels that day, which meant Danny Tudhope was unable to ride out his mount given a clear run, and with the step up in trip likely to suit, he can make amends. Both Rogue Encore and Inisherin should not be underestimated either.

INISHERIN pulled clear of the rest when runner-up in what is traditionally a strong Newmarket maiden in September and looks the one to beat. Rogue Encore and First Alliance both showed plenty to work on when second at Kempton and Southwell respectively so are feared in what looks a decent novice.

The choice is INISHERIN who defied his 50-1 odds when just beaten in a big field on his Newmarket debut last September.

18:30 Newcastle Stakes (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Not the strongest of contests in which Billy McGarry, who defeated Brother Dave (second) over C&D last month, is likely to have his supporters. BROXI drops to this level for the first time, though, and with an excellent chance on these terms, he might be worth taking a chance on. Tathmeen has been running well in defeat of late and he is entitled to place claims once again.

BROTHER DAVE is on the up and shaped best when runner-up at Southwell last time, so he's worth a chance to open his account now. Last-time-out winner Billy McGarry is an obvious danger and Tathmeen is worthy of a mention back at a track where he's had the bulk of his success.

This can go to BILLY MCGARRY who was successful in a handicap over C&D 16 days ago with three of these behind.

19:00 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Likeashadow has proven to be a really consistent performer and has gone well off this mark on each of his last three outings, finishing third in all of them. However, the vote goes to SUNBLOCK, who was victorious on handicap bow at Wolverhampton last week and she now has a 6lb penalty to carry. George Boughey's filly is likely to have plenty more to offer and she could be the one to beat. Ocean Bliss can fight it out for the minor honours in a first-time visor, with Luke Morris booked.

SUNBLOCK justified market support to make a winning handicap bow in good style at Wolverhampton on debut for this yard on Saturday, showing much-improved form in the process, and should prove hard to beat under a penalty. Redondo only just failed to make it 2 from 2 in handicaps here last month and is an obvious threat, with Noble Consort another to consider having shaped very well third on his handicap debut over this C&D 6 weeks ago.

The vote goes to SUNBLOCK (nap) who did it well when making a successful stable/handicap debut at Wolverhampton on Saturday.

19:30 Newcastle Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

MORNING SUIT finished a close-up third at Lingfield in January and his mark has been left unchanged for that effort. Archie Watson's colt sports first-time cheekpieces which could eke out the improvement needed. Blue Virtue has to be considered on her handicap bow having shown promise on all three outings so far. Of the remainder, Daring Legend makes the most appeal on his return to the handicap ranks.

DARING LEGEND (due to be 2 lb higher in future) ran well on his first start for 6 months/debut for the Mick Appleby yard when a close-up third at Kempton on Saturday and, with the drop back to 6f expected to suit, he looks to hold solid claims with the possibility of more to come. Blue Virtue is high on the shortlist on handicap debut/returned to sprinting, with Influence another respected eased in class.

The selection is MORNING SUIT who ran well over 7f last time while shaping as if this return to 6f will be in his favour.

(9) Noble Captain 14/1, Shed maiden tag over C&D in January. 9/4, seventh of 8 in minor event at this course (5f) 16 days ago, ridden over 1f out and not quicken. Step back up in trip should help here.
Sole win in 17 starts came over C&D; 5f too sharp here last time; frame material.

(4) Captain Wentworth 9/2, Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. 6/4, good second of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f) 7 days ago, edged out only late on but clear of the remainder. Switch to this stiff 6f will hold no fears and interesting if the market speaks in his favour again. Visor on 1st time.
2lb well in, but 0-16 and best efforts so far have come at Chelmsford; visor on.

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

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

BLUE COLLAR LAD stole the race from the front at Wolverhampton on Saturday and Alice Haynes' gelding must hold every chance of following up, given he is 2lb well-in under a penalty. The well-handicapped Atlantic Heart is a big player from a draw on the nearside rail, while Bernie The Bear and Fantasy Navigator are others capable of a decent showing.

BLUE COLLAR LAD cemented the positive start made for his new yard when running out a convincing winner at Wolverhampton 5 days ago and turned out under a penalty, he looks to hold sound claims in his follow-up bid. Captain Wentworth only narrowly failed to justify strong support at Chelmsford himself recently and he's of firm interest dropping back to 6f. Bernie The Bear and Dream Together are another couple to note.

It may be worth siding with BERNIE THE BEAR whose record over C&D reads 123 and who is back off his last winning mark.

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

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

Retirement Beckons had four of these behind when he struck at odds of 50/1 in a similar race here last Friday and is obviously dangerous to underestimate now he has broken his duck on the all-weather. Ana Emaraaty was just a length-and-a-quarter second in that race, so enters calculations based on a literal reading of the form. However, EVA ROSIE has shown improvement since being tried in classified stakes and, with first-time blinkers added, this could be a good time to catch the lightly-raced filly.

COPPER MOUNTAIN has had excuses since winning a similar event at Southwell, including when fourth behind Retirement Beckons and Ana Emaraaty over this C&D on Friday, so is worth another chance. With Retirement Beckons penalised this time, Ana Emaraaty may emerge as the main threat.

Jim Goldie's 4yo ANA EMARAATY enjoys a 4lb pull in the weights with Retirement Beckons and can gain a deserved breakthrough victory

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.
