Bollin Matilda

6.5
13/2(-8%)
(5) Bollin Matilda 13/2, Poor maiden hurdler who is up and down and 3m on this ground could stretch her.
Has shown some promise but needs something extra to get off the mark this afternoon.

Fainche

11/4(-38%)
(3) Fainche 11/4, Remains winless following 23 attempts but in good heart, third behind subsequent winners in similar conditions at Wetherby (3m) last time. This could be her day.
23-race maiden but has run well on her last three starts; a first win may well be imminent.

Fiveafterfour

7/2(+13%)
(2) Fiveafterfour 7/2, Made a winning handicap debut at Ayr in February. Not so good at Haydock last time but remains unexposed over this sort of trip.
6l handicap debut win in February; hasn't kicked on since but may do at some stage.

Perculator

(1) Perculator 7/2, Bumper winner who found some improvement for first-time cheekpieces when opening her hurdling account at Wetherby (3m) in January. Let down by jumping since, falling first at Ascot 3 weeks ago. Down in class.
Won in first-time cheekpieces at Wetherby in January but only fourth at Carlisle next time.

Young At Heart

(4) Young At Heart 3/1, Looks hard work, going in snatches again at Southwell last time. This longer trip could help.
Flashes tail and is 0-7, but this step up in trip may be a good move; one to consider.

80/1(-300%)
(6) Newmill Moll 80/1, No impact in bumper (subsequently sold from Denis Paul Murphy £5,500) and 3 starts over hurdles (off 9 months prior to latest). Up in trip for handicap debut and could only be of interest if subject of market support.
Has shown little over hurdles but perhaps the step up in trip will suit on handicap debut.

12:55 Newcastle Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 24f Race Class Flow

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

This contest might not take much winning, so a chance can be taken on BOLLIN MATILDA. Donald Whillans' mare is yet to taste victory in eight starts, but she produced a much better effort to finish sixth at Ayr last time and could go close off a 2lb lower rating. Fainche got up for third at Wetherby last month and she could get involved off a 1lb lower mark, while Fiveafterfour won't mind conditions and is another to note.

FAINCHE continues in good heart, chasing home a couple of subsequent winners at Wetherby last time, and she could finally open her account. Fiveafterfour might be the danger.

Having run well in defeat on her last three starts, this could be a good opportunity for FAINCHE to post an overdue first win.

Horn Cape

2
2/1(+0%)
(1) Horn Cape 2/1, Has thrived since returning to hurdles and resumed winning ways in 7-runner handicap over C&D in February. Found only the 145-rated Brentford Hope too good back here 4 weeks ago and nothing of that one's class in opposition now.
Two C&D wins this winter and bumped into well-handicapped winner over C&D last time.

Coniston George

(4) Coniston George 11/4, Has done well switched to hurdling, winning twice at up to 17f. Not seen to best effect in messy race at Ayr (20.4f) 5 weeks ago and remains with potential back in trip for handicap debut.
Two novice hurdle wins this term; only third last time but not ruled out on handicap debut.

(5) One More Stroke 9/4, Has made a promising start over hurdles, winning novices at Catterick in January and Carlisle (17f, always holding on having been left clear 2 out) in March. Open to further improvement from potentially lenient opening mark.
5yo who is 2-2 over hurdles; goes handicapping off fair mark and could continue to improve.

From The Clouds

9/2(-64%)
(2) From The Clouds 9/2, Has made a good start over hurdles, winning maiden and novice over C&D the last twice, making all 4 weeks ago. Can do better again now handicapping.
Has won over C&D on heavy the last twice and brings plenty of potential to handicap debut.

Pulled up in two point-to-points last month and has plenty to prove.

13:30 Newcastle Handicap Hurdle (Class 3) 17f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

From The Clouds and One More Stroke come into this on the back of securing doubles, so they boast appealing profiles on their handicap debuts, with slight preference for the former. However, they could both be up against it to deny HORN CAPE, who produced another good display to finish second to a subsequent winner in this grade over C&D last month and a 2lb rise may not be enough to prevent him from going one better.

ONE MORE STROKE can go on improving now handicapping and the hat-trick could be on the cards. Dual C&D winner From The Clouds has a similar profile and looks set for another big run along with the more exposed but in-form Horn Cape.

Topweight HORN CAPE faces some unexposed novices in an interesting little race but has been progressive over C&D and can win once more.

1st (3) Choosethenews (5/4 +44%)
Choosethenews

1.25
5/4(+44%)
(3) Choosethenews 5/4, Point winner who looked a useful prospect sent hurdling when making all at Ayr in December 2022. Shaped as if retaining ability in face of stiff task when behind Giovinco on return/chase debut over C&D and similar form when third at Carlisle. More to come.
Good third at Carlisle on second chase start and form has worked out extremely well.

8/1(+0%)
(1) Pay The Piper 8/1, Useful winning chaser who has been given a chance by the handicapper after a rather quiet campaign. Not the stoutest of finishers these days though, fading over hurdles in the mud here 3 weeks ago.
Continues to drop down the weights but for good reason; needs to get back on track.
6
3rd (6) Cornerstone Lad (10/1 -11%)
Cornerstone Lad

10
10/1(-11%)
(6) Cornerstone Lad 10/1, Strike rate over fences not great and he was last of 3 at Carlisle a fortnight ago. This looks tough back up in trip.
Showed some spark here in February but this regressive 10yo has failed to build on it.
2
4th (2) Gardener (13/2 -63%)
Gardener

6.5
13/2(-63%)
(2) Gardener 13/2, Has taken well to chasing for new trainer Olly Murphy, winning last 2 starts when completing (2m handicaps at Southwell and Carlisle). Couldn't get to the front and produced an error-strewn round of jumping at Ayr 7 weeks ago. First-time headgear, and stamina to prove up in trip.
Pulled up last time but the cheekpieces could help his jumping and he retains potential.
5
|PU| (5) High Moon (11/4 +0%)
High Moon

2.75
11/4(+0%)
(5) High Moon 11/4, Scored in this race last year and back in top form, beaten only by a most progressive one at Ayr in first-time cheekpieces 5 weeks ago. Big shout with a repeat.
Won this last year off 1lb higher and returned to form when second at Ayr last month.
4

Brayhill

12
12/1(-50%)
(4) Brayhill 12/1, Low-mileage 9-y-o who, following another wind op, made light of a 12-month absence to score over C&D on return. Disappointing twice since, though.
Won over C&D in December but soundly beaten here the last twice.

14:05 Newcastle Handicap Chase (Class 3) 20f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

Choosethenews was beaten four lengths into third at Carlisle and, with Brian Hughes booked, he could get into contention off a 1lb lower rating. However, PAY THE PIPER lurks on an appealing mark as he switches back to this sphere after his well-beaten third over the smaller obstacles here. Ann Hamilton's nine-year-old should have no problem with testing conditions and he looks the way to go. High Moon showed improvement in first-time cheekpieces to finish second at Ayr and he can also go well.

CHOOSETHENEWS has more to offer over fences and is narrowly preferred to last year's winner High Moon, who returned to form in first-time cheekpieces at Ayr 5 weeks ago.

Last year's winner HIGH MOON (nap) turns up on a 1lb lower mark this time around and returned to form when second at Ayr last month.

Beneficially Yours

0.071429
1/14(+46%)
(1) Beneficially Yours 1/14, £80,000 purchase after winning his only start in Irish points and built on promising hurdle debut third when scoring over C&D last month. This looks an excellent opportunity for him to follow up.
1-1 in points; easily justified favouritism over C&D last month; should prove hard to beat.

Little show in bumpers but some encouragement on hurdling debut at Carlisle; may do better.

Modest maiden over hurdles in 2022-23; point winner since; should run some sort of race.

14:40 Newcastle Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow

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

BENEFICIALLY YOURS was found an excellent opportunity to get off the mark when scoring over C&D last month. He appeared to relish the heavy conditions on that occasion and this appears to be an even easier task on paper, despite his penalty. Something Golden shouldn't be lacking for fitness having raced in point-to-points recently, while Charizord appears best of the remainder.

This should be plain sailing for last month's C&D winner BENEFICIALLY YOURS. Charizord showed a bit on his recent hurdle debut and is preferred to Something Golden for the forecast spot.

Despite having to concede weight all round, BENEFICIALLY YOURS looks by far the likeliest winner, having scooted up over C&D last time.

Call Me Jack

2.75
11/4(+0%)
(10) Call Me Jack 11/4, Improved in handicaps, winning over 2m at Southwell in February and going in again over C&D last month. A further 7 lb rise is unlikely to prevent him making another bold bid.
Up 7lb for C&D win; likely to need a career best to follow up but that is not ruled out..

Pulled up at Hexham since third at Sedgefield (2m4f, soft); bit to prove..

Placed over hurdles; much to prove after wind surgery, based on his last three starts..

(14) Not Now Tayto 28/1, Made frame both starts in Irish points. Yet to better poor form over hurdles (remote third on 2m recent course handicap debut) but he might benefit from the longer trip this afternoon.
Step up in trip looks a positive but could do with improvement in the jumping department..

15:25 Newcastle Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 20f Race Class Flow

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

CALL ME JACK arrives boasting a progressive profile having won two of his last three starts. The latest success came over C&D when improving for the step up in trip and the five-year-old is capable of taking further steps forward. Glory Hights has been consistent since beginning life in handicap company and is expected to be in the mix again. Others to note are Atomic Angel and Adveram.

ATOMIC ANGEL has bounced back to form when placed twice at Hexham lately and can resume winning ways. Call Me Jack made it 2-3 in handicaps over C&D last month and is second choice ahead of Glory Heights, who has been runner-up here 3 times this year.

The suggestion is I DOUBT THAT whose Flat stamina suggests this new trip will suit.

16:30 Newcastle Handicap Chase (Class 5) 20f Race Class Flow

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

SIX ONE NINE failed to fire at Sedgefield a month ago, but the nine-year-old can be given another chance based on his two victories over an extended 2m here prior to that defeat. Rollerruler showed more when stepped up to this trip at Hexham last time and he could prove to be the main threat to the selection, ahead of Poetry Man and Nights In Venice.

NIGHTS IN VENICE simply didn't get home faced with the stiff finish at Hexham on his latest start and he is appealing off a mark just 2 lb above that off which he was successful at Ayr in February. Rollerruler has been given a chance by the handicapper and, with a stamina question mark hanging over Six One Nine, he is feared most.

Preference is for POETRY MAN, who showed promise in these cheekpieces here recently. Six One Nine is a danger if staying the trip.

17:05 Newcastle NH Flat Race (Class 5) 17f Race Class Flow

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

BATTLE BORN LAD displayed plenty of promise when filling third place on his racecourse bow over C&D last month and the Mark Walford-trained five-year-old could be hard to beat with the benefit of that experience. Gentleman Bill beat Traveling Soldier in an Irish point-to-point in December and they have to be of interest on their Rules debuts, while Tees Comp's Clive is another to consider.

TRAVELING SOLDIER produced a promising effort when runner-up in a point and has since joined a yard that does well in this discipline, so a chance is taken on him to get the better of Battle Born Lad, who is clear pick of those with bumper experience. Gentleman Bill is another one to consider.

None can be ruled out, but preference is for BATTLE BORN LAD who showed he could handle testing ground when third here last month.

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.

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.
