(6) Moralisa 18/1, Good third of 8 in handicap (13/2) at Yarmouth (7f, soft) 15 days ago. Return to shorter will suit and can give a good account.

(11) Written Broadcast 33/1, 3 wins from 16 runs this year. 8/1, below form eighth of 14 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f), merely passing beaten rivals. Off 115 days. Back down in trip.
Lacks recent match practice and isn't crying out for return to sprinting.

(10) Saisons D'Or 12/1, Course winner. Bit below form fifth of 11 in handicap at this course (7.1f, 9/1) 17 days ago. Back down in class and needs considering now 5 lb below last winning mark.
Raced mostly at 7f-1m but latest effort suggests the return to 6f may suit.

Not especially solid on novice form; opening mark is possibly beyond him.
LTO Selection:

16:02 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

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

CARIBBEAN SUNSET's latest effort at Thirsk was too bad to be true as the five-year-old's run of form prior to that display had been consistent. A winner over C&D in August, the five-year-old is taken to bounce back in a contest lacking much depth on paper. Kats Bob returns to a more realistic level following his run in the Bronze Cup at Ayr and is respected along with Moralisa.

SAISONS D'OR is worth a go at this trip off what is a tempting mark back down in class. South Dakota Sioux shaped better than the bare result over C&D 10 days ago and is next best ahead of Moralisa, who will be suited by the return to 6f.

A chance is taken on class-dropper PEMBROKESHIRE. Second choice is Caribbean Sunset.

0-8; none too consistent and risky in first-time visor (replacing cheekpieces).

(5) We Still Believe 7/1, Recorded a third success at this course when landing 10-runner handicap (10.2f, 4/1) 10 days ago, leading over 1f out and soon clear. Merits consideration under a penalty as he goes back up in trip.
Often runs here, clearcut winner (1m2f) last week; stamina to prove but can't be ruled out.

Well held in handicaps last two runs; cheekpieces added to tongue-strap; others preferred.

Rampant

12
12/1(-33%)
(8) Rampant 12/1, Runner-up here (10.2f) in August but below form both starts since, sixth of 7 in handicap at Hamilton (11.1f, good to soft, 18/1) 12 days ago. Needs to get back on track returned to this venue.
Repeat of short-head second over 1m2f here in August would put him firmly in the picture.
LTO Selection:

16:35 Newcastle Handicap (Class 5) 12f Race Class Flow

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

ARTISAN DANCER hasn't looked back since returning to the all-weather and made it a hat-trick of wins at Lingfield on his first attempt over 2m. The drop back in trip is unlikely to be an issue for Charlie Johnston's gelding in his attempt to continue this fine run of form, and he gets the vote ahead of We Still Believe, who carries a 5lb penalty for his latest victory here, and Kittykarma.

ARTISAN DANCER has been thriving of late, completing the hat-trick with the minimum of fuss at Lingfield last time, and he can add to his tally in his current form. Kittykarma could still have more to offer at this trip and is feared most, ahead of 3-time course winner We Still Believe.

Trainer has enjoyed 2yo success here lately; not ruled out on debut.
LTO Selection:

17:10 Newcastle Maiden (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

MANOS ARRIBA appreciated a step up in trip when progressing from his debut to finish second at Yarmouth, and Ed Dunlop's gelding makes plenty of appeal in his bid to go one better. Sir Gabrial is capable of being in the mix based on his first start when fourth at Ffos Las, while Flying Fletcher could have a say if repeating his Doncaster third rather than his latest performance at Ripon.

SIR GABRIAL did quite well to finish fourth starting out at Ffos Las 3 weeks ago given how green he was and with improvement forthcoming, he could be the answer. With Flying Fletcher very disappointing last time, Manos Arriba could be the chief threat, while any support for a newcomer should be noted, too.

(11) Panning For Gold 5/1, 4 wins from 7 runs this year. 7/1, career best when winning 12-runner handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 47 days ago. That form is proving strong so he's a player despite taking a 7 lb rise.

May be capable of progress back down in trip; solid promise over 1m at novice level.
LTO Selection:

17:45 Newcastle Handicap (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Representing the in-form Simon and Ed Crisford yard, TAJAWAL bounced back to form with a close-up third over C&D in July. A subsequent gelding operation may have unlocked some potential in the three-year-old and he is fancied to gain a second success of the season off only 1lb higher here. Colourful Dream was quite taking in her breakthrough success in a novice event at Southwell in March 2022 and is feared most on handicap/stable debut, despite a long absence. The progressive Panning For Gold also warrants respect.

PANNING FOR GOLD is enjoying an excellent season and fancied to bag a fifth win with the form of his latest Southwell success proving very strong. C&D winner Cusack is feared most despite being 2 lb out of the handicap, with in-form duo Theme Park and Tajawal in the mix too.

(8) Jewel Of Kabeir 7/1, Only out of the frame once this season, well suited by the emphasis on stamina when third of 12 in handicap at this C&D 4 days ago. Should go well again.
Maiden who has been largely consistent this term; ran creditably over C&D on Monday.
LTO Selection:

18:15 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Eleven Eleven is likely to prove popular after recently filling the runner-up spot over track and trip and the five-year-old must merit respect operating off the same mark. Nevertheless, JEWEL OF KABEIR makes slightly more appeal having finished third from an uncompromising position over C&D on Monday. Copper Mountain has been running into form of late and a further 1lb drop in the ratings also brings the daughter of Sir Percy into the equation.

ELEVEN ELEVEN was strong in the market and wasn't beaten too far when runner-up from this mark over C&D last week, so Jessica Macey's gelding is fancied to go one better. Spirit of Bowland landed a hat-trick in the spring and should be much closer to form after his recent return, so also makes appeal, with the consistent Jewel of Kabeir taken to round out the placings.

Ran well at Carlisle on final two starts for Gemma Tutty; could be in mix on stable debut.

(5) Camusdarach 20/1, Fair maiden who is struggling for form at present, again running poorly when 15 lengths second of 4 in maiden at Musselburgh (9f, good to firm) 38 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time.
The return to AW and the cheekpieces may help but he's been disappointing this year.
LTO Selection:

18:45 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Urban Road recently gained a second C&D triumph in good fashion and is likely to be in the mix once more. However, a 5lb penalty puts the Alan Brown-trained gelding on a career-high mark and it could be worth taking him on. SHAHNAZ ticks plenty of boxes on her stable debut for Daragh Bourke, who is enjoying a fine season, with this contest looking a good starting point. Time To Rumble is relatively unexposed on the all-weather and is another to note.

MY ROXANNE was below form here on her most recent outing, but she'd been steadily progressive prior to that and is worth another chance to get back on the up after a break. Urban Road notched win number 4 of the season over C&D 10 days ago and has to be respected under a penalty, with Time To Rumble another to consider having returned to form at Ayr a fortnight ago.

(5) Soowaih 8/1, Twice-raced maiden. 11/2, fifth of 9 in minor event at Thirsk (1m, soft) in June, not seen to best effect in making his effort away from favoured rail. Undergone wind surgery since and he's another likely to do better again for his good yard.

Gelded since modest debut in the spring; may do better.

35,000gns yearling; by Ribchester; likely best watched on debut.
LTO Selection:

19:15 Newcastle Stakes (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Carbis Bay sets the standard in this contest with a rating of 78 and he is expected to be in the mix, but the vote goes to newcomer DAYDREAM EXPRESS. The daughter of Kingman was a 300,000gns purchase and is related to some high-profile winners, so it would be no surprise to see her make a winning debut for her powerful connections. Any market confidence behind Beyond Words would also be of interest.

Not the easiest race to weigh up but newcomer DAYDREAM EXPRESS makes plenty of appeal and represents a top yard, so could be the way to go without the benefit of market clues. Carbis Bay back down in trip, and likely improvers Soowaih and Leading Lion are others to consider.

Nicely bred newcomer BEYOND WORDS gets the vote, ahead of Carbis Bay who has good claims back at Newcastle.

LTO Selection:

19:45 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Raffles Rebel has filled the runner-up spot the last twice in classified events at Wolverhampton and Southwell, so he has to be respected on his return to the handicap ranks. However, preference is for VAN ZANT, who hit the frame over C&D on his penultimate outing and was not seen to best effect in soft ground at Doncaster last time. The four-year-old returns to favourable conditions and can go in off the same mark. Explorers Way completes the shortlist.

The race that QAABIL finished third in at Dundalk last time was much stronger than this, so he's a confident choice to make a winning start. for a new stable. Explorers Way is likely to be back to form and Raffles Rebel is a player if tuned up on return from 8 months off.

Tony Coyle's new recruit QAABIL ran well in defeat at Dundalk last month and might be the answer to a weak race.

Hasn't shown much in recent starts and easy to look elsewhere.
LTO Selection:

20:15 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 (third) was behind Bella Kopella (winner) when taking a sizeable step forward on only his second handicap start to hit the frame at Beverley over this trip for the first time and he was kindly dropped 1lb for that effort. The three-year-old is 5lb better off at the weights this time around and has the potential to reverse that form. Lady Celia ran well when third over C&D last month and has to be considered off the same rating.

LADY CELIA lost little caste in defeat when third over C&D last time and she could be the answer. Next on the list is Elzaal, who won four times here earlier this year and is now 4 lb below his last winning mark. An on-song Motawaazy would be a danger to all and the consistent Another Angel won't be far away if ready to roll following a break.

The most solid profile belongs to LADY CELIA who has been consistent this year and arrives on the back of a C&D third last month.

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.
