12:25 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

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

OSCAR DOODLE has been a model of consistency over the past few months and the four-year-old, who went close once again over C&D last time, gets the vote to go one better. Jewel Maker scored here earlier in the month and has to be respected off just 2lb higher. Dancing Gypsy, Lochnaver and Freddy Robinson are others capable of a decent showing.

Having travelled as if well up to defying this sort of mark when runner-up on Wednesday, LOCHNAVER gets the nod to go one better at the expense of Dancing Gypsy, who shaped encouragingly on his first outing for a new yard returning from 4 months off at Wolverhampton earlier this week and could well build on that effort. Oscar Doodle and recent C&D winner Jewel Maker can fight out minor honours.

The admirably consistent OSCAR DOODLE has gone close over C&D the last twice and can go one better. Freddy Robinson is a danger.

12:55 Newcastle Maiden (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

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

John and Thady Gosden are no strangers to running their better prospects here as juveniles and LAUTREC makes plenty of appeal on paper. A 600,000gns purchase at Tattersalls Book 1, the half-brother to Classic heroes St Mark's Basilica and Magna Grecia gets the vote to make a winning start to his career. Temple City is expected to have benefited from his debut experience at Newmarket, while Bur Dubai completes the shortlist based on his third at Chelmsford.

TEMPLE CITY is a well-bred colt and he showed plenty to be positive about when third at Newmarket on debut, so is fancied to get off the mark at the second attempt, though the Gosden newcomer Lautrec, who could barely possess a stronger pedigree, could prove a real fly in the ointment. Bur Dubai also looked a nice prospect when a close third at Chelmsford on debut and adds further substance to a decent field.

John and Thady Gosden's Kingman newcomer LAUTREC has much to recommend him on pedigree and is taken to go in at the first time of asking

13:28 Newcastle Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

LIKEASHADOW has been a revelation since being ridden with a lot more restraint, winning his last two starts here, and Alan Brown's gelding could have more to offer, despite a 5lb rise for the latest success. Fly Pass ran on well to finish third at Lingfield and is open to improvement over this distance, while a more positive ride may benefit Made In China.

LIKEASHDOW arrives here on a roll, winning a brace a of course handicaps, latterly when pulling clear with an unexposed one a fortnight ago. A 5 lb rise is unlikely to prevent a very bold hat-trick bid, with Alfred and Fly Pass feared most.

The manner of LIKEASHADOW (nap)'s C&D success suggests that he can defy a 5lb rise and complete a hat-trick.

14:00 Newcastle Stakes (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

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

Neapolitan may have been turned over at odds-on at Chelmsford, but he went down fighting and might be happier back at 6f. However, the vote is for LOU LOU'S GIFT. The half-sister to the classy Mighty Ulysses confirmed the promise of her Yarmouth debut third when going one better here and she can continue her forward momentum. Front Gunner caught the eye on his introduction and he is another to consider.

LOU LOU'S GIFT progressed from her debut when runner-up at this C&D 17 days ago, despite still looking in need of the experience, so she can do better still with a hood/tongue strap now applied. William Haggas' filly is taken to see off the challenge of Neapolitan, who also improved in defeat last time, with Callianassa completing the shortlist.

Given the promise she's shown and in the hope that headgear helps her to settle, LOU LOU'S GIFT is the suggestion.

14:38 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

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

Bella Kopella dug deep to prevail over 7f here and the drop in trip shouldn't be a problem, while Rainbow Rain's hat-trick bid may have ended in failure over C&D but he must not be written off yet. The same can be said for EL HIBRI, who has let favourite backers down the last twice but fluffed the start and got blocked for a run at Chelmsford, so is worth one more chance.

C&D scorer LADY CELIA didn't enjoy the rub of the green when sixth here last time so is fancied to quickly regain winning ways off an unchanged mark. Rainbow Rain is weighted to have a big say and next on the list, with Athollblair Boy and El Hibri also in the mix in an open handicap.

A standing dish here, ATHOLLBLAIR BOY has returned to his last winning mark and may be able to record a tenth course success.

15:14 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

TOP GUN TINA posted arguably her best effort to date when runner-up over a mile here latest and the return to 7f looks ideal. David Thompson's inmate is fancied to get the better of last-time-out C&D winner Keep Me Stable, who is aiming to defy a 5lb penalty on this quick turnaround. Fellow in-form rivals Possible Ambition and Key Look are others to consider.

TOP GUN TINA was having only her second handicap start when an improved second over 1m here last time and is taken to build on that promise and can strike under Billy Loughnane. Recent C&D scorer Key Look retains handicapping scope after a 4 lb rise and is second choice ahead of Possible Ambition, who is more consistent than most at this level.

Preference is for KEY LOOK who got back to winning ways over C&D when back with Geoff Harker and remains handily weighted.

15:45 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Last month's Ayr winner BANNER ROAD has proved a progressive sort on the Flat under the tutelage of Jim Goldie this season and a change of scenery may bring about enough improvement to defy an 8lb rise in the ratings. Whatwouldyouknow posted one of his better efforts when runner-up over C&D recently and should give another bold account. Clotherholme completes the shortlist.

BANNER ROAD signed off for Jim Goldie with a comfortable success at Ayr and she's fancied to make a winning start for her new yard at the possible expense of Concert Boy, who is visored for the first time. Whatwouldyouknow should also be on the premises.

Nigel Tinkler's dual C&D scorer WHATWOULDYOUKNOW signalled he's ready to strike again when runner-up here last time out.

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.
