11:27 Lingfield Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

ASHFORD HILL defied market expectation when making a winning stable debut over C&D a fortnight ago. A 2lb rise in the ratings looks more than workable and a brace could be on the cards for the three-year-old. Under Curfew arrives on the back of a staying-on second over 5f at Wolverhampton and Tony Carroll's gelding is feared most back up in trip. Edergole's Gift, Just Ten High and My Boy Jack are others to consider.

MR TRICK would have finished closer with a clear run at Newcastle and given the mark he's dropped to these days, he looks very interesting now he's back in reasonable nick. Ashford Hill caused a huge surprise over C&D but there didn't look to be any fluke about it so she's a threat, along with Just Ten High from his inside stall.

Just Ten High and Ashford Hill are strongly respected but MR TRICK was unlucky at Newcastle and looks ready to strike.

Likely better than we've seen so far but the drop to a fast 5f asks a new question of him.

11:57 Lingfield Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

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

The application of a first-time visor saw an improved performance from Mister Coco Fizz when finishing a close-up second at Wolverhampton 10 days ago. A 1lb higher rating is unlikely to prevent another bold bid, but last month's Chelmsford scorer NATSUMI shades the verdict. The daughter of Kameko proved a different proposition on her nursery bow and she looks capable of beating Startling once more.

NATSUMI and Startling dominated a Chelmsford nursery 3 weeks ago and the pair may come to the fore again, with the former taken to uphold the form given she's totally unexposed over 5f. Of the rest, Mister Coco Fizz reacted well to a visor last time so he needs considering.

This looks good for NATSUMI (nap), who won with more authority than the winning margin suggests on last month's nursery debut.

12:05 Clonmel Maiden Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

GIANT HAYSTACKS has strong claims. Beaten 26 lengths in a Grade 3 contest on career debut last December, he has shown nice ability in recent months and having run well in a good point-to-point in October, finished nicely in a big-field handicap at Navan last month and a reproduction would give him every chance. Polly Poppins was leading but being challenged when falling at Tramore in October but has place claims while Mellem was well beaten in recent maidens hurdles but ran well in a bumper last September.

This is a good opportunity for GIANT HAYSTACKS to get off the mark. Indeed, he shaped well starting out for this yard in a big-field Navan handicap 16 days ago and a reproduction of that would make him hard to beat. Polly Poppins was in the process of running a big race when exiting at the second-last in a Tramore maiden last time and she will likely emerge as the main danger granted a clear round this time. Glenmalure Flyer is best of the rest.

This is a good opportunity for GIANT HAYSTACKS who coped well in handicap company when fourth in a 23-runner contest at Navan

12:15 Southwell Handicap Chase (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow

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

THEFORMISMIGHTY made a promising start to his chasing career with a respectable fourth-placed finish over the extended 2m3f at Chepstow in October and could find the addition of cheekpieces unlocks another gear, with the additional yardage also a likely source of improvement. Awaythelad and Yes Day both have similar profiles to the selection and also need serious consideration. Sainte Doctor holds a solid each-way chance.

Ben Pauling's AWAYTHELAD made a promising start over fences when a recent third at Lingfield and with that form working out well he looks the way to go. Both Theformismighty and Yes Day have better days ahead of them too and can have a say, while chasing newcomers Jaramillo and Kaituna River also bring potential in this intriguing handicap.

Theformismighty should be winning over fences soon but YES DAY also made a good impression on his chase debut and is preferred.

12:27 Lingfield Maiden (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

MARHABA GHAIYYATH offered plenty of encouragement when posting a close-up second on his racecourse debut at Wolverhampton 17 days ago. Charlie Johnston's inmate should have learned plenty from that opening bid and he gets a confident vote. Circus Of Rome may serve the most resistance to the selection after finishing a respectable sixth on his introduction over C&D last month, ahead of Minelone.

MARHABA GHAIYYATH's debut was chock-full of promise, likely to have won had he not been forced to come from so far back and with above-average improvement anticipated, he'll take some stopping. Circus of Rome is the danger unless a newcomer is above-average.

Minelone can go well now upped in trip but CIRCUS OF ROME is taken to leave his promising C&D debut behind him.

12:35 Clonmel Handicap Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

MAYOS VENDANGEUR is progressive and ran well in a better handicap last month. Her initial form was ordinary but has shown consistent ability in recent months with the form of her recent Limerick run being nicely boosted by the fifth-placed horse winning subsequently. Four-time Flat winner San Aer has frustrated in his hurdling career todate, with National Hunt distances possibly stretching him, but ran well in a similar race last month. Rated 86 when finishing sixth in the Lincoln in March, he likes testing ground so should be better suited by today's ground than at Thurles. Aboy Joey has shown nice ability in similar handicaps and has place claims.

This looks wide open and a chance is taken on ABOY JOEY, who stepped up on his reappearance effort when fourth of 11 at Wexford and he is appealing off the same mark here. C&D winner Marlpark will be a danger to all if he puts his best foot forward, while Job Well Done is one to note in the betting on her handicap debut and Mayos Vendangeur is an each-way player.

Coming back to 2m might see ON YOUR WAY in a better light, having been well below his best maiden form over 2m4f last time

12:45 Southwell Handicap Chase (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

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

Last-time-out winners NEIGH BOTHA and Haafback are suggested as the pair to focus on. Although a surprise winner on the day, the latter won with something in hand at Ludlow on his chasing debut and must rate a player off just 1lb higher. Nevertheless, the former has a stronger overall profile and could be up to giving weight away all round with his proven liking for this venue a big plus. Ben Buie and Havock complete the shortlist.

EXTRAORDINARY MAN teed himself up well for this when an encouraging reappearance fourth at Hereford and can capitalise on a lenient mark. Neigh Botha could emerge as the main danger on the back of his recent C&D success, with Ludlow victor Haafback also in the mix.

After a fair run last time EXTRAORDINARY MAN can win his second race over fences on his second run since wind surgery.

HAMDANI CRUISER posted a much better effort when upped to 1m1f at Wolverhampton. A respectable fourth on that occasion, James Horton's inmate looks to have more to offer and may prove the one to side with. Timeless Spirit caught the eye finishing with a late flourish to take second at Southwell on her racecourse debut, though has been done no favours drawn wide once again. Hush Puppy is related to several winners on the all-weather and is a newcomer to note.

TIMELESS SPIRIT showed plenty to work on despite being sent off at huge odds when second at Southwell and can put that experience to good use up against likely-looking newcomers Kolo and Crack On Boys.

Timeless Spirit sets the standard but it's not daunting. HAMDANI CRUISER has more to offer and he's tentatively preferred.

13:05 Clonmel Conditions Hurdle 24f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

SANDOR CLEGANE is closely matched with Three Card Brag on their previous meetings but is slightly less reliant on testing ground conditions than that rival. The selection finished third, and ahead of Three Card Brag, in Cheltenham's 2023 Albert Bartlett and while the score between the pair is 2-2 following four prior meetings, Sandor Clegane might hold a small edge, with each horse reverting from fences on season reappearance. Recent course-and-distance winner Plains Indian faces a tougher task today and would prefer good ground while Franciscan Rock won a recent Punchestown handicap but also steps up in grade. Recent chase winner Drumgill concedes plenty weight.

THREE CARD BRAG is capable fresh and gets the nod to make a successful return back over hurdles. Sandor Clegane is an obvious threat having done well as a novice hurdler in 2022/23, with recent Punchestown scorer Franciscan Rock also feared.

The 2023 Albert Bartlett third SANDOR CLEGANE is slightly preferred to Three Card Brag, old rivals at this stage.

13:15 Southwell NH Flat Race (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

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

BERKENSHTAAAP was purchased for 45,000 pounds after winning an Irish point in May and Olly Murphy's gelding merits the utmost respect on his Rules debut. Star Artist was not disgraced when filling fourth place on his racecourse bow in a Huntingdon bumper earlier in the year and he should not be discounted. Others to note are Hestina Hill and Dramatic Encore.

There's a few interesting sorts among the Rules newcomers, none more so than Dan Skelton's HESTINA HILL, who gets the nod before any market clues are known. Irish point recruits Berkenshtaaap and Dramatic Encore are other likely types for whom the betting should be informative, while Star Artist looks pick of those with experience.

Berkenshtaaap is an interesting recruit but STAR ARTIST made a good start to his career in the spring and should come on plenty.

13:27 Lingfield Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

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

Global Resolve finished clear of the rest when runner-up at Chelmsford in a first-time visor. The headgear remains in place and he can feature once again, but SEMSER is taken to resume winning ways. Sent off favourite at Chelmsford in October, the seven-year-old failed to get a clear run when beaten only a neck and can make amends by landing this contest. Harlington won over 1m4f at Wolverhampton last time and can go well too.

FORGE VALLEY LAD wasn't seen to best effect over C&D last time and is well enough weighted to go close. Harlington and Global Resolve head the dangers.

Rossa Ryan is back on board Sunset In Paris but their unbeaten partnership may meet its match in the shape of GLOBAL RESOLVE.

13:35 Clonmel Maiden Hurdle 19f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

C'EST TA CHANCE showed smart ability in his bumper debut last January and has winning point-to-point experience. Narrowly defeated by a subsequently Grade 1-placed winner in that Naas race, he was subsequently well held in the Cheltenham Bumper and disappointed at Ayr in April but contests a winnable maiden today, stepping up in distance. Stablemate Jump Allen defeated a subsequent dual hurdle winner when scoring on debut at Killarney but should struggle to concede 8lb to the selection. Harry's Dream ran well at Gowran while point-to-point winner Onlymammycanloveme wears a tongue-tie on reappearance. Recent withdrawal Whatsanotheryear has been waiting such a long time for suitable ground, which until now wasn't available.

Willie Mullins holds the aces here but separating JUMP ALLEN and C'est Ta Chance isn't easy. The latter achieved slightly more in bumpers but the former had just the one run and was pretty impressive when winning at Killarney, so he shades the vote. Of the rest, point-winner Onlymammycanloveme is of some interest.

It looks significant that Patrick Mullins rides C'EST TA CHANCE in preference to his penalised stablemate Jump Allen.

13:45 Southwell Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

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

Le Fauve was highly tried as a juvenile but was slightly disappointing when a well-held third on his return at Chepstow in October. A subsequent wind operation may help his chances here, but preference is for JORDANS CROSS. The son of Berkshire won between the flags and filled second place on his Rules debut in a Chepstow bumper. With the benefit of that experience, he could be hard to stop. Law Of The Sea is another with valid form claims.

Having won an Irish point, JORDANS CROSS showed plenty to work on when second in a Chepstow bumper a month ago and he's the most appealing option now hurdling. Le Fauve is a huge threat on the pick of last season's form, with Law of The Sea the type to go on improving over obstacles.

Preference is for Irish point winner JORDANS CROSS, who began his rules career with a good second in a Chepstow bumper last month.

13:57 Lingfield Handicap (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

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

HAT TOSS opened his account on the all-weather with a victory Chelmsford last month. An apprentice's allowance negates a 2lb rise and there looks more to come from James Owen's charge on this surface. Pjanoo (third) was beaten lees than a length behind the selection and can have a say in the outcome, while Newsreader has won three times over 7f at Kempton and looks worth another try over 1m.

This looks competitive, with several appealing candidates to choose from. RIOT could be the answer having again left the impression that his turn is near when a close third at Chelmsford. The 7-y-o remains 2 lb below his last winning mark and the return to a mile looks a good move. Bravo Zulu has been given a chance by the handicapper and is of interest tried in blinkers for his new yard, while there wasn't much to choose between Hat Toss and Pjanoo last time and they should both be in the mix.

Newsreader and Hat Toss are much respected but BRAVO ZULU starts out for a new yard off a reduced mark and blinkers could help.

14:05 Clonmel Maiden Hurdle 19f (Se Speed Six) Race Speed Rating Flow

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

KARAFON looks the pick of the Willie Mullins runners on jockey bookings and was the subject of a favourable report from the trainer in a stable tour. The fact that this French import started his Irish career off with a fifth place in a Grade 2 juvenile hurdle at Leopardstown last Christmas shows the regard he is held in. Lady Rose Hackett is going the right way in three runs for Henry de Bromhead and a first-time hood is tried on her. Karamoja is another Mullins representative and this Masked Marvel filly ought to make an impact, while Sheer Raz is well worth a market check on track debut for Gavin Cromwell. Mullins' Funiculi Funicula lurks among the reserves and would be a contender if getting a run.

KARAFON was an excellent fifth starting out for this yard when stepped up to Grade 2 level at Leopardstown when last seen on Boxing Day and shades the vote over his new stablemate Karamoja, who showed plenty of ability in France. Lady Rose Hackett should be in the mix again.

KARAFON(nap) can take this if repeating the form of his Leopardstown Grade 2 fifth place when last seen.

14:15 Southwell Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

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

DISGUISEDLIMIT may have been well held when filling third place on his Rules debut at Chepstow last month, but that was a competitive event and the former point-to-point winner should be capable of going well in this company. Daytime Dreaming may prove to be the main threat following his encouraging effort at Uttoxeter in October, while any market support for Bank On Frank would have to be noted.

DAYTIME DREAMING's hurdling debut form is working out well and this looks a winnable maiden for him. Most Wanted was too fresh on his belated comeback/hurdling debut at Kempton but he was fairly useful on the Flat for his previous yard so isn't taken lightly with that run under his belt, with newcomer Bank On Frank another to note.

Disguisedlimit can improve if more relaxed this time but a safer option is DAYTIME DREAMING, who shaped well on his hurdling debut.

14:27 Lingfield Handicap (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

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

A C&D winner around this time last year, WESTERN STARS is still on a winning mark and has nothing to fear from stepping back up in trip after going in over 1m6f at Wolverhampton last month. He gets the vote over Corsican Caper, who is another with a solid chance back on the all-weather. Poncho still has plenty of scope for improvement on the Flat and is also respected.

WESTERN STARS resumed winning ways with a bit in hand at Wolverhampton last month so must hold every chance off 2 lb higher. C'mon Kenny only just failed when back to form at Kempton so is next best ahead of Le Rouge Chinois.

A competitive race in which the vote goes to C'MON KENNY, who got back on track with a near-miss at Kempton in October.

14:35 Clonmel Handicap Hurdle 19f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

There was a lot to like about ARDFERT MARY's runner-up spot over a similar trip in Gowran Park last month. John Ryan's mare came home well after the third-last hurdle and was clear of the remainder. Philip Rothwell and Tiernan Power Roche have been plundering plenty of winners and Duffys Hodey is another leading contender. This seven-year-old gelding ran his best race to date when getting up for second over a shorter trip in Tipperary. Ryan also has Love Like This who posted a runner-up berth in a higher grade at Thurles which reads well in the context of this race. This trip shouldn't inconvenience her.

RESTLESS SON shaped well on his recent Limerick reappearance and is given a chance to build on that promise with this longer trip likely to suit. Ardfert Mary, Duffys Hodey and Love Like all arrive on the back of good runner-up efforts and head the dangers.

Philip Rothwell's run of form may continue courtesy of DUFFYS HODEY who made a fine start to the season when second at Tipperary.

(6) Mr Hope Street 1/1, Progressive in handicaps over 2½m, winning twice in the spring and clear with another improver when second back from a 5-month break at Carlisle in October. Leading claims now stepping up to 3m for the first time.
Has done well in 2m4f handicaps; should stay this sharp 3m and give it a good shot.

Progressive stayer; eased away at Kempton (3m) to make it 3-4 for this yard; penalised.

Consistent without progressing in staying handicaps of late; probably needs extra push.

14:45 Southwell Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 24f Race Class Flow

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

The progressive Craven Bay regained the winning thread when drawing clear of his rivals at Kempton eight days ago. However, a 7lb penalty and quick turnaround may be enough to weigh him down and MR HOPE STREET makes slightly more appeal up in distance. The son of Jet Away arrives on the back of a solid second and this first attempt over 3m may see him back in the winner's enclosure. Space Voyage may fare best of the remainder.

MR HOPE STREET is taken to continue his improvement now moving up to 3m for the first time. Toonagh Warrior is another stepping up in distance and will be a threat if his stamina holds. Craven Bay isn't obviously well treated under a 7 lb penalty but should also have a part to play in his current vein of form.

Craven Bay and Mr Hope Street are respected but BURROWS HALL is preferred from the bottom of the weights.

14:54 Newcastle Handicap (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

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

PRINCE ACHILLE returned to winning ways over C&D 10 days ago and the five-year-old has to be of interest off just a 3lb higher mark here. That said, Percy Willis is an obvious threat after dead-heating for the win over 1m4f at Wolverhampton last time, while Falcon Nine edges out Orbital and Urban Road to be the pick of the remainder.

Perhaps PRINCE ACHILLE can defy the handicapper and land another C&D win. Orbital has a pretty solid overall AW record and is second choice ahead of Falcon Nine and the selection's stablemate Percy Willis.

The Prescott-trained ORBITAL had excuses for her last two defeats and still looks well handicapped. Prince Achille is next best.

15:00 Lingfield Handicap (Class 4) 10f Race Class Flow

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

SANTORINI STAR, who was runner-up to a useful prospect on her debut at Southwell in October, showed she learned from the experience when getting off the mark with a power-packed finish over 1m at Kempton last month. With the likelihood of more to come over this longer trip, she gets the vote with an opening handicap mark of 77 deemed workable. Fellow last-time-out winners Obsidian Knight and Epsom Faithfull are other strong contenders.

PASHA and Timetobenice both caught the eye last time out and, despite the presence of two unexposed types from top yards in Santorini Star and Hebridean Nomad, they could be the pair to concentrate on. Pasha is marginally preferred having shaped well all things considered upped to this trip on her all-weather debut here a fortnight ago. Santorini Star got the better of an odds-on Godolphin filly in a 4-runner Kempton novice last month and she is third choice.

This is competitive but the most striking contenders are the twice-raced handicap newcomers Hebridean Nomad and SANTORINI STAR.

15:05 Clonmel Handicap Chase 18f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

CHEERFUL CHAP has been off since May, but has gone well fresh before. He was in good form in the first half of the year as he clocked up victories over flights at Naas and Ballinrobe. He was also placed in Cork, and when last seen over fences at Tramore. One Last Tango was decent over hurdles and has been learning his trade in a couple of beginners chases at Galway and in a rated novice chase in Naas. Similar sentiments apply to Lazer Wolf, who won over flights at Limerick in March, as he is very much unexposed over fences. Stablemates Mighty Oak Lad and Danny The Fence will have their backers in addition to Ishan.

LAZER WOLF looks ready to take a step forward now he goes into handicaps so gets the vote in this very open event. Kilashee wasn't seen to best effect when last at Fairyhouse only two days ago and appeals as the sort to bounce back. Both Ishan and Mighty Oak Lad return from absences but have more to offer and warrant plenty of respect.

ONE LAST TANGO and Lazer Wolf are of interest after showing glimpses in beginners' chases, with preference for the former.

(3) Glimpse Of Glory 7/2, Shaped with promise when placed in a couple of juvenile events during the spring, following which he was a good second to a progressive type on handicap debut at Southwell (15.8f, soft) in June. Has failed to build on that in 2 subsequent starts but it's still early days for this 4-y-o. Considered.
Placed in 2 juvenile events and 2nd on h'cap debut but not at his best last twice.

Let's Sail Away

(1) Let's Sail Away 6/1, Winner of sole start between the flags last December. Best effort of his 3 under Rules so far was when fourth of 13 in a Uttoxeter maiden (15.7f, heavy) but not so good either side of that and his attitude doesn't appear to be all it could be. Step forward needed on this handicap bow.

Failed to build on that at Warwick (2m, good) next time but eased 2 lb since and perhaps worth another chance now that she steps back up in trip.

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

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

Kingoftheswingerz offered a lot more encouragement when second on his seasonal debut at Ffos Las last month and a 1lb rise shouldn't prevent another good account. That said, there are some interesting handicap debutants that may have his measure in point-to-point winner Let's Sail Away and SKIFFLE MAN, with marginal preference for the latter. The Dan Skelton-trained gelding is a full-brother to the useful stayer Tim Pat and this step up in distance could pay dividends.

It's likely that SKIFFLE MAN will leave his low-key novice efforts well behind now faced with a stiffer test and sent handicapping off an opening mark that probably underestimates him. The hint should be taken if the market speaks in his favour. While Aquitaine Boy probably would've finished second had the eventual runner-up not hit the final flight here in May, it was a much-improved effort whichever way you look at it and he is next best ahead of Glimpse of Glory and Pacific.

The lightly raced AQUITAINE BOY (nap) is taken to win his second race here with the step up to 2m4f expected to suit him.

15:24 Newcastle Stakes (Class 4) 12f Race Class Flow

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

Lasting Love arrives here with strong form claims but she has had plenty of chances already, while similar comments apply to Steel Tiger. With that in mind, preference is for FIREBLADE, who finished second in a pair of competitive turf events in October and the first-time application of blinkers can see the son of Frankel go one better here. Roland Garros showed some promise on his racecourse bow in April and is another to note.

Although ROLAND GARROS has been off since his debut in April that was a promising effort and he's taken to improve past his stablemate Fireblade. Steel Tiger and Lasting Love are starting to look exposed but have the form to be bang there.

The Gosden-trained FIREBLADE appears to have an ideal opportunity to get off the mark. Lasting Love is second choice.

15:30 Lingfield Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

With the speedy Lihou and Bluebells Boy drawn handily on the inside, this is likely to be run at a strong tempo. While those two are highly respected, that scenario could play straight into the hands of HIERARCHY, who has proven to be at his best when he has something to aim at and could have the race teed up nicely here. Southwell 5f winner One More Wave also needs a betting check.

The return to this trip will suit ONE MORE WAVE, who got on top in the shadow of the post when landing a 5f Southwell handicap last time and a 4 lb rise looks manageable. Four Adaay didn't do much wrong when fifth at Wolverhampton recently and another good run is on the cards. She is feared most ahead of Whats In The Bag, who is given another chance to build on his encouraging comeback spin at Yarmouth, and Mart.

One More Wave is the solid option but the well-handicapped TYGER BAY shaped nicely last time and could take a step forward.

15:35 Clonmel Maiden Chase 17f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

BLEU D'ENFER is entitled to come on from his fourth place over a staying trip at Down Royal last month. That was his first outing for more than six months and the form received a hefty boost when the winner followed up in the Porterstown at Fairyhouse on Sunday. Champagne Mahler would welcome plenty of rain, but he does have a notable third in a beginners' chase at Tipperary in the book behind a horse (Pinkerton) that went on to win the Galway Plate. Undeniable Alibi is likely to progress from an opening fourth over fences at Punchestown in November, while Kiltealy Park won twice over the smaller obstacles and has her first crack at racecourse fences.

Not as competitive as the numbers suggest and UNDENIABLE ALIBI is fancied to build on his promising chasing debut fourth at Punchestown and get off the mark in this sphere. Bleu d'Enfer also has the form to play a part, while Starman and Champagne Mahler also enter calculations.

Course maiden hurdle winner UNDENIABLE ALIBI just makes the cut on the stipulated 116 hurdle-rating maximum and can take advantage

16:00 Newcastle Stakes (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

FORT GEORGE confirmed the promise that he displayed on debut when narrowly denied over C&D a month ago and Ed Walker's colt clearly sets the standard based on that evidence. Ashmolean is the second foal out of the dual Group 1 winner Coronet and he has to be of interest on his racecourse bow, while Gunship is a half-brother to Phoenix Of Spain and is another noteworthy debutant.

FORT GEORGE sets a decent standard and should have more to offer so he has to be the call, although a strong market move for well-bred Gosden stable newcomer Ashmolean would make him a possible threat. Merchant could leave his debut form behind and also makes the shortlist.

Fort George sets the standard but a chance is taken on ASHMOLEAN, a Frankel colt who is out of the high-class racemare Coronet.

16:30 Newcastle Handicap (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

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

SHERLOCK found only a progressive rival too strong at Southwell last month and he looks to have been found a suitable opportunity to gain some compensation. A 4lb rise is unlikely to be the ceiling of his ability and Kevin Ryan's charge may open his account. Reporter has offered enough in three novice events to suggest that he can be competitive off an opening mark of 69. The Wootton Bassett colt is feared most, ahead of Saxon Raider.

The return to 7f will suit REPORTER now that he's pitched into a nursery off what could prove to be a very attractive mark. Ed Walker's charge therefore earns the vote ahead of Saxon Raider, who probably wasn't seen to best effect at Southwell recently and remains of interest. Sherlock has improved since being gelded/switched to nurseries and he looks sure to be involved, while Kammeel is also worth considering.

Having been gelded after showing improved form at Kempton last time, KAMMEEL is taken to get off the mark on his nursery debut.

17:00 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

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

Having capitalised on a declining mark at Southwell last time out, Glendown warrants respect. However, a 4lb rise may be enough to thwart the four-year-old in his follow-up bid and BELLAGIO MAN makes slightly more appeal. Antony Brittain's charge arrives on the back of a solid second over C&D and, off an unchanged mark, a fourth victory on the all-weather may be in the offing. Jackson Street and Hk Fourteen are also noted.

Lots with chances. HK FOURTEEN didn't enjoy the rub of the green when fourth to Glendown at Southwell last time and rates just the pick of these weights so edges the vote. Golden Duke heads the list of dangers, although Bellagio Man, Glendown and Phoenix Beach all need factoring in too.

The return to Class 6 company can see GOLDEN DUKE come out on top. Bellagio Man may prove best of the rest.

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

RED MAIDS bounced back to form when landing the spoils over track and trip 17 days ago. A 3lb higher mark looks more than workable dropping into class 5 company and the daughter of Invincible Spirit is fancied to follow up. Fellow last-time-out C&D scorer Lincoln Legacy should remain competitive and isn't taken lightly in retained blinkers. Holy Fire and Dazy Mazy are also worth a second look.

HOLY FIRE has a bit of class for this level and gets the vote. Dazy Mazy returned to form when runner-up over 6f here 17 days ago and is second choice ahead of last-time-out C&D scorer Lincoln Legacy.

A chance is taken on STYLE OF LIFE who had excuses when below par last time. Expect another positive ride back over 7f.

18:00 Newcastle Handicap (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

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

STRAIGHT A failed to see out the extended mile at Wolverhampton last time, having previously landed a double over this distance, and Mick Appleby's charge looks worthy of another chance off his current mark. Eligible is well treated on previous winning form and finished a creditable fourth in a higher grade at Southwell on his latest start, while Novak arrives in fine fettle and is not easily dismissed.

ELIGIBLE signalled he is ready to strike again when fourth at Southwell last time out and can capitalise on a handy-looking mark now. Tomorrow Day is feared most in his bid for a fourth success of 2024 ahead of Alpine Sierra and Monopolise.

This can go to TOMORROW DAY is unbeaten in three starts here and shouldn't be inconvenienced by the step back up to 7f.

18:30 Newcastle Handicap (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

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

The progressive Barnaby should remain competitive raised a further 4lb after landing a four-timer, but STARLINER drops in class and makes more appeal. The son of Showcasing made most of the running when successful over course and distance last month and could prove difficult to beat if allowed to set his own pace once again. Angel Of England steps back up in distance with a shout and is preferred to the veteran Bobby Joe Leg of the rest.

BARNABY continues to thrive and is fancied to make light of a 4 lb rise for his recent C&D success and complete a five-timer here. Veteran Bobby Joe Leg also possesses a fine record here and is next on the list with Lahab, Angel of England and Starliner all in the picture too.

There should be a solid pace on here and one that BARNABY (nap) can track en route to a fifth straight win.

19:00 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

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

TRAIS FLUORS had plummeted down the handicap since scoring here in January and took advantage on last month's return to this venue. A 3lb rise for that success is unlikely to anchor Linda Perratt's charge and he can go in again. Panama City placed over course and distance on his latest start and could land a blow off the same mark, while Balqaa is only 2lb higher than when winning here in September and may also get involved.

TRAIS FLUORS capitalised on a reduced mark when going in over C&D last time and looks weighted to go close again despite taking a 3 lb rise. Fellow C&D scorer Sandret heads the list of dangers, with Balqaa and Annandale not discounted either.

Despite a 3lb rise, TRAIS FLUORS remains well handicapped on form from even the start of the year.

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.
