Newcastle

Has done well for new yard. 11/4 and visored for 1st time, won 9-runner handicap at Southwell (12.1f) 11 days ago. Still feasibly treated on best form, so not without hope of following up if the headgear continues to have a positive effect. Yard going well.

Slowly away, 85/40, respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW) 5 days ago. Visor on 1st time and one to consider, especially with a better start. Stable in excellent form.

Had been crying out for a step-up in trip and obliged on first attempt over middle distance, a career best when winning a 10-runner handicap at this course (10.2f, 9/2) 12 days ago by 4½ lengths from Come on John. Up in distance again today but half-sister won over 1m 4f and looks a big player.

Lightly-raced maiden. Seventh of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (15.8f, AW, 22/1) 11 days ago, never involved. Back down in trip and blinkers on 1st time but bit to find with market principals.

Returned without headgear and shaped as if needing the run after 7 months off when 43 lengths eighth of 9 to Khangai in handicap at Southwell (12.1f, 50/1) 11 days ago. Should strip fitter today.

Unreliable individual. Keen with fifth of 8 when last seen on the Flat (Musselburgh 1m). Well-beaten in three runs over maiden hurdles since. Returns to the Flat from 1 lb out of the handicap and others preferred.

Lightly-raced maiden who showed little when fifth of 10 in a handicap (40/1) at Southwell (14.1f) 96 days ago. Tough ask on first run for yard after leaving Tony Coyle & Kaine Wood.
