UK Horse Racing Tips: Newcastle

AGREED has gone close on two of her three outings so far and the Gleneagles filly handled the step up to this trip when second at Lingfield last month. She is a half-sister to eight winners and looks sure to get off the mark sooner rather than later. Dark Heart was a little further back in third in that Lingfield contest and is respected representing a leading stable. The blinkered Aleydali can get the better of Chenille for the final podium spot.
Prediction : 1st Agreed 2nd 3rd Aleydali

COMEATCHOO has made the podium on all three outings since scoring at Kempton in January and Phil McEntee's consistent gelding sets the standard here. He was sent off favourite last time and is sure to be popular once again. Superiority is a Book 2 purchase who is really interesting dropping back to 5f on her handicap debut, while Street Life can also appreciate a return to the minimum distance following some encouraging performances of late.
Prediction : 1st Comeatchoo 2nd Superiority 3rd Street Life

TATHMEEN landed his second course-and-distance victory in his last three outings when getting the better of War Whisper last month and the five-year-old can confirm superiority over that rival following only a 2lb rise. Foxy Forever wasn't too far further back in that contest and the 10-year-old can't be ruled out, while Aloysius Lilius wasn't beaten by much when searching for a hat-trick last time and the Irish raider has to be taken seriously.
Prediction : 1st Tathmeen 2nd War Whisper 3rd Aloysius Lilius

GLENAMOY LAD finished second here after a short break on his most recent outing and could take advantage of a handy mark for Michael Wigham. 7lb below his last winning rating, the six-year-old should appreciate a likely strong pace in this contest, and is taken to prove too strong for Insurplus. The latter is in good form but might not fully appreciate this drop to 6f, while I Know How accounted for Indian Sounds over C&D when the pair last met and should confirm that running.
Prediction : 1st Glenamoy Lad 2nd I Know How 3rd Insurplus

Spark Of War hasn't won on the Flat in 17 attempts but warrants respect starting life with Paul Midgley, while Harry George continues to slide back down the ratings and this three-time course winner should appreciate a return to this venue. Preference, instead, is for MANGO CHUTNEY, who enlists the help of P J McDonald for the first time since September 2015. The seven-year-old will be delivered late and wouldn't be scoring out of turn off his fair mark.
Prediction : 1st Mango Chutney 2nd Spark Of War 3rd Harry George

ZARKAVON is a mare on really good terms with herself at present and she's versatile too. Win and placed efforts at Kempton were followed by another taking success here last month, all over this distance, and she might not have reached her ceiling of ability yet. Don't Be Surprised won't go down without a fight, though, as he has hit the crossbar at this venue the last twice, and chances are also given to Rince Deireanach and Peruvian Summer.
Prediction : 1st Zarkavon 2nd Dont Be Surprised 3rd Rince Deireanach

INDUCTIVE appreciated a 103-day break and got off the mark on his first start as a three-year-old at Wolverhampton last month. He has clearly improved over the winter and a 3lb rise in the ratings might not be enough to halt the son of Canford Cliffs. Class Clown has produced his best efforts on the Fibresand at Southwell but cannot be overlooked, while Hong Kong Dragon is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Inductive 2nd Class Clown 3rd Hong Kong Dragon

Patrick will arrive full of confidence following his gritty course success over 6f last month and should go well again off 2lb higher. JEFFREY HARRIS makes more appeal, though, because he has held his form well since winning over track and trip in November and gets another chance off 58 after his creditable second-placed effort last time. Jorvik Prince is also expected to go well.
Prediction : 1st Jeffrey Harris 2nd Patrick 3rd Jorvik Prince
