Oh So Grand was narrowly denied by a well-handicapped rival at Epsom last time and must be respected, but a chance is taken on BOLDLY. The son of Galileo, who showed signs of ability across his qualifying runs, ought to prove better than an opening mark of 74 and it would come as no surprise to see one from this yard make an immediate impact now switched to handicaps. Others to note include Savrola and Tabuk.
Prediction : 1st Boldly 2nd Oh So Grand 3rd Savrola

16:55 Newcastle

It might be telling that Godolphin have opted to keep MILITARY MARCH, who has not been sighted on a racecourse since finishing down the field in a Group 2 at Meydan in January 2021, in training. The market may prove the best guide to his chances today, but the talented son of New Approach could be worth chancing from a lofty weight. Wynter Wildes merits consideration from the opposite end of the handicap, while Capital Theory, Haunted Dream and Sir Chauvelin are just a few others to note.
Prediction : 1st Military March 2nd Wynter Wildes 3rd Capital Theory

17:30 Newcastle

FLICKERING FLAME shaped with significant promise on her debut three weeks ago, finishing third, and natural improvement might be enough to see James Tates' filly strike at the second time of asking. Ciara Pearl merits respect, but the penalty incurred for her recent success will make things tougher. Storm And Conquest makes more than enough appeal on paper to warrant a market check ahead of his first start.
Prediction : 1st Flickering Flame 2nd Ciara Pearl 3rd Storm And Conquest

18:00 Newcastle

SUPREME TENACITY has posted some creditable efforts in defeat beyond a mile of late and the Invincible Army gelding appears to have been found a suitable opportunity, on the drop to 7f, to gain a breakthrough success. Socialise should appreciate a return to this trip having been outpaced when fourth at this venue over 6f recently and warrants consideration, along with Goldmine Girl, who arrives in better form than most.
Prediction : 1st Supreme Tenacity 2nd Socialise 3rd Goldmine Girl

18:30 Newcastle

MR HEINZ relished the sharper test when appearing to win with something in hand over C&D earlier in the month and the four-year-old should take all the stopping off only 4lb higher in the ratings. Pop Favorite also won over this track and trip in October and the gelded son of Fastnet Rock should give another good account of himself. In-form duo Royal Prospect and Bold Territories shouldn't be far away in their current vein of form either.
Prediction : 1st Mr Heinz 2nd Pop Favorite 3rd Royal Prospect

19:00 Newcastle

Goldsmith has displayed enough promise on his last few outings to suggest that another victory shouldn't be far away, but Alice Haynes' inmate may have to play second fiddle to the progressive PORT ERIN. The three-year-old posted a career-best performance when landing the spoils at Kempton on Wednesday and he won with enough authority on that occasion to suggest that he can defy a combined 7lb higher rating in this event. C&D winner Southwold may fare best of the remaining protagonists.
Prediction : 1st Port Erin 2nd Goldsmith 3rd Southwold

19:30 Newcastle

A comfortable winner over C&D last time out, ELETTARIA has been in excellent form of late and he is taken to follow up off a mere 3lb higher mark. The daughter of Mehmas gets the vote ahead of the capable Cosa Sara and Clotherholme, who ran well to finish third over C&D last time out and is 7lb below his last winning rating.
Prediction : 1st Elettaria 2nd Clotherholme 3rd Cosa Sara

20:00 Newcastle

BENEFICIARY didn't get the clearest of runs at Musselburgh before staying on late to finish fifth and it may be that stepping back up in trip can eke out some improvement. The booking of Daniel Tudhope catches the eye and he is narrowly preferred to Deputise, who should appreciate a return to the all-weather, having won at Southwell in August. Doon The Glen ran a decent race over C&D last time out and must enter calculations, along with Eyes and Jazzagal.
Prediction : 1st Beneficiary 2nd Doon The Glen 3rd Deputise

20:30 Newcastle

A determined winner over C&D on his penultimate start, BLACKCURRENT may not have been suited by dropping back to the minimum trip subsequently but he still ran with plenty of credit in second. The seven-year-old can make it two wins from his last three starts tonight, with Aclaim To Fame looking best placed to chase him home following a strong effort on his first run for new connections at Catterick. Guest List and Wrenegade Lad are entitled to be thereabouts as well.
Prediction : 1st Blackcurrent 2nd Aclaim To Fame 3rd Wrenegade Lad
