UK Horse Racing Tips: Newcastle

Honour Your Dreams ran with plenty of credit when runner-up over 5f here earlier in the month and he is a strong contender, as he takes a notable step up in distance. However, GOBI SUNSET looks the way to go after his victory off 5lb lower over C&D last month. The son of Oasis Dream was making his first start for the Iain Jardine stable on that occasion and he could show a new lease of life now that he has switched yards. Liamarty Dreams takes a drop in grade and has to be considered in this sort of company.
Prediction : 1st Gobi Sunset 2nd Honour Your Dreams 3rd Liamarty Dreams

Eulace Peacock sets the standard with an official rating of 77 and was far from disgraced in third at Newmarket last month, so he is likely to be a player. However, he may have to give best to the 360,000-euro purchase ALTMORE, who is a well-bred son of Showcasing and related to plenty of winners. He is aided by the cracking form of the William Haggas yard at present and the stable won both divisions of this race in 2021. Any market support for Noisy Music on her first start would also be of interest.
Prediction : 1st Altmore 2nd Eulace Peacock 3rd Noisy Music

Beyond Borders justified favouritism when completing a double at Pontefract last time and holds an obvious chance off a 5lb higher mark on his return to the all-weather. However, the less-exposed MASTER OF MY FATE gets the vote, as he was only denied by a neck at Lingfield in his attempt to follow up his debut victory at Pontefract. The son of Footstepsinthesand now makes his nursery debut off a mark of 83, which could prove lenient with further progress expected. Good Point has recorded some solid efforts recently and can fight it out for the minor honours.
Prediction : 1st Master Of My Fate 2nd Beyond Borders 3rd Good Point

It looks best to side with the Charlie Appleby-trained VEIL OF SHADOWS, who fared best of the Godolphin pair last time, finishing a good second in the Pride Stakes at Newmarket. The unexposed daughter of Frankel should have more in the locker and she can go one better now down in class. Sound Angela is 3-4 on all-weather and won well on her only previous visit to this track, while stable companion Mukaddamah is noted too.
Prediction : 1st Veil Of Shadows 2nd Sound Angela 3rd Mukaddamah

SENSE OF DUTY wasn't able to land a blow in the Champions' Sprint at Ascot, but last June's Chipchase success over this C&D lives fresh in the memory and it would be no surprise to see William Haggas' filly post an improved performance back on the Tapeta. Brad The Brief makes plenty of appeal, but he might struggle to concede 5lb to the selection, while Albasheer also makes some appeal.
Prediction : 1st Sense Of Duty 2nd Brad The Brief 3rd Albasheer

Zoumoon sets the form standard, having posted back-to-back second, and although she's respected, a chance can be taken on LION'S HOUSE. The son of Oasis Dream is related to a couple of useful types, who were both successful on the all-weather. Roger Varian has a healthy strike-rate with his juveniles on artificial surfaces and a high draw is a further positive. Harry Did is also noted following an encouraging Kempton debut.
Prediction : 1st Lions House 2nd Zoumoon 3rd Harry Did

A commendable third in last year's Chipchase Stakes on his only previous run on the all-weather, BIELSA is an attractive proposition off 2lb lower than his most recent outing in a valuable York handicap. The Kevin Ryan-trained gelding has also fared well with the draw and could have things set up nicely for him to fly at the finish, if his old rival Gweedore runs his usual race from the front. Gisburn and Monsieur Kodi are another closely-matched pair fancied to be on the premises.
Prediction : 1st Bielsa 2nd Gweedore 3rd Gisburn

LOCAL DYNASTY started off 2023 with a commendable third-placed finish in the Dee Stakes at Chester and, having held his own at this level twice since, he appeals strongly returning to action at this stage of the campaign. Gelded during his break, the son of Dubawi still has bags of scope or improvement and a good performance here can open the door to further all-weather opportunities. Chillingham is another open to further progression, while Euchen Glenn is admirably tough and may represents some value for a place in the fame.
Prediction : 1st Local Dynasty 2nd Chillingham 3rd Euchen Glen
