16:00 Newcastle

I was really impressed with HORN CAPE over C&D on penultimate start and he just looked to bump into one at Sedgefield last time. That form has already been franked since with the fourth Coup De Coeur winning impressively yesterday. He is off the same mark and back at this venue should be the one to beat. Matchless is proving hard to catch right and put in a poor display when tailed off at Musselburgh last month. Freshened up since he could be the danger but has a fair bit to prove at present. Since Day One could be a greater threat if fit enough to do himself justice on return.

Horn Cape - 1pt @ 11/4

With 2 wins from 3 starts since sent over fences PEPE LE MOKO looks to have found another good opportunity. He won head in chest over track and trip last month and despite a 9lb hike could easily still be ahead of the assessor. He has progressive form and if stepping forward again should be up to justifying favouritism. Grandads Cottage went smoothly through the race before winning readily at Leicester last month. That form has been franked since with the third Sheldon winning readily next time out so he is the obvious danger despite a 5lb rise. Heltenham is also noted if bouncing back.
