UK Horse Racing Tips: Newcastle

This contest might not take much winning, so a chance can be taken on BOLLIN MATILDA. Donald Whillans' mare is yet to taste victory in eight starts, but she produced a much better effort to finish sixth at Ayr last time and could go close off a 2lb lower rating. Fainche got up for third at Wetherby last month and she could get involved off a 1lb lower mark, while Fiveafterfour won't mind conditions and is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Bollin Matilda 2nd Fainche 3rd Fiveafterfour

From The Clouds and One More Stroke come into this on the back of securing doubles, so they boast appealing profiles on their handicap debuts, with slight preference for the former. However, they could both be up against it to deny HORN CAPE, who produced another good display to finish second to a subsequent winner in this grade over C&D last month and a 2lb rise may not be enough to prevent him from going one better.
Prediction : 1st Horn Cape 2nd From The Clouds 3rd One More Stroke

Choosethenews was beaten four lengths into third at Carlisle and, with Brian Hughes booked, he could get into contention off a 1lb lower rating. However, PAY THE PIPER lurks on an appealing mark as he switches back to this sphere after his well-beaten third over the smaller obstacles here. Ann Hamilton's nine-year-old should have no problem with testing conditions and he looks the way to go. High Moon showed improvement in first-time cheekpieces to finish second at Ayr and he can also go well.
Prediction : 1st Pay The Piper 2nd Choosethenews 3rd High Moon

BENEFICIALLY YOURS was found an excellent opportunity to get off the mark when scoring over C&D last month. He appeared to relish the heavy conditions on that occasion and this appears to be an even easier task on paper, despite his penalty. Something Golden shouldn't be lacking for fitness having raced in point-to-points recently, while Charizord appears best of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Beneficially Yours 2nd Something Golden 3rd Charizord

CALL ME JACK arrives boasting a progressive profile having won two of his last three starts. The latest success came over C&D when improving for the step up in trip and the five-year-old is capable of taking further steps forward. Glory Hights has been consistent since beginning life in handicap company and is expected to be in the mix again. Others to note are Atomic Angel and Adveram.
Prediction : 1st Call Me Jack 2nd Glory Hights 3rd Atomic Angel

SIX ONE NINE failed to fire at Sedgefield a month ago, but the nine-year-old can be given another chance based on his two victories over an extended 2m here prior to that defeat. Rollerruler showed more when stepped up to this trip at Hexham last time and he could prove to be the main threat to the selection, ahead of Poetry Man and Nights In Venice.
Prediction : 1st Six One Nine 2nd Rollerruler 3rd Poetry Man

BATTLE BORN LAD displayed plenty of promise when filling third place on his racecourse bow over C&D last month and the Mark Walford-trained five-year-old could be hard to beat with the benefit of that experience. Gentleman Bill beat Traveling Soldier in an Irish point-to-point in December and they have to be of interest on their Rules debuts, while Tees Comp's Clive is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Battle Born Lad 2nd Gentleman Bill 3rd Traveling Soldier
