UK Horse Racing Tips: Newcastle

BEAR KODE had a subsequent winner in second when scoring over 7f here and, after finishing down the field in a hot sales race at York subsequently, he gets the vote to regain the winning thread now stepping up to a mile for the first time and with his sights lowered. Made The Cut should have learned plenty from her debut third over 7f at Newmarket and can emerge as the main danger to the selection. Basalt is another to consider in what should be an informative event.
Prediction : 1st Bear Kode 2nd Made The Cut 3rd Basalt

In what looks a trappy affair, DOUBLETHETROUBLE gets a tentative vote. John Butler's stayer showed a likeable attitude when scoring in an apprentices' race at Lingfield last week and, off an unchanged mark, he might be able to bring up a quickfire double. Myboymax posted a low-key effort at Ripon recently, but he is the type to bounce back and must enter calculations off just 3lb higher than his last winning figure. Crystal Guard is respected most out of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Doublethetrouble 2nd Myboymax 3rd Crystal Guard

The relatively experienced BRECKENRIDGE has already shown more than enough to suggest she can land the spoils in a race of this nature and after faring best of those ridden prominently when runner-up at Nottingham, the daughter of Masar gets the vote to gain a breakthrough victory. Countess Candy made a pleasing start when third at Yarmouth and can give the selection most to think about, although this step back up in trip can see Delay to best effect and she is also considered.
Prediction : 1st Breckenridge 2nd Countess Candy 3rd Delay

MISSMIMI remains a maiden, but she has been narrowly denied on her last couple of starts over C&D and it would be no surprise to see her get off the mark here. Too Much Too Young and She'sashambles are recent winners to consider, while Sydney Bay and Lil Wade are others who are capable of going well in an open event.
Prediction : 1st Missmimi 2nd Too Much Too Young 3rd Shesashambles

Kyber Crystal has to be shortlisted following her success at Musselburgh a couple of weeks ago. That said, preference is for FOREVER EIGHTEEN, who caught the eye when fourth over 5f here last time and the step up in trip could see him break through. Tomorrow Day edges out Alibi Warning and See My Baby Jive to be best of the rest.
Prediction : 1st Forever Eighteen 2nd Kyber Crystal 3rd Tomorrow Day

POLLY THE ROCKET was only beaten a couple of lengths when third over C&D nine days ago and a reproduction of that level of form may well be good enough off a 2lb lower mark here. Alice's Impact failed to fire last time but is a player based on her previous form, while Noble Consort and Burglar's Dream are others to note.
Prediction : 1st Polly The Rocket 2nd Alices Impact 3rd Noble Consort

Having scored from 1lb out of the handicap over C&D recently, Mr Heinz must enter calculations. However, BARLEYBROWN was two lengths behind in fourth that day and Ruth Carr's charge is taken to exact his revenge off an unchanged mark. The in-form L'Argent also makes appeal dropping from 0-65 into 0-58 company and the four-year-old rates as a viable alternative.
Prediction : 1st Barleybrown 2nd Mr Heinz 3rd LArgent

Although thwarted in his follow-up bid when headed in the closing stages at Southwell earlier this month, compensation could await DANDY FITZ. Tim Easterby's gelding still looks capable of more and another bold bid looks assured off an unchanged mark. Dc Flyer has acquitted himself creditably in defeat since his C&D victory early last month and he's likely to be in the shake-up once more. Lady Of The Garr and Blue Force also have the form to feature.
Prediction : 1st Dandy Fitz 2nd Dc Flyer 3rd Lady Of The Garr

Howzak posted a solid third over 6f at Chepstow last time out, but a return to 5f may leave him vulnerable to speedier rivals on his stable bow for Liam Bailey. With that in mind, it could be worth taking a chance on EXCEED. The four-year-old was far from disgraced when fifth in a 14-runner affair over C&D recently and the application of first-time cheekpieces should help. Holbache could also have a say reverting to the all-weather.
Prediction : 1st Exceed 2nd Howzak 3rd Holbache
