UK Horse Racing Tips: Newcastle

Jujubella arrives following a career-best performance here when benefiting from a step up in trip to beat Come On John by four and a half lengths at the start of the month. A 7lb swing in the favour of the latter makes it interesting, though, but KHANGAI appeals most. A winner at Southwell last time, the five-year-old doesn't appear to have reached his ceiling yet and is expected to cope with a 3lb rise.
Prediction : 1st Khangai 2nd Jujubella 3rd Come On John

William Dewhirst has found a new lease of life over the past couple of months with Ben Haslam's gelding a three-time winner over C&D. Starliner (third) and KING'S SCHOOL (fourth) were in behind the five-year-old last week and there is every chance the latter might be able to get his head back in front. He was seeking a hat-trick of victories when slowly away in that contest and is 5lb better off due to the winner carrying a penalty.
Prediction : 1st Kings School 2nd William Dewhirst 3rd Starliner

SHOW ME SHOW ME had been running consistently well in defeat prior to getting back to winning ways over C&D on New Year's Day and the eight-year-old makes plenty of appeal in what looks to be a winnable contest on paper. Water Of Leith is expected to be in the mix after his latest success here, while Above and Darlo Pride appear best of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Show Me Show Me 2nd Water Of Leith 3rd Above

260,000gns purchase SHE'S THE DUCHESS is a half-sister to Lake Forest, who won the Gimcrack in 2023. George Boughey's three-year-old looks to have been found a winnable race on her first start and she could make an instant impression. Anwaar is related to plenty of winners and she would be interesting if the market speaks in her favour, while Memardee will be looking to put her experience to good use.
Prediction : 1st Shes The Duchess 2nd Anwaar 3rd Memardee

PALS BATTALION successfully completed a C&D double when scoring by a neck here last month and the handicapper might have been kind to only put him up 2lb. David O'Meara's four-year-old was worth more than the winning margin suggests on that occasion and he could prove very hard to beat. Mondammej carries a 4lb penalty for his victory over 5f at this venue six days ago and is likely to be thereabouts. Airman takes a drop in grade and is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Pals Battalion 2nd Mondammej 3rd Airman

Now that PARIS LIGHTS has regained the winning thread after a taking success over C&D last time out, there is likely to be plenty more to come from the son of Siyouni. Paul Midgley's charge can uphold form with Tasever (third), who scored over 7f here last Wednesday. Cusack should appreciate dropping back in trip after being worn down late on over 1m2f here last month.
Prediction : 1st Paris Lights 2nd Tasever 3rd Cusack

Turned out again quickly after being narrowly denied over C&D on Friday, TOMORROW DAY can gain compensation off the same mark with Owen Lewis taking off a valuable 7lb in the plate. All four of his career wins have come at this track and the son of Adaay gets the vote ahead of Beneficiary, who should appreciate going back up in trip. Tickets is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Tomorrow Day 2nd Beneficiary 3rd Tickets
