UK Horse Racing Tips: Newcastle

Jez Bomb had the subsequent winner Without Compromise back in second when scoring over C&D last month. He could feature again, despite a 6lb rise, but PROJECT GEOFIN is taken to edge an open contest. Geoff Oldroyd's charge finished a solid second in a tougher contest than this at Redcar and a similar effort could see him resume winning ways back on this surface. Lightening Company is not out of it either.
Prediction : 1st Project Geofin 2nd Jez Bomb 3rd Lightening Company

LEONETTO showed early pace at Doncaster on debut before the testing ground took its toll in the closing stages. A half-brother to Group 1 winner Lady Bowthorpe, the son of Frankel will likely find this surface more to his liking and he may well have a say in the finish. Kevin Stott abandons City Of Dreams for stablemate and newcomer Joud. The latter is related to three winners, while Loquella is another debutant to note.
Prediction : 1st Leonetto 2nd Joud 3rd Loquella

EDDAARI has shown enough in a couple of starts on the turf to suggest he should go close at this lower level. Third at Nottingham last month, he can build on that promising effort with Jack Callan's allowance in his favour. Mythical Bay is a likely improver having encountered soft going at Bath on debut, while Joyful Lawyer represents Karl Burke's powerful yard and is the first foal out of a winner on the all-weather.
Prediction : 1st Eddaari 2nd Mythical Bay 3rd Joyful Lawyer

Joolianoss was a revelation at the beginning of the year and it will be interesting to see how ready he is for this reappearance. In contrast, UNASSUMING was seen in action just last week, when pipped over 7f here. The return to a mile is very much in her favour and the decision to get her out again before her revised rating kicks in can pay dividends. Angel Hunter shared the spoils at Southwell latest and should be thereabouts again, with Rainbow Nebula and First Ambition just two others to consider in a competitive affair.
Prediction : 1st Unassuming 2nd Angel Hunter 3rd Joolianoss

Bibendum beat Henery Hawk to the runner-up spot over track and trip, and he didn't get a clear run next time so that effort is best forgiven. Desert Champion burst back into life when second over C&D, on the same card that Pockley let favourite-backers down over 6f. The latter will be happier back at the minimum trip, but it might pay to take a chance on RAMON DI LORIA, who made the frame over 6f last week but was successful over this C&D as recently as September.
Prediction : 1st Ramon Di Loria 2nd Bibendum 3rd Pockley

Ryan Kavanagh was seen to good effect on UNITING at Kempton last week, with Ian Williams' three-year-old showing a good attitude to break his duck. He escapes a penalty and, with his confidence presumably buoyed, he can follow up. Hale End has been freshened up following a busy summer and remains on a handy mark. Gressington has claims if judged on his C&D second at the start of the month, rather than his subsequent Southwell display.
Prediction : 1st Uniting 2nd Hale End 3rd Gressington

HEAVENLY HEATHER appreciated the return to 6f when finding only one too good in a stronger event here 10 days ago. She sprung a massive shock off a higher mark here back in April and Tracy Waggott's filly gets another chance. Secret Guest was alongside the selection in third last week and could be thereabouts once again, while Marching Mac landed a brace on soft ground last month and steps up in trip with a shout.
Prediction : 1st Heavenly Heather 2nd Secret Guest 3rd Marching Mac

Raised only 3lb for winning at Wolverhampton, Bungle Bay has to enter calculations. Freak Encounter posted a much better effort when fourth here last week and could be on the premises, but DESERT BEAUTY makes most appeal. She had to be switched for a clear run when finishing runner-up at Southwell last month and can open her account on the all-weather with normal luck in-running.
Prediction : 1st Desert Beauty 2nd Bungle Bay 3rd Freak Encounter
