UK Horse Racing Tips: Newcastle

Antrim shed his maiden tag at the fourth time of asking over C&D in October and is an interesting contender on his handicap/stable debut. However, SEA LEGEND bounced back to form when second over track and trip on his latest outing and might capitalise on his career-low rating. The in-form Jez Bomb is another to keep a close eye on.
Prediction : 1st Sea Legend 2nd Antrim 3rd Jez Bomb

LAKE COMO showed a big chunk of improvement to fill the runner-up spot over this trip at Lingfield last month and the son of St Mark's Basilica looks to have been found a good opportunity to get off the mark. Euston Hall was sent off favourite for his debut and could only manage fourth at Kempton, but he might be worth another chance. King's English cost 75,000 euros as a yearling and warrants a market check.
Prediction : 1st Lake Como 2nd Euston Hall 3rd Kings English

Up The Agenda made it two from three starts since tackling nurseries at this venue on Tuesday and holds an obvious chance, but JACKABI gets the vote. Despite pulling hard, the son of Hello Youmzain did well to finish second at Wolverhampton a month ago and he could take advantage of an unchanged mark. Senor Campanaro also has a solid chance.
Prediction : 1st Jackabi 2nd Up The Agenda 3rd Senor Campanaro

A competitive event and just a tentative vote is for MR MISTOFFELEES, who went in here two starts ago and almost followed up at Southwell last time. Only beaten half a length into second on that occasion, another bold showing looks assured. Chances can be made for several others but C&D winners Midnight Lion and Eldrickjones are the pick of them.
Prediction : 1st Mr Mistoffelees 2nd Midnight Lion 3rd Eldrickjones

BRAVE TRAVELLER produced his best effort so far when making his nursery debut here 11 days ago and he's well worth another chance with the promise of more to come. King Victorious is the main danger as he boasts a similar profile to the selection and performed well for the silver medal at Wolverhampton a couple of weeks ago. Sunniva is noted too.
Prediction : 1st Brave Traveller 2nd King Victorious 3rd Sunniva

C&D winner Spun To Gold is highly progressive and is of obvious interest coming in here chasing a four-timer. He only won narrowly last time out, though, and might struggle to successfully concede weight to TEARDROPS, who was mightily impressive when scoring over the track and trip nine days ago. It may also be worth keeping an eye on Superior Council.
Prediction : 1st Teardrops 2nd Spun To Gold 3rd Superior Council

The runner-up at Southwell on his last couple of starts, True Promise debuts for his new trainer with solid claims. Dandy Dinmont is usually thereabouts at this level and found only one too good here last time, but it could be the turn of BRAZILIAN BELLE once again. Michael Dods' sprinter finished a creditable fourth in a tougher contest over C&D last month and the runner-up has since franked that form by winning.
Prediction : 1st Brazilian Belle 2nd True Promise 3rd Dandy Dinmont

Orbital Chime looks likely to feature once again, having gone close at this track prior to winning over 6f at Southwell. However, DARK KESTREL finished a close fourth over C&D last week, despite a tardy start, and Antony Brittain's charge could make a bold bid only 3lb higher than when successful here in October. Castan makes more appeal than Darlo Pride of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Dark Kestrel 2nd Orbital Chime 3rd Castan

AISLING OSCAR bids for a hat-trick of course victories. Joshua Brown's 5lb allowance negates a penalty, and the progressive four-year-old will likely launch another strong challenge having narrowly beaten Concert Boy over a mile here three days ago. The latter looks sure to be thereabouts once again off an unchanged mark, while Pit Boss has placed at the track on his last three starts and could make his presence felt.
Prediction : 1st Aisling Oscar 2nd Concert Boy 3rd Pit Boss
