UK Horse Racing Tips: Newcastle

It's Maisy has been a beaten-favourite on her last two starts and is likely to prove popular again, but the less-exposed ROYAL MAGGS gets the nod. Mark Walford's charge looked a shade outpaced when keeping on for second over the extended 2m4f here last month so stepped up in trip for her handicap bow, the daughter of Telescope can take a step forward. Seasmoke is next best.
Prediction : 1st Royal Maggs 2nd Its Maisy 3rd Seasmoke

A chance can be taken on THE CLONMEL KID, who shaped with promise on his fencing bow despite appearing to not see out 3m at Wetherby. The seven-year-old should be all the wiser for that experience and with the scope for improvement, especially over this shorter trip, he might provide some value. Hawkseye View fell here two starts ago before struggling in a class 2 at Carlisle but is in with a shout today, as is Independent Jimmy, who should benefit from a return to further.
Prediction : 1st The Clonmel Kid 2nd Hawkseye View 3rd Independent Jimmy

National Question regained the winning thread with a narrow success at Carlisle last month but a 4lb rise looks a little harsh and so TOBY TWO SCOOPS is preferred. Micky Hammond's charge has been knocking hard at the door of late but it might be that the better ground can bring about an improved display. Lone Star is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Toby Two Scoops 2nd National Question 3rd Lone Star

Course scorer GERYVILLE gets what can only be described as a tentative vote in a trappy handicap chase for punters to solve. He wasn't beaten too far into third at Wetherby latest and that followed a smooth success there in January. He might be able to dominate this small field and strike at the main expense of Hello Judge and Old Gregorian.
Prediction : 1st Geryville 2nd Hello Judge 3rd Old Gregorian

DOUBLE DIGITS might take a bit of beating in his current form. A win and second-placed finish over fences at Sedgefield make him the one to beat and he's no stranger to scoring over hurdles, as evidenced this time last year when he recorded a double at Carlisle and Kelso. As Fast As Wind and Thank You Blue are the dangers.
Prediction : 1st Double Digits 2nd As Fast As Wind 3rd Thank You Blue

DIAMOND KODA couldn't land a blow at Newbury but might be worth another chance while an impressive Doncaster success two starts ago remains fresh in the memory. The trip, ground and track should suit and he gets the nod ahead of Dunkerque, who has to concede weight all round on the back of a disappointing Wetherby display, but it was much better when he finished second at Sedgefield prior to that. Lost Frequencies is another to bear in mind.
Prediction : 1st Diamond Koda 2nd Dunkerque 3rd Lost Frequencies

MIDDAY RENDEZVOUS has more on his plate attempting to win under a penalty, but he was quite taking here on debut when the penny dropped as he kept on stylishly for a narrow success. He is entitled to have improved plenty for that outing and can give these rivals weight and a beating. Attin is a newcomer to consider closely and the market should guide, while Doubleosue won a point-to-point in January and is also noted.
Prediction : 1st Midday Rendezvous 2nd Attin 3rd Doubleosue
