UK Horse Racing Tips: Newcastle

RUBELLITE makes a lot of sense in the opener as she has won three of her last five starts, two of which have come at this venue. She won last time out despite missing the break so is evidently on good terms with herself and everything points to another bold bid. Newport is capable in a race of this nature and is overlooked at your peril, while Carlisle scorer Farabove The Limit is another to bear in mind.
Prediction : 1st Rubellite 2nd Newport 3rd Farabove The Limit

RUGBY UNION appreciated the return to the all-weather when scoring over C&D at the beginning of the month and it wasn't a surprise on the evidence of a couple of improved efforts at Windsor and Ayr previously. Gemma Tutty clearly has him in good form and he remains on a workable mark, while Token Love and Gemini Man also require some attention.
Prediction : 1st Rugby Union 2nd Token Love 3rd Gemini Man

One Of The Boys was quite disappointing when last of four at Doncaster and those keeping the faith will be banking on a return to all-weather duty sparking an improved performance. He is noted along with Brash, but JANORA lines up in receipt of weight against the boys and could be the one after showing a lot more second time up here three weeks ago.
Prediction : 1st Janora 2nd One Of The Boys 3rd Brash

Arenite arrives with the best form figures after finishing second twice before a third when a beaten favourite at Ripon, but she is yet to mount a serious challenge and others may have her measure. Dreamed ran well on debut to finish a four-length fourth at Kempton and looks likely to improve for the experience but TOP COTE is preferred. His last run saw him badly hampered at Yarmouth but a repeat of an earlier fourth in a better race at Windsor would give him solid claims.
Prediction : 1st Top Cote 2nd Dreamed 3rd Arenite

INVINCIBLE CROWN won over C&D last time out and although he races with a 5lb penalty, he has scored off this mark and higher in the past and is the one in-form option. Older horses have won the last two runnings of this contest and connections of Khabib will be looking to get closer to the selection after finishing fourth to him on his last start, while Sixcor is capable enough on his day but needs the race to fall his way to win this.
Prediction : 1st Invincible Crown 2nd Khabib 3rd Sixcor

BARLEYBROWN finished a length behind Bajan Bandit last weekend over C&D when they filled the first two places, but Ruth Carr's gelding gave away more than that with a slow start and if he gets away smoothly he could well reverse that form. Sassy Glory made all to win here earlier in the month but has an added 5lb now and unless they allow her an easy time at the front again, she may be swallowed up late on to settle for a place.
Prediction : 1st Barleybrown 2nd Bajan Bandit 3rd Sassy Glory

FLOWSTATE has raced over C&D five times so far and won on four of those occasions. He'll be sharper for his recent comeback run at Southwell and David O'Meara's charge is taken to resume winning ways back at this venue. Beattie Is Back scored over track and trip last time and could be in the mix once again, but Frankies Dream looks more favourably treated and rates a bigger danger.
Prediction : 1st Flowstate 2nd Frankies Dream 3rd Beattie Is Back

Yaahobby ended a long losing run when successful here six days ago, though a repeat effort is not guaranteed given he's burdened with a 4lb penalty. LORD ABAMA makes more appeal as Michael Dods' charge bounced back with a close third over C&D at the same fixture. He looks set to strike off his current mark, while Ridgemaster and Uncle Sam are not without place claims.
Prediction : 1st Lord Abama 2nd Yaahobby 3rd Ridgemaster
