Newcastle Betting Odds

Good second at Newton Abbot in September but hasn't been in the same form since, finishing mid-field at Musselburgh 11 days ago. Drop back in grade could help, though, with tongue strap reapplied.

Made the frame on second of 2 starts in bumpers for Daragh Bourke. Little impact over hurdles for current yard this season, tenth of 11 in novice at Wetherby in December, but any market support should be noted as he goes handicapping with tongue strap fitted.

Still looking for a first success over hurdles but went off too hard when mid-field in a well-contested handicap at Musselburgh 11 days ago. Remains early days for current yard and he can make his presence felt back down in grade with cheekpieces added.

Without a win when trained in Ireland but successful on second start for current yard at Musselburgh in December. Below form last 2 starts, though, never dangerous when third of 9 at Sedgefield on the back of a breathing operation 3 weeks ago.

Fair winner on the Flat but yet to recapture form shown when modest third on hurdle debut for Joseph O'Brien last summer, sixth of 9 in handicap at Carlisle 6 weeks ago. Has been given a chance by the handicapper, though, as he drops back in trip with blinkers added.

Runner-up sole outing in Irish points but down the field in 3 starts over hurdles so far, again jumping right when a well-beaten sixth of 9 in 2½m novice at Uttoxeter when last seen in October. Market could be informative as he goes handicapping.

Third of 5 in a Kelso bumper but hasn't offered much over hurdles, completing for the first time when seventh of 11 in novice at Kelso in February. Has work to do as he makes handicap debut.

Fairly useful on the Flat for David O'Meara and third in a Musselburgh maiden on stable/hurdling debut in February last year. Struggled for form in the rest of 2025, including back on the level, but made the frame in handicap on the Flat here 26 days ago.

Fair Flat winner for Daniel & Claire Kubler and showed more than on hurdles debut when fifth of 10 in juvenile at Musselburgh on New Year's Day. However, in first-time hood he was well held at Catterick 2 months ago. Has something to find on handicap debut in this sphere.

Successful on 4 of last 5 starts in 2024/25 but has struggled for form this season. However, there were better signs before departing at the last at Carlisle 23 days ago and she's eased another 3 lb in the weights.

Little promise in a pair of bumpers and hasn't fared any better over hurdles, eighth of 12 in maiden over C&D last time. Has enough to prove on handicap bow.

In the frame in a couple of points but has found things tough in a trio of starts over hurdles, tailed off in an Ayr novice when last seen in December (has had breathing operation since). Tongue strap applied, though he's 10 lb out of the weights for his first handicap.

Irish maiden hurdle winner in 2023 and proved that ability remains intact following a lengthy absence when third on debut for this yard at Market Rasen in July. Has gone backwards from that effort in 4 subsequent outings, though.

NON RUNNER.
