Newcastle 1.50 Desert Cop 1/2 pt ew @ 20’1 – Comes into to this on the back of just three runs , but he is bred to be pretty smart and one can only think there is plenty more to come
Newcastle 2.25 Berkshire Rocco 1pt win @ 15’8 – Looked to be given too much to do last time out at Kempton ( sat out the back and gave winner too much rope ) . Looked smart when winning at Southwell the time before and that is the best form on offer
Lingfield 2.40 Hafeet Alain 1/2 pt ew @ 12’1 firms offering 4 places – Has dropped down the weights plenty since last win ( over C&D off a mark of 94 ) Has not been sighted in 4 runs this year , but coming back here and with pace to aim at could well revive
Newcastle 3.00 Notre Belle Bete 1/2 pt ew @ 10’1 – Bit of a stab in the dark in a tricky looking race , but this step up in trip should be ideal & the ones at the head of this market have plenty of miles on the clock
Lingfield 3.15 Epsom Faithfull 1/2 pt ew @ 14’1 / 12’1 firms offering 4 places – Was finishing like a bullet when last seen over this C&D in February . Has excuses for last two efforts & look way overpriced on that C&D effort
Newcastle 3.35 Berkshire Shadow 1.5pt win @ 11’8 (NAP) – Came back to action in winning style at Wolverhampton ( strong form ) & holds a big class edge on these rivals
Lingfield 3.50 Outbreak 1pt win @ 9’2 – Only had a handful of starts and was most unlucky last time out when virtually getting wiped out at the gates. Came home well after that interference and looks ready made for this step ip in trip
Newcastle 4.10 Hodd’s Girl 1/2 pt ew @ 11’1 – The front two in the market offer no value whatsoever at their current prices . The selection does not have that much to find on ratings with those two and should not be far away
Newcastle 4.45 Summerghand 1/2 pt ew @ 11’2 firms offering 4 places – Is not getting any younger , but this veteran is liable to relish this sort of test and is a winning machine ( 16 wins ) in his career
ITV Double
2pt win double Berkshire Rocco & Berkshire Shadow
