200/1 |
Brave Musketeer
Failed to beat a rival in similar event over C&D last week (fourth start) and this 9yo again has easily the worst chance on ratings.

- Darragh Keenan / K Scott

4/1 |
Concert Boy
Comes with risk, being a regular slow starter who has a decidedly poor strike-rate (1-39); however, has plenty of Newcastle form and holds the best chance on ratings switched to classified level.

Eva Rosie
Maiden who had no luck (repeatedly denied a clear run late on) in similar event over C&D last week; solid record (placed five times) otherwise at classified level and has possibilities granted better fortune.

40/1 |
Inexplicable
Ten AW wins, the most recent in C&D classified event last March; ties in with a couple of these rivals on C&D running last week; just not certain to back up that effort, having been inconsistent of late.

Just Typical
Disappointing favourite here last month but has performed well in his other two Newcastle starts, notably a 7f handicap success in November (has form over 1m); major contender at the weights.

- Jason Hart / D Bourke

2/1 |
Making A Move
Ex-Irish maiden who posted an improved effort (close third) in C&D classified contest last week, looking a shade unlucky as he might have won with a clearer run; respected on third run for new yard.

- Martin's Brig
- Sean Kirrane / D Thompson

Martin's Brig
Ran respectably from the front in similar event over C&D last week, beating all bar the market leader; has loads of other form at this venue, including two wins last year, and can't be ruled out.

Mr Coco Bean
On a very long losing spell and recent form is unconvincing; this veteran is again best watched.

- Ben Sanderson / S Whitaker

7/1 |
Mr Heinz
Has gained both wins over C&D, namely in modest handicaps; below best in most recent Newcastle attempt but has frame possibilities on classified debut, provided he runs to his rating.

Pop Favorite
Record includes six handicap wins over C&D; not far behind Martin's Brig over C&D last week on classified debut; interesting, having been successful the last time Mikkel Mortensen was on board.

150/1 |
Top Gun Tina
Maiden who has made the frame four times at Newcastle; however, failed to beat a rival here last month on return from layoff; others preferred.
