15:30 Newcastle - CADEAU MAGNIFIQUE 8/1
1 Point Each-Way
Current favourite, Theglasgowwarrior, hit the front a fair way from home last time out, which isn't always ideal at this venue, but was only headed late on and this drop back to 1m2f may well suit. However, one at a bigger price who catches the eye is Cadeau Magnifique. Richard Fahey's charge was entitled to need his recent run at this course (after a 343 day break) but still ran a perfectly respectable race finishing fourth over a trip which was probably on the sharp side for him. Prior to his long lay-off he ran a big race over this course and distance when finishing second to General Hazard, who has won a further 3 races subsequently and is 11lb higher than when beating Cadeau Magnifique by half a length. Whereas Richard Fahey's gelding is just 2lb higher than that run and with that recent run under his belt, he looks worth an each-way bet here.
17:15 Newcastle - RICH AGAIN 16/1
0.5 Points Each-Way
Despite his tendency to miss the break in his races, I can't resist a bet on current outsider of the field, Rich Again. He was slowly away again on his recent start over six furlongs here, but this quirky sort has form figures of 141163 over this five furlong trip and was only beaten a length on his most recent attempt. Kevin Stott's mount is also starting to look very well treated, he is now 7lb lower than his most recent course and distance success and recent runs suggest his turn may be near.
