The Northumberland Chase is the feature contest on the final day of racing at Newcastle in 2017, and a decent race is in store with a good tempo guaranteed by the likes of Never Up and Leanna Ban. Un Guet Apens favours chasing to hurdling, and there must be a school of thought which suggests that he's still on a fair mark over fences these days despite being raised 4lb for his Carlisle success last month. Chidswell is best described as a 'bit of a lad', but on his better days he's a useful horse, but the likeliest winner here is the unexposed DUBAI ANGEL. He stays well (further), but this is probably his optimum trip, and he arrives a fresh horse for this race after making a pleasing fencing debut at Carlisle in October when finishing 5L third to course specialist Derintoher Yank.
