The most high-profile nursery of the season at Newcastle, although the Blaydon Race is a shadow of former Bank Holiday glories of yesteryear. That said; an interesting race lies in store with course winner Gallaside seeking the hat-trick for Archie Watson, the Camelot colt Arthur's Court having shown improvement for making a step up in trip, and Bravo Faisal feasibly underestimated after winning a tactical three-runner contest. However, owing largely to an exceptional strike-rate at Newcastle (6-14; 43%), small stakes are played on the Roger Charlton-trained HEXAGON. This consistent Acclamation gelding was a deserving winner at Ffos Las just over three weeks ago.
