Verdict

A very low-key start to Eider Chase Day at Newcastle. Taqwaa embarks upon his handicapping career from a most attractive mark (100) but with conditions forecast to be riding extremely testing his eagerness (keen) is a major concern. Therefore, the most sensible approach is to plump for the consistent ASTRA VIA. She clearly has a race of this nature within and it's perfectly relevant to acknowledge that she ran her best race to date at Taunton (2m3f) three weeks ago. She sets the benchmark under the capable 6lb claimer Isabel Williams.
