Forecasts

Bobby K (8/11), Arch Gold (11/4), Velvet Vision (11/2), Zarjaz (11/1), New Britain (20/1), Pretty Moi (100/1)

Bobby K set the benchmark for the others to aim towards when scoring at Southwell on his penultimate start, and whilst he's run well since at Lingfield, he does have a penalty to carry on his first try over 1m2f. Velvet Vision is entitled to step forward from his debut effort, with his conqueror Lumi running another solid race at this track last week, but a chance is taken on the Kevin Ryan trained newcomer ZARJAZ. The market will undoubtedly provide the necessary clues with regards his winning chance, but the Ryan/Stott partnership is always respected at Newcastle and this First Defence gelding has both speed (7f) and stamina (1m4f) influences in his pedigree.
