AISLING OSCAR has really sprouted wings for new connections on the all-weather this winter, finishing a good third on his stable debut at Wolverhampton in November prior to winning four on the bounce at this course. He could still be a step ahead of the handicapper and is taken to maintain his 100% record at Newcastle. Moyowasi and Wyvern both hit the target last time out and are feared, while Pallas Lord shouldn't be too far away either.
