NEWCASTLE



Going: Heavy
for the best odds go to www.BritOdds.com
BP= the best price at the time of writing



3pm £8,500 totesport.com Handicap Hurdle (0-135) 2m



1) -85P Benbyas D Carroll 9-11-12 Jason Levins(5)
Front runner who has yet to hit top form - coming back to two miles which will suit but heavy ground and the fact that he is top of the handicap are not helpful. BP= 20/1

2)1361 Texas Holdem M Smith -11-10 M J McAlister(5)
In good form this season but does not appreciate really heavy ground like he faces today. Has more to do after winning a Catterick handicap hurdle last month. BP= 11/1

3) 2-0F Dont Call Me Derek J J Quinn 5-11-10 Graham Lee
Course and distance winner. Look to be winning when came to grief two out at Musselburgh. Jumping is sloppy and is no value at this price. BP= 11/4

4) 013P Torkinking Maurice Barnes 7-11-09t Ben Orde-Powlett(7)
Made all over course and distance last season to beat Don’t Call Me Derek a length and a quarter. 5lb worse off without rider’s allowance - with it 2lb better off. Saddle slipped last time. Must have a decent chance. BP= 4/1

5) 6461 Overstrand Robert Gray -11-09b Tony Dobbin
Recent Market Rasen winner - held by Torkinking on earlier Carlisle running. BP= 12/1

6) U2P0 Andre Chenier Peter Monteith 5-11-0 Timmy Murphy
Has not shown much this season except when second on good ground at Catterick. Interesting jockey booking. BP= 14/1

7) 36/P Cita Verda Peter Monteith 8-10-13 K Renwick
Off the course for a long time before his recent poor run. BP= 33/1

8) 0415 Culcabock Lucinda Russell 6-10-12 P Buchanan(3)
Fair performer at best but was beaten a long way last time out. BP=25/1

9) F22 Double Vodka Chris Grant 5-10-10 Richard McGrath
Novice who is running in a handicap for the first time. Has yet to prove he acts on heavy ground. This is his toughest task. BP= 4/1

10) 95F4 Brave Vision Alistair Whillans 10-10-07 E Whillans(7)
In and out performer who may not be at his best on heavy ground. BP= 20/1

11) 5259 Uptown Lad R Johnson 7-10-00p Kenny Johnson
An interesting runner as he loves heavy ground and two miles. Can go well off bottom weight
BP= 8/1

Summary

TORKINKING
is in form, likes course, distance and going. The only doubt is the strength of his jockey in a finish. Get on each-way
