Newcastle Race 4 - Read Meg Nicholls' Blog At Betmgm.co.uk Handicap
KINGOFTHECARNIVAL (4) Got the prize when winning by 1 3/4L last start at the track and facing a weaker group of contenders. Has a great burst of speed late. Has the ability to take this out. SAILOR BATT (5) Subpar when 5th last run here. Expected to rebound and up against a less competitive field. Serious player. CAPTAIN BRUCE (9) First run back from a break. Mediocre performance when 6th last time at Chelmsford but will find this grade more suitable. Down in distance. Underrated. SMARTANCK (3) Weakened under pressure when 9th last start at Wolverhampton but matched against a less competitive field. Should come to hand quickly. Place chance.

Came in 4th last time at this track but matched against less formidable competition. D Nolan is in good form for this yard. Has drawn to do little work. Should definitely be in your tricast bets.

Landed the spoils when winning by 1 3/4L last start here and competing at a lower class. Finishes off strongly. Demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Serious contender.

Jumped at $4.00 and sub-standard effort when 5th last run at this venue. Expected to rebound and goes down in class. Goes well and could be a value opportunity.

Was $29.00 and disappointing run when 6th last run at Kempton but challenged by less formidable competitors. Might be ridden for luck. Will benefit with the weight drop. This won't be easy.

Back after a spell. Started $8.50 and just average when 6th last time at Chelmsford but competing in a less challenging grade. Will be down in distance. Could go close.
