Daily Racing Multiple: A Friday evening double for Newcastle

Newcastle is the venue for Friday's selections

Two seconds for Alan yesterday who failed to hit the target with his Daily Multiple bet, but he's back for Friday's action and a return to the Flat...

"Mick Appleby's runner is top weight here but with a 7lb claiming jockey on board, and he's still well treated on bits of his turf form."

King Of The South to rule again at Newcastle

16:40 Newcastle - Back King Of The South

The opening 0-95 looks a straight match-up between King Of The South and Madeeh. The latter won their previous tussle over course and distance in January, but King Of The South appears to be improving at a rate of knots and is the selection.

He took his record at Newcastle last time to 1211 with a comfortable success over course and distance in the first-time visor. He saw out the trip well despite racing freely.

With a new mark of 95 he can continue his progression at 13/8.

Headgear to do the trick with Castle

17:10 Newcastle - Back Castle
Quarter

The first-time headgear has worked for Castle Quarter before, and I am hoping it can do the trick again in the 17:10 1m handicap.

Mick Appleby's runner is top weight here but with a 7lb claiming jockey on board, and he's still well treated on bits of his turf form.

He ran at Southwell last time out in fair race for the grade with the likes of Tilsilt and Maykir in the line-up on that occasion. The visor today should help and he's a big player back at Newcastle.
