Daily Racing Tips: Timeform's three best bets at Newcastle on Friday

Scarboroughdebut - 18:30 Newcastle

Scarboroughdebut showed ability in minor events over this trip and showed improved form on nursery debut at Musselburgh last time despite the market not speaking in her favour. She remains with potential for better still, and should be up to winning races from this sort of mark, so looks the one to side with.

Ivynator - 19:00 Newcastle

Ivynator offered something to work on when finishing third at Beverley on debut last month and duly showed improved form when finding only one rival too good at Lingfield last time. He was well backed on that occasion, proving his stamina for this one-mile trip, and was beaten only by a fellow improver. Ivynator didn't go down without a fight, and should find that experience aiding his development further.

Alexej - 19:30 Newcastle

Alexej made plenty of appeal on paper and looked an above-average recruit when making a winning debut at Leicester earlier this month. He was well found in the market and opened his account in smooth fashion, making good headway to lead two furlongs out and well on top at the finish. Alexej is almost certainly going to improve and is well up to defying a penalty.
