Carries double penalty but in good form
Grey Spirit carries a double penalty and it will be tough for him to give that weight away to some nice horses but he's in good form and looks to have an each-way chance. Fergus Gregory takes 3lb off his back.
He looks to have a good chance if the rain doesn't come
Getaway Luv looks sure to have a good chance if the rain doesn't come in what looks a competitive race. He won well at Huntingdon on his last start and hopefully he is a horse that can carry on improving. He shoulders a penalty, but Fergus Gregory once again claims a valuable 3lb.
We're on a revival mission but he has ability
Garrettstown reverts back to hurdles here and we're looking to build his confidence after having a fright over fences at Market Rasen on his last start. He's a horse with plenty of ability but we're on a revival mission and hopefully he can run well at a big price back in this sphere.
I'm hoping he will go close
Newcastle 12:15 - Seemingly So
Seemingly So had a good run first time over fences at Doncaster back in February and he seems in good form at home. He looks to have a nice mark of 115 and I'm hoping that he will go very close.
We're not too well in the weights against main rival
Newcastle 12:45 - Linelee King
Linelee King carries a penalty but will be suited by the track and trip here, albeit we're not very well in the weights with Dr Richard Newland's Enqarde. I'm still hopeful of a good run up in trip and with Aidan Coleman in the plate.
He's yet to deliver on the track
Newcastle 14:55 - Dundrum Wood
Dundrum Wood has been a very disappointing horse to date. He works a lot better at home than his mark suggests but is yet to deliver on the track. James King takes 5lb off here but he needs to start showing a lot more.
It's a competitive bumper but he does everything well at home
Newcastle 15:25 - Thunder Rock
Thunder Rock makes his debut under rules in what looks a competitive bumper with some nice young horses having good pedigrees. I like my lad and he does everything nicely at home, having finished second in his point-to-point, and I'd be delighted if he's in the first three.
