Prior to today's action, Tom Lacey has a 60% strike rate with his runners at Newcastle (3 from 5), so the unraced Yeats gelding He's A Goer ranks as an interesting newcomer with Thomas O'Brien removing a handy 5lb from his back. However, the penalised Ayr scorer EMISSAIRE is preferred. Lucinda Russell's charge stayed on strongly to score on debut, and whilst the worth of that form is an unknown, this more galloping track should further play to his strengths. Of the remainder, Kindler wouldn't make masses of appeal on pedigree, but his trainer saddled the winner of a similar event at Doncaster earlier this month (Ettila De Sivola), so any market support is likely to be worth noting at the very least.
