As the light dictates, the Newcastle action kick-offs with a stayers event, and a race in which Paul Nicholls saddles his first ever Flat runner (AW or turf) at Newcastle.
VOLPONE JELOIS dictated the pace when striking in a jumpers bumper at Kempton earlier in the month and whilst this rates as a sterner test, we'll take heed of the fact that he's made the long journey North from Ditcheat. Of the remainder, the suspicion is that a few of these horses are high in the weights so the lightly weighted, still fairly unexposed
Leodis could prove to be the value elsewhere.
