Verdict

A very weak and disappointing Class 5 handicap chase which isn't really befitting of a Grade 1 jumps track like Newcastle. Mick Easterby's Chasma has plenty in her favour, namely the trip and ground, whilst a recent hurdles spin at Catterick could potentially have blown away a few cobwebs for Bocasien Desbois. However, Vale of Glamorgan trainer Evan Williams saddles a couple of runners on today's Newcastle card, and his Warwick winner JONAGOLD rates as the somewhat forced advice. Fairly weighted, he should appreciate dropping back in trip and should find this race a fair bit weaker than some of those he has contested down south.
  1. Jonagold
  2. Bocasien Desbois
  3. Chasma
