Urban Spirit¹⁰⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: C Lee| T: Karen McLintock| OR: 55| D

7/2

Win record of 1-23; was with Lawrence Mullaney when beaten by a rallying nose over C&D in April; joined Karen McLintock for £12,000 in May, and simply bumped into a very well-handicapped rival at Musselburgh (2m); a major player.

Form: 10-0262

Duration^b1³⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: D Nolan| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 55| CD

50/1

Won over C&D (6-4f) for Andrew Balding in August 2018; poor since joining John Jenkins for 18,000gns in November 2018; returns from a spell over hurdles wearing blinkers.

Form: 136-000

Another Lincolnday^p⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 9-3| J: Harrison Shaw⁽³⁾| T: R Menzies| OR: 51

12/1

Made a promising start for Rebecca Menzies at Wetherby in May; no real progress since on the Flat, over hurdles or on the Fibresand at Southwell; shouldn't trouble Urban Spirit on the basis of July Musselburgh form.

Form: 54/4600

Our Cilla^b¹⁵³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Ben Robinson| T: A Crook| OR: 50

100/1

No win since 2017 (when trained by Julia Fielden); beaten miles when placed in a 3m novices' handicap hurdle here in April, and that was by far the best of her six starts over hurdles; returns from a 153-day absence.

Form: 8/77859-

Put The Law On You^p³⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Jamie Gormley| T: A C Whillans| OR: 48

9/4

Maiden (0-10) who represents an in-form trainer; has finished runner-up on both Flat starts since reverting from hurdles - was beaten 5L by the subsequent Chester scorer Well Funded at Carlisle (1m6f, good to soft).

Form: 807922

Nataleena²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: A Mullen| T: B Haslam| OR: 55

5/1

Nathaniel filly (30,000gns yearling); went mighty close in defeat to Myklachi on handicap debut over C&D in August; weakened tamely when dropped back in trip (to 1m4f+) here subsequently; a possible place contender.

Form: 84627

(12)

Oromo^t¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 8-12| J: D C Costello| T: K Thornton| OR: 45| D

14/1

Winning hurdler (Perth); still seeking his first success on the Flat (0-19), arriving off the back of a recent run at Dundalk; competes off the same mark as when beaten 2¾L (second) by Clearance at Ayr (1m7f, heavy) in August.

Form: 6-75925

(13)

Sweetest Smile^b²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: J Mitchell| T: E De Giles| OR: 45

8/1

Sole win on the AW (Wolverhampton); fair third (beaten just over 2L) at odds of 20-1 over C&D in July; raced keenly before weakening (last of 11) on her most recent appearance at Chepstow; others make more appeal.

Form: 000360

(5)

Bigdabog^p1⁴²

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: Connor Murtagh⁽³⁾| T: Mrs Stella Barclay| OR: 45

150/1

Shown mainly poor form for both Eric Alston (0-6) and Stella Barclay (0-3); needs the first time cheekpieces to work the oracle in order to have a major say; an unlikely candidate.

Form: 700-000

(7)

Aussie Breeze³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: S A Gray| T: T R George| OR: 50

6/1

Runner-up to the progressive Trouble Shooter (won here on Wednesday) at Chepstow (1m4f, good) on her penultimate start; no obvious excuses at Wolverhampton; this six-race maiden is Tom George's first ever Flat runner at Newcastle (10-38; 26% jumps).

Form: 000-426

(11)

Angel Black^p1¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-3| J: Josephine Gordon| T: S L Keightley| OR: 45

50/1

Little worthwhile form; tailed off on return to action at Kempton (2m) 18 days ago; cheekpieces now applied.

Form: 78087

(4)

Ozark³²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-3| J: D Fentiman| T: J Candlish| OR: 45

80/1

Lowly-rated maiden (0-4); finished tailed off in a Wolverhampton maiden (1m4f) last month; was declared to race at the abandoned Catterick fixture on Tuesday; is very hard to fancy.

Local trainer Karen McLintock has identified the Born To Sea gelding URBAN SPIRIT as a Tapeta proven individual and she should have plenty of fun with this five-year-old in Class 5 & 6 staying handicaps at Newcastle this autumn/winter. With viable opposition appearing rather limited, a simple repeat of his latest Musselburgh second to the very well-handicapped Lever Du Soleil should see him improve his overall career statistics to a much more respectable 2-24. Horses worthy of consideration for the minor honours include Put The Law On You (stable in-form), Nataleena and Oromo.
