Lightly-raced maiden. 13/2, last of 9 in handicap at Bath (5.7f, soft). Off 7 months ahead of this debut for new yard and it's probably best to look elsewhere.

9/1
Sevem-time C&D winner. Eighth of 12 in handicap at this C&D (10/1) 20 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and this 10-y-o is dangerous to discount having slipped to an attractive mark.

Forecasts

Rainbow Rain (10/3), Carlton And Co (9/2), Lezardrieux (11/2), Rory (7/1), Noteable (8/1), Athollblair Boy (9/1), Ignac Lamar (10/1), Warminster (14/1), Holbache (14/1), Pride Of Spain (16/1), Dercol (50/1), The Princes Poet (66/1)

19:45 Newcastle - 9 December 2023 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

The consistent RAINBOW RAIN put in another good shift when hitting the crossbar over C&D and he could take some pegging back off the same mark. Athollblair Boy is 2 lb lower than for this success here during the spring and is feared on the back of an encouraging effort last time. Lezardrieux has been in good heart since returned to the all-weather and is also considered, along with Carlton And Co.
