Newcastle Race 1 - Free Bets With Betuk Bet Club Handicap
HIGH COURT JUDGE (1) brings form winning six of his last seven starts including a nice 2.5L victory at Southwell over 2200m eight days ago. Carries a penalty which can be overcome. Leading contender. SHOW NO FEAR (6) was an impressive course and distance winner scoring by 4.5L. May double up. COMTE DE LOIR (2) secured a narrow nose victory at Kempton tackling the trip last time. Placed 0.5L second at Southwell during January and warrants close consideration. SCOTLAND THE BRAVE (3) won latest flat start at this venue attempting the journey. Claims.

Useful gelding. Most recently won by 2.5 len at Southwell All Weather March 4 over 2200m defeating Detroit Lion carrying 61kg at $4.50. The start before that 3rd of 8 at Wolverhampton on February 18 over 2400m, 1.75 len behind Sense Of Worth carrying 61.5kg at $1.90. Does rise 2.0kg on that win, but still looks a solid chance.
