Newcastle Race 4 - Driving Range At High Gosforth Park Handicap Hurdle

CONISTON GEORGE (4) provided great form running clear for a 6L success at Carlisle. Up in weights and progressing so will prove hard to beat. PAY THE PIPER (2) is an admirable performer. Finished amongst the first two on six of his last eight starts and always seems to give his running. Major chance against this field. HORN CAPE (1) shaped with promise when 7L third at this track on recent return. Extra distance will help and certainly holds ability to defy the big weight. Keep safe. FINGAL'S HILL (5) races much lower than peak handicap mark. Threat to all if able to rediscover best.
