Newcastle 2.15

Newcastle 2.15 1 Hallstatt - each way @ 12/1 (Lad/Coral odds to 4th)

- the 2 mile trip here takes some getting and one horse I always want onside in such races
is HALLSTATT; he is well handicapped despite top weight, rarely runs a bad race; comes from a yard that always
does very well with a small string and in Luke Morris has an ideal exponent on the AW in this type of race. With
Ladbrokes and Coral offering odds to 4th and a lot unproven at the trip, we hope for a genuine pace and not a
tactical dawdle, and if they go a good clip, I'd be very confident of a place at least, the main danger is another
pair of old favourites in Jam Smuts and McVicar but I really fancy HALSTATT on these terms.
