Tip for this race
All today's tips ›Cavallo Pazzo heads our ratings at 59 and looks the right choice in a modest Class 6 contest over seven furlongs at Newcastle. He is two pounds better than Orbital Chime, so the edge is narrow, but it is enough to make him the one to beat in a field where few have a clear calling card. Orbital Chime is the chief danger on 57, with Hey Havana (55) and Neapolitan (54) close enough to take advantage if our pick fails to perform. Cavallo Pazzo gets the vote.
Runners
Shane Gray
Daragh Bourke 0/4
Winless in his last five, with finishes of eighth, sixth, seventh, ninth and seventh, Cavallo Pazzo is a modest sort, but he has run over today's trip and returns after 29 days off. Our rating of 59 puts him top of this nine-runner field, with a speed figure of 63 to back that up, and he drops in off an official mark of 55.

Helen Cuthbert 0/1
Ranked second of nine by our rating of 57, Orbital Chime has run over today's trip and going before and sits three pounds above his official mark of 54, a strong threat on that basis. The main risk is a 99-day absence after a string of sixth and eighth-place finishes, with a second six starts back his only top-three finish.

Stephen Hanlon 1/6
Hey Havana looks a leading threat, having been second five starts back and third three starts back, and he has run over today's trip and going before after a 21-day break. The risk is a recent dip, unplaced last time out and eighth two starts back, while still yet to win in his last six.

Tom Kiely-Marshall (3)
Linda Perratt 0/6
Trais Fluors was a winner two starts back but was only eighth last time out, and he has run over today's trip and going before. Fitness is fine after 21 days off, though 132 lb from draw 8 and an official mark of 52 leave him a midfield sort, ranked fifth of nine by our rating of 54.

Cam Hardie
Antony Brittain 1/13
Neapolitan is a leading danger on our figures, with a speed rating of 66 and a mark of 50 that looks workable, and he has run over today's trip and going before after a 31-day break. The risk is a winless run in his last five, finishing seventh on his last two starts.

Aiden Brookes
Philip Kirby 1/13
Kitaab is winless in his last six, with a fourth three starts back the best of a poor run, and he returns after 77 days off. He has run over today's trip and going, and his official mark of 48 is modest, but it is hard to make a case for him.

Andrew Mullen
Iain Jardine 6/27
Coulsty Exchange is yet to win in her last four, though a third three starts back shows some ability, and two sixths since leave her midfield. Fit after 14 days off, she has run over today's trip and going, but 128 lb from stall five is a stiff ask on an official 48.

Rhys Elliott (5)
Fred Watson 0/3
Sadiiki is hard to fancy, winless in her last five and coming off a sixth last time out, a seventh two starts back and a seventh five starts back, with nothing to suggest a sudden jump. She has run over today's trip and going and is back after 14 days, but our rating ranks her last of nine.

Connor Beasley
Jedd O'Keeffe 1/4
Fourth last time out and back in just 14 days, but an eighth two starts back and a win four starts back leave him patchy, and he has run over today's trip and going before without that being a standout. Our rating of 42 ranks him eighth of nine, so he is hard to fancy from stall 9.
