Welcome to Newcastle Racecourse for the most famous day in the racecourse calendar, The Northumberland Plate Day, a superb finale to the 2024 Northumberland Plate Festival.
My thanks go to JenningsBet for their generous sponsorship of today’s card and the prestigious three-day festival I would also like to extend my thanks to Pertemps and Skopes for their sponsorship on today’s card.
Today we shall witness the greatest flat race staged annually at Newcastle Racecourse, the JenningsBet Northumberland Plate and we are absolutely delighted to welcoming so many racegoers to the racecourse
The JenningsBet Northumberland Plate is a heritage handicap, run over two miles and is one of the highlights of the summer in British Racing We are delighted to welcome a field of twenty horses for the race, alongside a similarly strong support for the Jenningsbet Northumberland Vase
Join us on the Grandstand Lawns after racing today to enjoy Hacienda Classical, the widely acclaimed live orchestral clubbing series featuring DJ Graeme Park and Manchester Camerata Orchestra. The performance will start around 30 minutes after the last race
Our next raceday is the North East’s social highlight of the year, the Gainford Group Beeswing Ladies Day on Saturday 27 July, featuring Bongo’s Bingo Party Live after Racing Expect a fast-paced dose of Bongo’s with all the fun, dancing, and iconic prizes but with a twist…it’s Bongo’s without the Bingo! Tickets are available online or by calling into the racecourse office
From the team and myself here at Newcastle Racecourse, we wish you all an enjoyable and successful day at the racecourse
Good luck!

Mr Didier Blot Hare Group Ltd Br
TIMEFORMVIEW Established himself as the best stayer in Europe last year, winning Goodwood Cup, Cadran at Longchamp and Long Distance Cup at Ascot. Took Nottingham Listed race on return but asking an awful lot of him to defy a mark of 120. TFR HHHII BHA 120
Each horse has been given a star rating, these are defined below:
HHHHH Selected to win the race
HHHHI Good chance of being placed.
HHHII By no means out of the reckoning but at least one or two hold stronger claims
OFFICIAL BHA RATINGS EXPLAINED
HHIII Unlikely to win but not totally without hope. HIIII Can be given little or no chance.
The BHA Handicappers allot ratings to horses once they have taken part in a sufficient number of races to enable the Handicappers to make a numerical assessment of each horse’s ability. The principal purpose of the ratings is to determine the weight to be carried by each runner in handicap races, with the Handicappers aiming to provide each participant with an equal chance based on its best recent form under its optimum conditions.
A horse rated 100, for example, would be set to carry 1lb more than a horse rated 99 (ignoring any penalties or allowances). The ratings published in the racecard for handicap races are the ratings that were used to calculate the weight to be carried by each horse, whilst in nonhandicaps races the rating shown is that of each runner at the time that the entries for the race were confirmed Any subsequently published change to a rating, either up or down, is shown in brackets following the rating For novice steeple chasers, the latest hurdle race rating may be shown until such time as the Handicappers allot a separate steeple chase rating Such ratings are prefixed by the letter h.

CITY HOUSE got right back to his very best when finishing runner-up at Kempton 17 days ago, catching the eye with the rapid headway he made from further back than the winner He’s very much of interest.Wiltshire may have found conditions too quick at Newbury on his latest outing and he’s worth another chance.

A winner of his only previous start over C&D, MONTASSIB looked as good as ever when making a winning return at Doncaster in March and, far from disgraced when midfield in Group 2 company at York since, he could be worth siding with to give his leading yard a third consecutive success in this race.The very smart and admirable Kinross is a lead threat on return for the Ralph Beckett yard. Last year’s runner-up Spycatcher can also figure.

ALPHONSE LE GRANDE looked a stayer firmly on the up when quickening clear in a 2m handicap at the Chester Cup meeting and an 8lb rise in the weights might not prove sufficient to prevent this Irish challenger from following up.Tim Easterby’s bang in-form Marbuzet appeals as the one to give him most to do, although the selection’s stablemate Belgoprince is another who commands plenty of respect.

Lots with chances but the upwardly-mobile stayer TROOPER BISDEE had plenty in hand when going in at Pontefract last time and can complete his hat-trick under a 5lb penalty here. Too Friendly could emerge as the main danger now the cheekpieces go back on, although course-scorer Onesmoothoperator is also weighted to have a big say. Evaluation, Zoffee and Duke of Oxford are others who command plenty of respect in an ultra competitive race

HORSE AND JOCKEY WELFARE AT NEWCASTLE

Central to that is the track itself and our groundstaff do everything in their power to provide an optimum racing surface. On duty today we also have a dedicated and experienced team of highly-qualified Vets, Doctors and Paramedics following the action at every stage.

INVITED has shown promise to be placed on both his runs thus far so Richard Hannon’s son of Kodiac is fancied to gain a first success at the chief expense of Salisbury-scorer Ardennes who could find the concession of 5lb just too much. George Boughey’s debutant Dutch Finale appeals on paper and could also have a say, especially if the market vibes are positive.
