Newcastle hosts some more interesting Monday action alongside a Listed heat over at Marseille-Borely, both live on Sky Sports Racing.
5.15 Newcastle – Courage Mon Ami bids to remain unbeaten
John & Thady Gosden’s Courage Mon Ami could hardly have looked more impressive when bolting up at Kempton in the famous Cracksman colours on debut.
The son of Frankel looks to have scared off all bar three runners in this novice heat (5:15), with William Haggas’ filly Sea Gifted the main opposition on paper.
She has run four times and has a mark of 73, one that you would think Courage Mon Ami has already ran up to and surpassed.
8.00 Newcastle – Course-and-distance victor returns
Ramon Di Loria won easily here last month and looks every chance of following up in a competitive five-furlong sprint (8:00).
