WIN WIN POWER can win his fourth race from five starts in the care of Mick Appleby by landing the Spreadex Sports Get £40 In Bonuses Handicap (5.45) at Newcastle on Friday evening.
Exceed And Excel’s son had a record of 2-24 when he arrived at Appleby’s Rutland stable.
The six-year-old is now 5-28 after hitting the ground running for his new connections, beginning with two classified stakes victories at Southwell in the first half of January.
My selection came up short in the hat-trick bid, finishing fifth in a handicap at Southwell on his penultimate outing.
But Win Win Power was back in business in the same sphere at the Rolleston venue a fortnight ago with a head call from Diamond Jill.
There is a 3lb rise in the ratings to deal with here, but the top weight is thriving and Appleby’s booking of Oisín Murphy is the icing on the cake.
Later on the Gosforth Park card, ELZAAL is fancied to boost an impressive course record in the Huge Daily Boosts Only At BetUK Handicap (8.15).
Paul Midgley’s sprinter has yet to finish out of the frame in eight visits to Newcastle and his last-time-out course-and-distance score was a personal best.
