Most of the runners took part in either division one or division two of the 1m classified event here eight days ago. Unlucky MAKING A MOVE shaped best and is taken to get off the mark. Eva Rosie, who also suffered traffic issues, is second choice. From other lines of form, Concert Boy and Just Typical are respected at the weights.[Steve Boow]

Comes with risk, being a regular slow starter who has a decidedly poor strike-rate (1-39); however, has plenty of Newcastle form and holds the best chance on ratings switched to classified level.
Maiden who had no luck (repeatedly denied a clear run late on) in similar event over C&D last week; solid record (placed five times) otherwise at classified level and has possibilities granted better fortune.
Ten AW wins, the most recent in C&D classified event last March; ties in with a couple of these rivals on C&D running last week; just not certain to back up that effort, having been inconsistent of late.
Disappointing favourite here last month but has performed well in his other two Newcastle starts, notably a 7f handicap success in November (has form over 1m); major contender at the weights.
Ex-Irish maiden who posted an improved effort (close third) in C&D classified contest last week, looking a shade unlucky as he might have won with a clearer run; respected on third run for new yard.
Ran respectably from the front in similar event over C&D last week, beating all bar the market leader; has loads of other form at this venue, including two wins last year, and can't be ruled out.
Has gained both wins over C&D, namely in modest handicaps; below best in most recent Newcastle attempt but has frame possibilities on classified debut, provided he runs to his rating.
Record includes six handicap wins over C&D; not far behind Martin's Brig over C&D last week on classified debut; interesting, having been successful the last time Mikkel Mortensen was on board.
