One trainer, one jockey, one horse and one race to watch on Friday

Trainer

Roger Varian had his first winner after a few without success on Wednesday and he has four live chances for All-Weather Finals day headed by Tyrrhenian Sea, who was unlucky to lose his unbeaten record last time out, in the middle-distance championship (4.45).

In the opener (1.30) Dubai Poet drops down in class after two attempts in Group 3 company and makes his all-weather debut in a very unexposed field of six.

La Tihaty looks to bounce back from defeat last time following four wins in a row in the mile Championship (2.00). Tapeta seemed not to suit last time, but the straight track may bring a return to form.

Jockey

Hollie Doyle has a good book of rides at Newcastle on Friday, with the main contender being Internationalangel for Jane Chapple-Hyam in the Fillies’ and Mares’ Championship (3.45).

Doyle also partners the unexposed Space Cowboy, who has won his last two including over course and distance on his last start. But he could face a tough task up against the likes of the unbeaten Tiber Flow and Listed scorer El Caballo.

Archie Watson’s pair, course-and-distance winners Tempus in the Mile (2.00) and Al Zaraqaan in the middle distance (4.45), are two others out to regain the winning thread.

Horse

Bless Him has been tried at the highest level for David Simcock and has never being disgraced but he has shown a liking for a mile on a straight course.

Prime examples are his victories in the 2017 Britannia Stakes and a defeat of subsequent Group 1 winner Lord North over the straight course at Ascot, both under Jamie Spencer who rides on Friday.

Spencer is the perfect partner for this hold-up performer, who will be delivered as late as possible in the All-Weather Mile Championship (2.00) and whose record of two wins and a second from three Newcastle starts shows his liking for this surface.

Race

The All-Weather Sprint Championship (2.35) has attracted a high-class field of 14 runners with all bar one rated at least 100, including challengers from France and Ireland, where Harry’s Bar is a serial all-weather winner.

The David and Nicola-trained Venturous has an impressive course record with five wins and a second from eight course starts, including defeats of the reopposing Judicial and Mondammej on his last two visits.
