Tonight's action comes from Newcastle and Kempton and these three could be worth watching

Athollblair Boy
6.15 Newcastle
The Nigel Tinkler-trained sprinter ran a very solid race when a half-length second at this venue ten days ago. He was 2lb out of the weights that day so despite a 1lb raise he can be expected to be very competitive once again.

7.15 Newcastle
This 260,000gns purchase looks a very exciting youngster for Ed Dunlop and he could get off the mark on his second attempt here. He ran well in what looked a hot race on debut and can improve from that initial effort in what looks a much weaker contest.

8.30 Kempton
Nigel Twiston-Davies and Tom Queally team up with Unblinking who was an impressive winner when last seen on the Flat. He has subsequently been sent over hurdles, but the form of that win has taken a big boost with the second (The Last Debutante) scoring by 11 lengths on her next start.
