As we head into a weekend in which, all being well, we hope to have the 1000 & 2000 Guineas as our events, we may as well initiate a three-timer & go horse racing again tonight, this time from Newcastle. The alternative was Everton v Burnley, which was hardly likely to set the pulses throbbing.
I would imagine Newcastle races on a summer'a evening is not exactly Royal Ascot, with plenty of laddish & alcohol behaviour, but each to their own I suppose.
The race will be televised Live on Sky Sports Racing for those inclined to watch.

Here's the racecard & a few pointers from SportingLife.com
https://www.sportinglife.com/racing/racecards/2019-05-03/newcastle/racecard/522885/visit-north-east-england-handicap
The race goes off at 8.30pm, so last bets at 8pm please.
Sadly, @tomgoodun was late with his selection yesterday, & so missed a winner, as he selected Arsenal. Unforch, we have to be consistent & fair with these things, so selections must be before the cut-off time.
