Newsboy’s tips from Friday’s three meetings, including 11 races live on ITV
Newsboy is backing Storm Star in the Mile Handicap and Old Harrovian in the Middle Distance Handicap to give trainer Andrew Balding an ITV double at Newcastle
STORM STAR is fancied to rack up a hat-trick for Andrew Balding by landing the BetMGM All-Weather Championships Mile Handicap (3.00) at Newcastle on Good Friday. Jason Watson’s mount returns to Gosforth Park on the back of two course-and-distance scores in 2025 and a 5lb rise for the latter success isn’t overdoing it. The in-form Balding has double prospects courtesy of OLD HARROVIAN in the BetUK All-Weather Easter Classic Middle Distance Handicap (4.07).
