AWARD DANCER is fancied to improve on an already impressive record at Newcastle by landing the Boost Your Acca-Fenwa With BetUK Handicap (4.15) at Gosforth Park today.
From four visits to the track, the Grant Tuer-trained five-year-old has got his head in front on two occasions, including when collecting over a mile here last October.
Award Dancer then missed the target on his next seven races but was back in business at Redcar 23 days ago, making his first try at a mile and three-quarters a winning one with a neck margin over Edge Of Darkness at Redcar.
Oliver Stammers’ mount should have no problem with the step back to a mile and a half – the son of Awtaad has raced at the trip just once, when trained in Ireland by Joseph O’Brien – and his course victory of 12 months ago came from this afternoon’s British Horseracing Authority rating of 76.
Later on Newcastle’s card, LADY CELIA gets the vote to follow up a last-time-out course-and-distance triumph by beating 11 opponents for the BetUK. It’s Where the UK Bets Handicap (8.00).

Alan Brown’s daughter of Mayson had three parts of a length to spare over the in-form Elzaal 17 days ago and a 4lb rise in the weights should not prevent another good account.
